Now that the floors are finished we started the window and door trim.

Colin and Katherine did the pre-cutting and staining of most of the window and door trim which saved a lot of time.  When Lyle and I were ready to start applying the trim all we had to do was cut the pieces to the exact lenght we needed and nail it into place. In some of these pictures you can see that the lighting is being installed as we work.  Yippee!  My old time gas stove had to be put off for a while but I was able to find a old looking wall mount exhaust fan to place above the gas range we did purchase.  I am actually happy with the way it turned out, until some day when we are able to buy the old gas stove.  I do hate having to be practical but find I am pretty good at it.  Arrrgh!

                            We then started making our interior doors.
These are my pantry room doors and also hide my washer and dryer.

I hope that you can see the door pull we made on this door.  All of our interior doors have this same look in door pulls.  This is one of the things along with the old looking rusty hinges that make me think of a much earlier time in our history.
Since we have no traditional door knobs with locks, these are the bathroom door hooks which give us the privacy of having the bathroom all to ourselves. 
I believe it was the 14th or 16th of January that the stove and refrigerator were delivered and then we were ready to move in.
