Everything looks great in the snow

Friday afternoon was made a little more beautiful by a fast-arriving snowstorm. Beautiful for a few hours, at least. The view is from my new office on the 2nd floor.

More color

The new, not quite so expensive tiles in the shower.

The floor in the shower room (which you can't see in this photo) is tile that looks like wood. The idea sounds a little tacky at first, but the illusion is perfect,  and it's very practical. I hope it wears well.

Finally some color

After too long with slow, barely visible progress, things are starting to look like a finished house. The bedroom has been papered. It's a beautiful design, chosen of course by Rosa.  The paper looks to be hand-printed or something close to it. From Farrow and Bell. The guys hanging it complained about it, as is very thin and not very stiff. It looks great, though.
