Crest Ave. Rooster. Sunday, March 30, 2008. We finally replace all the windows. No more water leaking in the house! I assume that also means no more heat/cold leaking in our out, too. At least not as much heat/cold leaking in and out. . . Some other exciting features of the new windows - working locks (good-bye burglar bars! And screens. (Oh - and Chad made the curtains with our new sewing machine.). Friends of Rooster Haus 2. Two developments on the animal friend front:. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Crest Ave. Rooster: July 2009
http://crestavenuerooster.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Crest Ave. Rooster. Sunday, July 5, 2009. Chad and I have been painting since mid-May, but still painting chores abound! Saving a cool five grand sounded like a good idea, so we decided to sock that money away for the day we'll inevitably need new siding. That means painting the exterior on our own. Chad did all the high bits. The push-out window. The eaves. The carport. But we're closer to finish than start, and that's a good feeling. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). SPRUCE CLASS WEBSITE HAS MOVED.

http://crestavenuerooster.blogspot.com/2009/02/chair.html
Crest Ave. Rooster. Sunday, February 8, 2009. This weekend I took an upholstery class. I started with this chair, Sneezy. The ladies of Spruce Upholstery (where we took the class) found it in an old asylum in Brady, TX. Spooky. Dusty. Stretched and stapled the fabric and cording on the seat and began work on the back, which involved a lot of the same materials (burlap, foam, dacron and STAPLES! Here's the finished product. So excited for Sneezy to join the Roosterhaus living room! Magic Trick in April.

Crest Ave. Rooster. Sunday, February 1, 2009. Chad and I were fond of the light blue but felt that it was, perhaps, too light. Since we were so fond of the blue we found for barn door #2, we decided to try one step down in an exterior satin. Here is the result. February 5, 2009 at 7:41 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
