Also, the windows are great and arched and I love that, but the poorly crafted details really detract from the beauty of them, so we are gonna "punch it up" with some custom framing.
See, that's better! The mud is on, drying and soon we do the first coat of primer for the plaster. We have used stucco extensively in the landscape designs, but have not had the opportunity to do interior clay plaster. This will be quite the event. I think I can do it.... I can do stucco, I can work clay... never put it on walls though.
What's a window without a big thick deep windowsill. And I really like to see the silhouette of a kitty in a window. So this is for the cats, and I'm sure they will love to watch the outside from here. The new rough sawn sills will be 6.5 inches deep. We are staining them a dark brown. The wood is blown down (organic, free range?) cedar from my uncles property. He custom cuts it for us and it's beautiful!

Very nice I like the new look of the windows. I have only been in my new home for about 6 months now and it still looks pretty empty.I am not much of a decorator so it will be like this for awhile LOL

Oh you are brave to begin renovating so close to christmas.... The window looks great and I'm sure the cats will be pleased!
