You know when we had to stain our patio doors a while back, we also used English Chestnut so I can see even more clearly the shade of your varnish.DeniseinVAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08494518513936310345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-68311644519232431752011-05-19T19:38:07.857-04:002011-05-19T19:38:07.857-04:00Looks great - I really like it!Looks great - I really like it!JohnDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00608216150220329902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-52198141354491792602011-05-19T18:06:20.204-04:002011-05-19T18:06:20.204-04:00Give yourselves a big pat on the back-what a trans...Give yourselves a big pat on the back-what a transformation-the stairs are beautiful ! have a well deserved rest now !Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14332488482591438589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-53317910039941842282011-05-19T17:14:40.909-04:002011-05-19T17:14:40.909-04:00Looks gorgeous!

Congratulations! I know quite well how much time and effort goes into renovating an attic. I think my attic was in the same state as yours when we moved into our 1895 Victorian house 30 years ago. No insulation, bats, wasps nests, no window and no stairs for access. We had a new roof put on and while we were at it, opened up the attic to be used as an extra bedroom, installing a huge triangular window, insulation, drywall, stairs etc. After the makeover it was no longer referred to as the attic, it was now "The Loft"! I am quite aware how much work goes into keeping an old house shipshape.... well done to you and your husband!<br />BTW I sold my huge old house last year and moved to a very modern smaller house, it makes a nice change to know that I don't need to tackle any major renovations any more.<br />PS my son lives very near you in Tottenham.Shammickitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11969803866899076638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1605129043543619307.post-83524073765110375272011-05-19T07:03:24.832-04:002011-05-19T07:03:24.832-04:00Looks great!
