Project: Plate Rail and Stenciling

Bob and contractor Bob Ryley review costs for the Victorian-style remodel-and-build project in Martha’s Vineyard, MA.

Bob confers with artist Margo Datz about decorative striping and stenciling in the master bedroom. She demonstrates for Bob how to add a stencil pattern to painted wall trim.

In the kitchen, where the white pine cabinets have been installed, Bob Ryley demonstrates how to adjust a European door hinge before he finishes putting in a plate shelf that runs the roof’s perimeter.
