Angie Smithson Lots of millwork today..gratifying but time consuming. We installed the petite ceiling trim and corner trims, just have window trims still to finish. Caulked and filled nail holes, lots of painting and touch up to do tomorrow. It's coming along nicely!
Day three of the bedroom makeover with Angie Smithson and The Kinfolk Group. We got the rest of the wainscoting panels installed today, as well as the baseboard. We started the ceiling trim (not crown. This is a more budget friendly version and much easier/faster to install), but our saw broke!! Tomorrow it's just Dad and I, we will finish the ceiling trim and install the outside/inside corners, and trim around windows. I have a lot of nail holes to fill, caulking and then touch up painting to do after that. But it's coming along nicely! These videos are just a fun way to lift the veil for you to see what goes into making changes...they just take help and time.
My most challenging client to date..my 13 year old daughter. He bedroom dreams began at 11 years old and mandated everything ballet/pink/black bows. I breathed and waited. Next came coastal vibes/blues, I waited. Then dark olive greens/moody, I was excited but waited. We found a wallpaper she fell in love with and I ran with it as the base to this soon to be created sanctuary. It's taken us two years to collect the objects of desire to fulfill this dream. Join us on this journey that will take us to her final destination..a room she longs to create, in...

Every single day my passion for old things (including Joe), increases. It's important to preserve and understand history, and the sheer genius of good craftsmenship. At The Kinfolk Group, we revere the trades that are disappearing with our old timers. Mixing antique pieces into our new or remodeled homes adds so much value and warmth. It's a core value within our ethos.
This apothecary cabinet was in total disrepair. Upon investigation, its glass front handles show names of items that each drawer housed, in the general store-pharmacy where it sat. The nail heads date the cabinet to between 1810-1840. She has handmade dovetailed drawers, which are painstaking and time consuming to build..like people (they just don't make em' like this anymore). Ater days with one of my local craftsmen, new life has been breathed back into her.
It's worthwhile to preserve old, broken things (me included), i remind myself each moment.
Meet Beryl, she is 8' long. Thick and lovely (i want to be like her)...
