Subfloor and Hardwood Sample

Got part of the subfloor installed in the laundry room.  Yesterday I also picked up a 20sqft sample of the hardwood flooring I plan to use in the kitchen.  The laundry room will actually be tiled, but this is a good spot to do a color test.  It's a locally-sourced zebrawood.  I looked at some of the engineered woods and just didn't care for them.  This is solid, tongue and groove hardwood, so it can be refinished and restained any number of times.  I will probably stain it just a hair darker than it looks now.  I'll do some stain tests as I get closer to doing the flooring.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower.  1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan.  Tested and approved by the inspector.  Next is upper pan and then tile.

Accent Paint

Here the paint is about 1/2 done, so with one coat it's a little splotchy on the wall, but gives a good feel for the color.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.
