I have a suggestion for your problem of matching new and old oak in the library. It is a technique called ammonia fuming, ask your carpenter about it. It involves placing the new oak in ammonia fumes, the stronger the faster it works. I use Janitorial strength ammonia from the hardware store. Woods like oak have a lot of tannin in them, which when exposed to air and sunlight over years turns dark, which is why old oak is dark. Ammonia will do the same job in 24-48 hours as 200 years of normal exposure to air. It can be done on raw wood or completed projects, on a single stick of oak, or a whole room at once. The color change goes deep into the wood so repairs of nicks are simple, just sand and re-wax. It goes through finishes, so you can do it to things like the kitchen cabinets even now. I suggest you try an experiment, take a small piece of oak and suspend it in a jar with some string, put a cm of ammonia in the bottom, do not let the oak touch the liquid, let it sit for a day and take it out an put some Osmo in it, you will be amazed.

I LOVE the backsplash, Billy. And you've got Gordon Ramsay's seal of approval, so who cares what other people think. Right? You are doing a fabulous job sorting out this renovation. Adding another staircase in the library would be overkill with the other stairwells just outside of it. A spiral staircase is going in the room off the chapel when you get around to it, so people will just have to wait for you to restore that to get their wish. The pieces you brought into the room look so beautiful. They're going to look spectacular when you get them properly stained and Osmoed. Just keep going, Billy, you're doing a fantastic job!! 👍 😎😘💕
