Chestnut floor refinished, kitchen cabinets and appliances installed by me. Also the mid 1800's windows reglazed and repainted by myself as well as all the other windows in the house. All woodworking, painting and wallpapering was done by myself. The front stairs was rebuilt by Don Bebee in 2013.

The west facing window trim was a green paint, probably Rittenhouse Green and very much appears to be untouched since it was put together in 1760's. The south facing window has a very old replacement apron but the rest appear to be original with same green paint.

So I've come the current conclusion that the house paint was originally light gray and it looks like trim was gray to. The 6 over 6 window sashes I have been preserving one at a time were likely built between 1830 -1850 according to a mullion chart I recently seen and were originally a dark green color. I may never find out the true colors of the original 12 over 12 sashes but they probably matched the house and trim color.

The bathroom was completed in May 2017. The after photos were taken 4/2020. I've been busy, what can I say. Lol
