I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and Passover!
Although we didn't work this weekend, we did sneak in a visit to Patina Farm...
The plumbing fixtures are starting to be installed. In our Master Bathroom, the Waterworks Etoile Faucets were installed....
The pewter tub from The Bathworks was put into place as well.
Once the brass fixtures start to age, they will look lovely with the tub.
Nick's Waterworks Henry shower fixtures are now in place.
Leila chose the Waterworks Etoile Low Profile Wall Mount Faucet wit Cross Handles.
I selected a Kohler utility sink paired with a Barber Wilsons Faucet for the Laundry Room.
A vintage spout that we found during our trip to Belgium is being used in Steve's Art Studio/Office Bathroom (a.k.a. "The Library"). The spout will be controled by foot pedals. This will come in handy when Steve's hands are covered with paint!
The Danze Stainless Steel Parma Faucet adds a little "industrial" vibe to the chicken coop kitchen. I can't wait to see all of the shelves and cabinetry in this room!
Meanwhile in the kitchen, the Lacanche is finally in place...
and the center island is being fabricated!
The carpenters are also working on the wood doors in the Mud Room...
and the scaffolding shelves in Steve's office.
After walking around the house, Steve and I spent some time sitting on the dock by the pond.
As we walk around the pond, the Guest House Barn can be seen through the trees...
The magnificent Oak trees are always in the foreground of the house. The tree determined the design of the house.
The 300 year old Oak tree towers above the house, providing shade to the entire back courtyard. Isn't she magnificent?
And then back to the pond... I have a feeling this will become one of Steve's favorite places to paint.
I hope you enjoyed this update. As always, please feel free to ask questions in the comment section of this post.
I am heading to Round Top, Texas tomorrow to do some shopping at the Marburger Antique Show. If you happen to see me, please say "Hello"!
I'll be posting pictures on Instagram while I'm there :)
