Lofty Trim Project

We got busy again - want to finish the work in the loft & move on down to the next level. Seems like time is running out, but that's the way it goes when you want things to be done...

Phil first installed the cedar ceiling trim & then worked on the windows.

These photos show all the trim finished with a couple coats of tung oil applied. We are using tung oil on all the cedar trim - it brings out the colours (reds, yellows, purples) & is a little different than varathane. We will probably have to re-apply the tung oil in a few years after it's all been exposed to the sun & has had a chance to season & fade a bit.














This is just a close-up of the detail at the ceiling peak around the central ceiling beam.








This is the trim around the glass art piece installed in the wall. I was pleasantly surprised that Phil made the trim so large - he just needs to trim it out on the other side of the wall - which should be tricky....don't know if we have a ladder tall enough for him to reach it easily!!

Your trim looks great. I especially love the trim around the glass panel. Hope all is well in Bamfield.
