Baluster and Stain

Steve completed the Baluster yesterday on the stairs and in the upstairs hallway. They really complete the style of the house. The white paint and stained wood balusters was just the right balance of both.

The house was busy again today with painters, they were trying to complete the final touches inside, and stain the cement porches outside. Yesterday we chose the samples of stain from a test strip Steve prepared. We chose a darker stain for the back porch and a lighter stain for the front porch. The front porch stain had not dried before we left this afternoon. The back porch had dried, but not enough to apply the sealing coat. I will have to post the completed pictures of the porches tomorrow.

The mirrors and glass are scheduled to be installed tomorrow. Not much more now!
