StuccoHouse: Warped

http://stuccohouse.blogspot.com/2014/12/warped.html

Saturday, December 20, 2014. I've been slowly plugging away at restoring my upstairs double hung window sashes. The bottom sash has been moving along steadily it has been stripped, treated with borate, primed and partially painted. I was thinking that I needed to apply pressure to the rail to see if I could train the wood back into place. I treated the frame with borate and then tried to use a couple of bungee cords to pull the rail back into place. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Research House Hist...

StuccoHouse: Notes

http://stuccohouse.blogspot.com/2015/05/notes.html

Sunday, May 24, 2015. I found this little chalkboard in a junk shop. I love how the wood stain matches that of the doors in my house. I hung it at the bottom of my stairwell so I can make notes to myself that I will see each morning. The pictures above it are little Hummel prints from my Grandmother. I've hung family photos on the landing above this wall and will continue to work my way in both directions to fill the wall with pictures eventually. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

StuccoHouse: In The Ground

http://stuccohouse.blogspot.com/2015/05/in-ground.html

Monday, May 25, 2015. Gardening has been my focus for the past few weekends. For my birthday my parents bought me a rhododendron to replace an ornamental tree (I'm drawing a blank on the name as I type) that was planted on the side of my front door when I moved in. To be honest it was never my favorite and no tears were shed when it did not survive the winter. Tears were, however, just about shed digging up the damn roots of said tree. The dead plant's roots. Ugh. Where it ended up going. And finally, th...

CN Design Blog: November 2013

http://blog.christinenelsondesign.com/2013_11_01_archive.html

Thursday, November 21, 2013. Make it Mid Century Modern! The mid century modern style has returned to this century and it is a period that reminds me of my parents, who are both artists, and some of the items in my home growing up. Our house was not mid century modern but an old parsonage house built in the early 1900’s. My mother called it the funky farmhouse since that was her background! I started doing research on the colors of mid century modern and found some delightful combinations (see possible p...

CN Design Blog: December 2013

http://blog.christinenelsondesign.com/2013_12_01_archive.html

Friday, December 20, 2013. Let there be Light! I love these bowls from Design within Reach! Here's some info about them:. 8220;I am excited about shapes and structures,” says Danish designer Herbert Krenchel. “The surface on a design object is important because it makes people want to reach out for it.”. I am very familiar with the furniture featured from Design Within Reach, however, when I received the current catalog I was enamored with the traditional mid century fixtures and how versatile they are t...

StuccoHouse: Windows Deferred

http://stuccohouse.blogspot.com/2008/01/windows-deferred.html

Thursday, January 03, 2008. After 2 years, I'm pretty sure it can no longer be accurately classified as "procrastination". It really must be called "severe mental block.". Then they sat.or rather leaned against the wall upstairs. For two years. I occasionally dusted them and thought about how I really should just reinstall them. And they sat some more. The funny thing is that I fully restored and reinstalled a number of casement windows during this time. Wow- it looks great! January 3, 2008 at 3:41 PM.
