For many of my clients this new home is their dream home and frequently they add personal touches that make these homes unique and special.
Day 5 1/2 we got tile cut as far as we can go. Tomorrow morning I'll cut in the circle to
place the "Tree of Life" artwork that we hand carried from Jordan in
2008 as a side trip from Israel. We're
real happy how nice the colors complement each other.
Our
deck tile took shape today, with the mosaic tile set and the 12" diamond
pattern selected and cut to fit with symmetry. I'll set the inner tile
tomorrow, cover with tarp to wait until after the storms before I grout.
Brenda selects and arranges all of the tiles. I cut them to fit and
set them in place. (This pattern with slate was a lot of work!)
This
octagon shape, we learned on our Israel trip, was used for the first home Christian
churches, please find a short description of S. Peter's mother-in-law's house
that we also visited in 2006. A fitting application of this shape for
where we will enjoy most of our meals.
This is the first of what looks to be three days for the
Taylor team to add stone to the house front.
Tahoe River Rock is the name of the cultured stone we selected for our
house. Individual stones are smeared
with an ample heap of mortar and then it is squished onto the wall. As Brenda realized today, "it's an art
form" to apply these stones.
Each of my clients add those special touches to make a house a home.
