We're Floored

It’s been very, very busy inside of the Joseph Maynard Project as we ready the house to move in (yes, we are almost there!).

A couple of highlights:

Last weekend our flooring – milled from pine logs in Brimfield, MA – was delivered. After hand beveling more than 600 feet of boards to achieve the look we desire, we’ve laid most of the floor. And it’s looking great!

Take a a peak at some of the (still unfinished) boards that we’ve installed (above and right).

Also, we’ve salvaged some great antique wood from the loft floor in our barn. New England Country plans to use the old, worn boards for furniture and cabinetry throughout our home. This will perfectly compliment our modern, farmhouse style.
Lastly, we’ve been giving our walls a bit of attention as well – with an Early-American style plaster technique by New England Country. Photos coming soon.
