Hardware, Bathroom and Kitchens

The hardware is on its way for the cypress cabinets in the bathroom which means I should build the drawers so that when the slides arrive I can install the drawers and hang the doors. I have another project for a client building drawers so I hope to build them together. The rest of the crown molding was installed around the cabinets and I am waiting to fasten the vanity until the warm floor is installed, we ordered the tiles for the floor and the heating mats are on their way.  The electric warm floor wires will run through the wall behind the vanity.

After fitting the sashes and door for the shower now I have them back in the shop to be sanded and finished. I need to make stops and order the glass. We are still deciding on getting clear glass or patterned glass. We chose patterned glass for the barn shower door.

The sashes for the shed were installed and need stops, the profile of the stops is still to be decided. The first two sashes were a test to see if they would work hinging from the bottom like a transom window. I was worried that the sash with two glass units would be too heavy, as long as they are carefully let down they should be fine. Two down, twelve to go.

I had a meeting about a kitchen to build in Honeydew, finish date is September. I hope to build the kitchen in the Yellow House before tackling the Honeydew project. For our kitchen I have maple that I had milled from our last house, I am excited to cut into the maple to see what I have. The kitchen room has drywall and the mudding is finished, it is ready for paint, way to go Alex! He has become very skilled with a hock and trowel.
