...they want their kristen + scott back.
i need to return to my day job in about 6 weeks and scott has a bunch of jobs lined up, so as much fun as we are having, we have to pick up the pace and get this done!
Scott is framing out the ceiling of the dining room at the level of the existing collar ties.
he installed a temporary ledger at one end so that he could install the framing by himself (and so i didn't have to waste my time holding the dumb end of the framing while i could be doing something else). he is what we call a big smahty.
there is going to be a flat area of ceiling where we are going to install the ceiling fan. the collar ties are kind of important so they have to stay but we didn't want to expose them, so they are what determined the height of the flat ceiling.
there isn't any heat in this space, so the quicker we frame and get our inspections, the quicker we can insulate and board and install the baseboard heaters!
so i was working on wrapping up the rough electrical (in the toasty warm heated part of the house) to prepare for the inspection. i installed the tiny (3" diam) recessed lights in the kitchen
there are going to be 2 surface lights, 10 recessed lights and 2 pendant lights (over the island)- you will be able to see this kitchen from space.
we really like the look of these lights, plus they are adjustable (and apparently teriyaki beef flavored!)
they are just so tiny, with tiny fasteners that i am always dropping- but they are all installed, all 10 of them!
