the mahogany will be used on the exterior of a house

all edges & the back side have 3 coats

the front has 2 coats & the 3rd coat will be applied on site.

Adding color

All the walls in the house were off white...

until i came along.... this color is Fired Brick SW6335

this color is Chrysanthemum SW 6347...

we found it in the countertop...

this was the first color we chose...

it adds warmth to the kitchen.

On to the Living Room...

this color is Pennywise SW6349

adding color to this house helped to enhance its beautiful design

we'll be back to add more color to this house.



Kim's Kitchen

First i sanded all the cabinets & woodwork

with the palm sander

I stripped the wallpaper & found the walls aren't drywall.

Then i went over all the woodwork & cabinets

with the original stain color

& used a high gloss polyurathane on all the wood

Since the walls are wood instead of drywall i decided to texture them with lace, this was my sample board.

So i took down my lace curtains, put them on the wall & evenly spread drywall mud over them

then pulled the lace back off the wall leaving the textured pattern of the curtain on the wall

next i primed the walls, & did a green & white faux finish to make the lace pattern stand out

kinda looks like wallpaper, 

 except when i get tired of it i can just paint it a different color

we could also make lace walls without the drywall mud texture

just using paint.
