Lake House Knotty Pine Paneling Restoration


Here are some after pictures of the paneling restoration.  Each of these boards was removed, numbered, stripped and sanded.  A white stain was added and completed with two coats of tung oil.  The cabin is in a wooded area and the original orange paneling seemed to darken the house.  We decided to refinish it in an updated bright finish.  In the corner is a shelf made from a rescued door.

Lake House Kitchen Remodel




I am finally getting around to posting some pictures of the lake house kitchen redo.  We added a wall of hickory cabinets from Lowes as we were unsuccessful in finding additional metal ones.  I will post the restored metal ones later.

Wall Cornice Makeover


During the clean out phase of our cabin restoration we found these cornices in the crawl space.  Aside from being very dirty, they were in good condition.  So home they went for a makeover.  We added an applique and gave them a fresh coat of paint.  A plate rail was added so it can be used as a shelf.  I sold three of these and this is the last one that has been finished.  The finished one is larger than the one pictured.
