Done and Done

Dare I say, I think we are officially DONE...with the contractor side of things!! 

Simon and his crew finished up this week.  They lowered the mantle, installed knobs/handles on the cabinets, and touched up a few things.

Finally found some glass knobs I liked for the cabinet doors.

We ended up doing knobs on the doors and handles on the drawers.  The drawers are a little hard to get open, so Graham felt like we needed a little more to hold on to. 

Mantle is lowered!  I like it much better, and watching tv is more pleasant.  The bookshelves are still a mess. I think I'm happy with the bottom four, but I'm still working on it.

The painters also finished up yesterday!  They finally came back and worked on the kitchen cabinets some more and did all of the touching up they needed to take care of in the bathrooms, etc.  I forgot to tell them about the cabinets in the mudroom area, so they might have to come back...oops!

We finally got mirrors hung in our bathroom!  It's nice to finally be able to see ourselves when we get ready.  Graham has also been working on a new mailbox.  I don't think I have a picture of the old one, but it was camo or something awful.  The new one is looking much better!

Graham getting ready to put in our new mailbox!  The mailbox standing in the picture is our neighbor's who lives down behind us.  I believe we'll be dressing hers up a little...

New post is up and set in concrete!

All is level...

I can't actually see myself in this mirror that's over the sink, but Graham is super excited about it!  Haha...

This mirror is over my vanity area.  I've still got to get a small chair or bench or something.  I also think I'm going to do some glass shelves on the wall next to the mirror.  Didn't see the need to have 3 walls full of mirrors!

I have still been moving things around and trying to decide how I want things.  I put this chest in the den...still trying to decide on it.

My goal for these next two weeks (while I'm off work) is to get everything a situated as possible.  I still have a whole bedroom full of stuff that needs to be put out and made pretty.  ***sigh***

I'll post a completed picture of the mailbox soon.  Graham should be done in a few!
