John's deals...John's busy

John came across a floor model clearance at a store for appliances!

We are doing a built in 48" stainless steel fridge (flush with the counter) and a stainless steel double oven. He's good at finding those deals...

Now to finish up the kitchen design...

So much to do...John is trying to finish Julia's trim in her room (built in bookcases too) and install the closet door before the carpet arrives on Monday. Yahoo! Her room will finally be done and she will get to move in rather than live among the boxes in the basement.

So far the book cases are looking nice. John has to make sure they are level and square (those tools will be your best friend). John didn't do the framing of the room and some nooks and crannies aren't as square as he would have made them if he did it himself (he is very picky and would still be working on framing the room rather than it being ready for carpet like it is now!). You don't notice the imperfections until you are trying to do something exact like built in bookcases. I guess that is why they make shims and trim.
