The one you have in the house I believe were beech and you stained them. The one in the guest house is Oak.Did you stain them as well?If so with what color? I am putting the oak in my kitchen and adore the ones you have.

I went to the Ikea site and still could not tell what is required to complete the bed. Our nearest store is 3 hours away. ;-( Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my question.

The pipes have been wrapped in insulation but the rest of the guest house is only insulated in the walls. It had been a rental house before we bought it so people did live there year round. For us, most of our guests come during the warmer months when the fireplace (heat) is only really needed on a cool night. <br />Best, Trina Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371726009244498344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804818183817823900.post-31076450041805651862013-01-27T11:38:56.870-05:002013-01-27T11:38:56.870-05:00I have loved seeing these process posts.

Since this is a renovation, I was wondering if Mike had to insulate the walls or install new plumbing to keep pipes from freezing during the winter. Is the new electric fireplace on an automatic themostat for climate control? We restored a 100 year old farmhouse, so I am always interested in the "behind the walls" details.
