A DIY Photoset: Rustic Window Trim

If you consider that I only have one window out of fourteen trimmed, my prospects of ever not living in a garage begin to look rather bleak. So this post is a little diversionary tactic I like to call “Hey! Look what I did!” instead of the less enthusiastic “Dear god, the neighbors are going to be seeing me in various states of undress for the next year since I will never get trim on all of these windows.”

Hey! Look what I did!

You may have seen this window in the latest DIY house addition update, or a few weeks ago when I posted a link to the How-To article over on Curbly.

If you want the nitty-gritty head over there, but for those of you who don’t want to strain your index fingers with that extra click, here is a visual explanation for how to create this rustic trim and header.

See? Words are totally overrated. Also, I installed almost 500 four-inch tiles this weekend which basically killed off whatever brain function I usually have to but coherent sentences together. Weak, but true.
