Projects continue: Summer is here (with updates)

I’m getting lazy, no new entries just updating an existing post ..  some new pics of finished home projects ……………Next week its back to China for a few:…………….  Heather is back in Hawaii now, Robbie is Diving regularly.………

Time has evaporate like the virga.  Heather is home two weeks into a four week vacation. Sean graduated collage last weekend, started working on Tuesday .. has worked 10-12hr days since .. now its Sunday 6/20/10 and we are having a family BBQ this afternoon .. picture perfect So. Cal weather. Time for summer relaxing. 

I’ve managed to catch up and finish a few more home projects:   The small vanity and dressing area get a much needed face-lift. The vanity in the master bath area will get matching doors and drawers. Six doors and 8 drawers.

The dressing area was simple, a couple of matching drawers, Done!DSC00664c

The challenges with custom built-ins are just that, they are custom, each door, drawer etc is just a little different.
