2 weeks til we move in!!! So I'm sure you're wondering, is it actually ready? Doing quite good but still a few details to get done. Waiting for our glass handrails, which are expected this week and those are necessary to get the occupancy permit by the city so fingers are crossed that it goes off without any glitches. Also still waiting for our 2nd level bathroom vanity counters so our bathroom sinks are not hooked up as well. Other than that, some trim, paint touch ups, the fireplace, some kitchen details and small details with the electrical and plumbing are to be completed (that's all). Hoping to have most of it done this week in order to get this place cleaned up before moving in. Not losing sleep at all over the mess by the way. A lot of you have been asking for more pictures so here's some updates. Most of the finishes are covered due to all the work going on so it's hard to give pictures of the total room. Once it's complete and cleaned up, we plan on posting as much as we can get on camera to share. It's starting to sink in that we really did this. Kinda unbelievable and have I mentioned kinda exhausted?
Some exterior pictures now that it's almost totally complete, just some minor finishing touches are to be done, including the exterior wood screen on the long front window and of course the landscaping which will be done in the spring.
And had to share a pic of the mailbox
Of course we had to share some of Zara's room. Here's her bright wall-she actually picked the colour. Keeping green.
And every girl needs a great closet-especially mine!! Here she is with her new wall to wall Pax system from Ikea.
Ok, I guess mommy needed a closet too. Here's a view from the inside (it's not quite complete yet) This is one third of it from one angle.
Let there be light. It was really exicting seeing the lights go up (and on) Here's a few of the fixtures.
The front entrance globes by day.
And by night
The pendants over the kitchen island
One of the bathroom vanity lights
The hardware.
I love my door handles.
Not just any toilet.
Here's the Bernini dual flush system (keeping green to save water)
The ensuite shower.
Once this is all done I may just stand in those jets for an hour.
Powder room faucet.
Of course our guests deserve nothing less than to wash their hands in a waterfall.
And last but definetely not least, my new baby. The Grohe kitchen faucet. I know alot of you have been asking for pictures of the kitchen and I'll be happy to share the pics once it's complete but here's another little peak at one of the highlights including a piece of the quartz counters (on the island overlooking the great room)
Stay tuned for the finished photos to come!!
