Let There Be Trim!

You may remember our infamous door project from back in August. You may also remember that we left it grossly unfinished due to a complication with the trim not fitting on the hinge side of the door.

This past weekend, Husband and one of his colleagues finally had time to bust out the miter saw (yeah, we apparently own one of those too), and hide all those door-innards behind some snazzy new trim.  They cut out notches for the hinges to rest in, and nailed the trim to the wall.  After some spackling, sanding, and painting - the "new" lather, rinse, repeat - the door looks as good as new (which it ought to, because it is)!

Except for the small gaps between the trim and baseboard, and shelf bracket on your right side, of course.  The baseboard will be filled eventually, but the shelf bracket is staying as-is.  Honestly, I like that it's slightly imperfect - a constant reminder of our very first project, gone awry.
