About to cross the finish line and wrap this job up when the sunset Blessed us with its presence. The Cedar came straight from the saw mill and it was a pleasure to build. We installed a waterproofing system under the decking to prevent wear and tear.

Closets can tend to become a 'catch all' space and frequently become cluttered and congested. DYI tips: 1. Don't purchase any organizing/storage items until the decluttering is completed. 2. Start by emptying the closet, completely. 3. Declutter by category (clothing, shoes, accessories, etc) - 4. Keep only the items you truly like (they make you feel good and they fit/function well). 5. Place items back so that frequently used items are most accessible. 6. Hang only what must be hung (fine materials, suits, formal wear, etc) Prevent congestion: allow the width of your fist between each hanger. Fold other items and store 'file' style on shelves or in drawers. 7. Consider adding upgrades such as pull-out drawers, trays, shoe storage.

A good way to assess the condition of a log home finish is to wait for the building to dry after being washed. Once dry you must understand what type of log home stain is on your building. If you have an oil based log home stain you should be looking at the knots and checks on the walls. These areas will turn blonde when the finish is wearing off and this indicates that you should apply one to two maintenance coats of stain. Some oil based stains now offer a clear maintenance coat and this is the better route to take but it only works if the stain is not worn to bare wood.

Moreover, the wood is extremely resistant to the influences of chemicals, as well as against attacks by vermin.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option! Photo credit: Jeff Murrey
