So I finally got the master bedroom painted and the barn board I ripped up from the loft of the barn to make the floors (hand) sanded and treated with Osmo Polyx Oil from FW Horch.
Love love love the oil. It’s a nice matte finish that goes well with the irregularities of the old wood. I applied it with a cheap brush and then rubbed it in with an old t-shirt. I’m so pleased to almost have a bedroom!
I dashed home from work to meet Levi the plumber and we installed the toilet and tub upstairs. This is very exciting because a) it means I can finish demo downstairs; b) it means I have a clean bathroom; c) it means my tub actually works and kicks ass (just got done with a long soak). More detailed posts to come but had show off the wonder of a real bathroom….well almost real, sink & faucet still on order. Because I agonized over purchases, for those of you in the market, the toilet is a Toto Aquia dual flush from FW Webb in South Portland and tub is from Wilbur’s antiques in Greene, a pain to paint but worth the cunningness.
can you believe somebody actually threw this chair away?
So this was a hand washin’ machine, now its going to be a pedestal for my bathroom sink. Thanks Aunt Daryl for keeping this in your barn for a million years and then giving it to me….And thanks Carl for cleaning her up and reinforcing her.
Okay, maybe not Eames but I found these little guys in the free pile at Restore….even the little ones need to take a load off .
I salvaged the floor of the loft of the barn and it is becoming my new bedroom floor. Pretty awesome wide planks. And that is totally not not me with the ruler measuring to make sure the nails are spaced out evenly and in a straight line.
