There were some things that I didn't get when we built this house. It seemed that on some fronts I was out voted.
The first was the hardwood floors, which I now have. They were put in about 5 years ago.
The second was the master bath which was put in about 3 years ago.
Today was the front door. I had wanted a nice fancy door for the front of the house, but was out voted for that as well. Now I have it. This door has a light in it to allow natural light to enter one of the darkest corners of the house. It isn't finished yet as the new trim needs painted, but that will come fairly quickly.
This door was custom made since I wanted specific things with it such as the brass caning to match the beautiful lock set that I had bought when we built the house. I now also have my button doorbell that I bought when we first built the house but the electrician refused to install it. Instead he put up a yucky plastic thing that looked tacky and didn't belong to the rest of my house. Of course the door was a contractor's grade steel door too.
There are still a couple of things I would like to do to my house, but one thing at a time. With each thing I get done, the closer I come to having the home I envisioned when we first built this place.
