Several years ago, Jeremy replaced our big living room windows with new wood windows. We chose to use new construction wood windows thinking it would help us keep the look of the original wood in our old home--rather than replacement windows with white plastic trim. However, these windows weren't the exact same size as the originals and we didn't get the trim put back up...
So our living room window has been without trim for years. I've avoided taking pictures near it, but this is what it looked like...
A board has been missing at the back of the window bench where there was a sill before, so it's just been open and exposed. Spiders love it.
It was insulated, and we could see the proof.
Well, this past weekend our talented word-working friend Shannon helped us once again! He and Jeremy spent half the day filling in the extra spots and putting up the original trim to finish the window! Today I put a coat of stain on and will do another before sealing it, but it sure makes a difference in the room to have the trim completed!
Here is the end of the room right now. Soon we will have to put up the curtains I bought.
We make slow progress on our old home, but each step is exciting.
