Love all that glass and light that comes in.

Yes, it's such a big difference! Can't wait to have my coffee in the morning with the sun shining through.

Doors are in! Tomorrow the electrician is here to fix stuff upstairs and after he's gone we start laying the cork floor in the bedrooms!

That's a huge improvement! So light and airy.

For some reason when you said sliding door in the living room I pictured a sliding barn door separating rooms...

And we have a finished floor and working lights! Yeah!
It was a late one, we were done after 1 am.
Cork needed 2 coats of paint and we started at 2 pm after the electrician left.
Happy with the result, but my knees are spent.

Handrail on the stairs! Starting to look like a normal house now.

Those are gorgeous handrails, so much character.
I bet you made them didn't you?

I wish I had, but wouldn't have had the time for it now. My DW ordered them online.
