One of the best transformations I've ever seen. The contrast of painted trim ( can I assume that the painted trim saved sanding those thin surfaces?)and the gorgeous wood is remarkably stunning. Can't beat the combo of creative vision, determination and hard work.

I think that some times the commenters here suffer from an untreated agitated depression. This may cause this obsessive "micro-scrutinization" of minor, inconsequential things. They magnify them in their minds and comment negatively.

It is a wonderful article which brings back both older and more recent autumnal memories and makes one ready for new ones.

I understand the comments about the hazards of tires but isn't playground cushioning made from recycled tires? And when those who commented that they still see a tire, do you think that when they look at a cashmere sweater they still see the goat?

Perhaps the comment section should be reserved solely for comments on the project. Commenting angrily about someone's comment is simply arguing. Readers should be able to comment freely without being admonished or chastised by other readers. A healthy exchange of knowledge and perspective can be enlightening. Bickering is nonproductive.

Woah...I think I unintentionally flagged someone's comment while reading this on my phone. I don't even know who. Apologies for my straying thumb.

Spanish Olive has the supporting warmth I would be looking for to pull everything together while not competing with other colors in the room. Grege Avenue would be my next choice if I were looking for those same qualities with a bolder statement.

Great re-use. Saves 1 thing from the landfill, gives the kitties something fun and practical and would make me smile every time I looked at it. Also beats spending more than $200. on a cat condo or similiar construction. Very cute.

I really thought I would miss the archway. I love those details. But I honestly don't miss it at all. The open space looks so liberating. Congrats on a beautiful job.
