The hubby and I stopped at the house on the way home from work last night to take in some more progress at the casa. Nothing too crazy had changed since we had stopped in during our lunch hour. The only things big enough to report....the spackle crew is officially done, the basement window is complete, we had some light bulbs screwed into the hallway high hats {we have no light switch to turn them off yet...hmmmm}, and more doors were hung.

Hoorayyy for having some bathroom and closets doors! BOOOOO for the brass hinges on
all of the doors. Ummm, the 1990's called, and they want all their brass back.
When doors were discussed with our contractor, I made sure that he knew we wanted brushed nickel finishes on all the doors. I picked out all brushed nickel for our exterior doors, and when he ordered our interior doors, I thought he knew. Luckily, when Pete asked how difficult it'd be to switch everything out to suit our preference, he said it'd be no big deal. He said he figured we'd be going for a more modern look and he just used the brass to get everything hung and in place. Hmmm, sounds like he just created twice the work for himself, but whatever floats his boat! As long as we don't end up with brass on our new doors, I'm good to go!
And don't get me wrong....I love lots of finishes! Chrome, brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze, gold {if done tastefully}....but I just can't get on board will brass. Yuck!!!
