After all the work I put into painting the tiles, I sprayed it with matte acrylic to protect it:

Unfortunately, for some reason, a lot of the black paint and a few areas of russet and buttermilk paint reacted badly to the chemicals (it never did this before)…

So I had to go back and repaint a lot of the tiles and the trim…

Then I glued the floor into the kitchen.

Had a little visit from Cider while I was waiting for the glue to dry a little…

Then I glued in the floor of the fireplace and started on the black door trim.

Prepared and painted a window, and put it in by the fireplace.

Put in more trim, and a shelf over the stove, and the place looks like this for now.

Can’t glue in the wall or put the last door trim on because I’m waiting for the back door in the mail and I think I’ll probably have to make a taller opening for it.
