easy open windows!

library windows

these windows, original to the house, came with a neat feature!

easy open!

when we removed the trim, we found the old windows still had the original weights, not attached but still in place...

newly working weights

nick replaced the ropes on the weights and now these babies are good as new!

the goal:

to rehab this very loved home. our mission, in keeping with our values we strive for in daily life, is to be as "green" as we can. we are not perfect and do not claim to be the best at being "green", but we do try very hard to walk softly on this earth. in renovating our home, we want to keep as much out of the landfill as possible. we want to use recycled products when we can. we want to use earth friendly products when we can. we want to reuse as much as possible. its going to be a challenge. we are going to have to be creative! but i think we are up for it!
