a sample of the stone was finished yesterday, and i am THRILLED!
this stone is exactly what we found on our lot as we were digging out our foundation. i love that it is a local stone, and i am really happy with the "messy", rough look with the brushed and raked mortar joints.
the mortar is going to dry a lighter gray color (you can see a dry section at the very bottom of the wall)
what do you think??

Love it! Can't wait to see the full finished exterior.
ReplyDeleteI think it looks awesome! I am excited to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteI'm in love!!! I've always wanted stone on my house and I'm so glad to see you getting it on your new home :)
ReplyDeleteI think it will make your house look like it has been there all along and the others where built around it. Btw I happened upon your home on the way to a temple you couldn't have picked a better spot. I have noticed many homes in the area with the same stone work.
ReplyDeleteLooking great! Can't wait to see the finished mortar colour and how the finished exterior comes together.

It looks great! The contractors may have doubted you at first, but I doubt this will be last time they use this treatment! Can't wait to see the rest of the exterior come together!
ReplyDeleteIt looks wonderful! I wish I had your vision in my own home! :)
