Oolala! Love the glass block window. I'm so impressed that you did this all yourself, panzade. Keep those pictures coming.

I liked the 8x8 tiles for the color they added.
I decided on the oversized base trim to match the plinth blocks on the door

That just about wraps it up folks. Thank you for staying through the show...
If anybody is thinking of doing their own remodel I'll be glad to share my experience.

Judging by the trim, the baseboards, and the door, I would say your house was built somewhere in the late 20's or early 30''s. Would I be correct?

nice work, Panzade.

I was hoping to see the floor. <nodding> It all works so well together.
Glass blocks interest me. I'm not sure I've ever seen them on an exterior wall round here. I like it.

Damn Gus.You have an unerring eye. That style was in vogue in the 20's but it's actually all new trim I installed to get that look. I ripped out all that 80's clamshell crap.
