Stone looks great!

 

[LeighHop]

Looking great!

Does your stone guy say why he doesn't think it will look good? I'd prefer a repeat of materials you've already used. You've made lovely choices, I'm not sure I'd want to add another finish to the mix.

 

[kimkats]

Yeah what she ^^^^ said................She put into words what I was thinking!

 

[Amazed]

He thinks the linear looks weird the taller it gets. It’s a more modern look but I am okay with it.

 

[Amazed]

Is this correct? I thought we were doing hidden sheers.

 

[kimkats]

Can you get us the model numbers and any info about those sheers so we can look them up and see if this is how they are meant to be installed?

Also look at your contract. What does IT say about which ones you were to get?

Got some looking and checking to do on this one.

 

[Amazed]

My contract only says(3) 24 inch sheers. No if’s was on model number. I am going to reach out to my PB today. He was not onside when the craftsman came yesterday and did the work.

 

[Amazed]

PB says the excess gets trimmed off. Thanks goodness. I was really concerned.

Amazing how these things work out...if it had been me I would have been all freaked out and bugging the heck out of Kim and others

 

[LeighHop]

Glad you are sticking to your guns on the fireplace. You have lovely taste, it will look fantastic.

PB says the excess gets trimmed off. Thanks goodness. I was really concerned.

Ummmmmmmmmmmm what will they trim it with? I am a little worried about them cutting into the rock already there.......Hoping you will be there to look over their shoulders while they do the work. It might make them go slow and easy and use extra care say Kim the worry wort! LOL

Kim (Cliff, you and me both!!! I was holding back on saying much BUT man I was worried about them trying to leave it!)

 

[Amazed]

Kim I think it is plexiglass they trim. That’s what is hanging out. Looks like it is mortared in place and then the trim off the overhang.

 

[kimkats]

Oh that should be easy to cut! Good!!

Kim

 

[Amazed]

They cleaned out the pool. Getting ready for plaster I think. Also you can see the sheers are indeed trimmed down and less noticeable.

 

[kimkats]

Sheers? What sheers? LOL SO close!!!!

Almost there...

 

[Amazed]

We decided to go ahead and tile the stools. They did a lovely round travertine top too. Still trying to decide what color quartzscape. The Montego Bay would be beautiful but I know how people freak out with green....

 

[ctrav]

Nicely done...

 

[jstblush]

Wow, that's beautiful!
