Wanted to wish the best with your renovation and thank you for sharing all the images and stories with us. I am also making much smaller renovations to our newly purchased 1926 stucco bungalow in Portland, OR. I am currently beginning to strip the window and door mouldings of the many layers of paint to refinish the fir underneath. I don’t know too much about the actual refinishing process and wondered what type of wood your mouldings are (i can’t tell from the pics) I am particularly interested in how you refinished the wood (it looks great!) and any good products you might have used. I am currently using a chemical stripper to get the paint off…. All the best and keep posting your progress..its very inspiring!
Thanks-
Dennis
Thanks for your kind message. We get asked about our woodwork often. I will write an entry explaining how our woodwork was refinished. Best of luck with your project!
