But first, a Melissa and Doug bedroom furniture set that I found on amazon.com for half the price I usually see:

Looks good in that space, especially for the price! Well it will look better when I get around to finishing the room...

After much chugging along, I have finally finished the pieces for the bay windows, so here I am with the kitchen bay:

It needs much spackle, and some trim in the interior above the window casing. I'll give it a chance to set while I work on the other bays. That space on the exterior, between the top window trim and the horizontal roof trim, I usually see painted in the exterior house color-- well my roof trim is a bit uneven in width and will take some spackle-work so I don't know how much room will be left over, but I might put a strip of pre-painted siding there, is what I was thinking...
