Whilst I’ve been knee deep in varnish the past few days, Peter our stonemason has removed/replaced the rotten lintel in the cloakroom and rebuilt the wall above. Steve has made a new cloakroom door to match the reclaimed ones. More sanding and painting for me this week but it’s really starting to come together #culdeesrenovation
Varnishing this staircase must be like painting the forth bridge. 2hrs inbetween coats the tin says. By the time I’m at the bottom we are good to go from the top again 🙈#culdeesmansionhouseandcastle #culdeesrenovation #ronsealdiamondhardfloorpaint
Now we just need a ton (or two) of plants 🌱 #culdeesrenovation #teamfamily #pondlife
Then this ... 🤣😂
Rob & Richard’s solution to hauling the earth up into the steep pond edges in the castle sunken garden 🤣 #culdeesrenovation
Only in Scotland can you be digging the garden in the sunshine ☀️ one minute and then get snowed on!
Whilst mum and I attempted to remove the dust from the house, Rob spent the evening cleaning the brass stair rods. Originally from the castle hallway staircase.
Culdees estate is carpeted by stunning daffodils just now. Looking fabulous
