WE HEART STONE!

October 2007.


We used our stone budget for the entire house on just our chimney.
Crazy... yes, but we love stone.


It started out with a small sample patch...


...and grew into this giant, beautiful piece of art!


These three are responsible - Jeff, Bob and Reb.
I can't say enough about what a wonderful job they did (and super nice guys too). It truly is a piece of art and hands down my favorite thing about the cabin. We had planned on using faux cultured stone to keep our budget in check but neither D & I weren't thrilled with using anything fake anywhere. D ran into Jeff and he talked to us about the concept using a 'thinstone' - real stone that's been cut (easy to apply and didn't require any extra footings for weight). We were sold and it's amazing and so worth it!
