Here's the new bookcase in the great room. Dave chose the detail on the top. Cool, eh?
The new window seat next to the bookcase. Notice two rolls of paper towels all ready to clean up after errant puppies. Thank goodness for enzyme cleaners.
These are the two bookshelves on either side of the fireplace.
Brian and Annalyn, with some much appreciated help from Annalyn's brother Ben and sister-in-law Renee, finally began tiling the entryway. We are doing a mosaic of the tree of life. We'll keep you posted on the progress.

Ta da! The new banister. I saw a photo in a magazine of one like this, so we ordered the parts from Huetter Mill and Dave M., our carpenter, figured out how to make it!
Looking down the stairs.
Looking up the stairs.
Annalyn designed the modified square opening to the top of the stairs. We had to consult an architect, who consulted an engineer, to make sure it would stand up when it was built, but once again, it was Dave M. who figured out how to build it.
