Progress Report
Two burly male friends came over yesterday to move the behemoth bookcase upstairs. Today, I installed the shiplapped and beaded back and moved it into its final position. Next, I'll build the crown molding and once that's added to the top, I can cross this one off my proj
ect list.

I love that your mom named herself fruit loop. It seems just right. :) Love you, fruit loop!
ReplyDeleteThe bookcase it BEAUTIFUL!!! My books want to purch themselve there too. They are all of a sudden discontented with their current home. Demanding little books!

ReplyDeleteKari I love the book case. The flag is an amazing thing to have I wish I had one like it. Keep it well and protect it. Thank you for keeping such a thing alive and well.
