Concrete Board on HearthGary began to install concrete board in the cabin. The concrete board must be installed in areas where tile or river rock will be placed. This is a picture of the hearth in the corner of the great room. We will be purchasing a new wood stove later this year. The concrete board will go up the wall, too. There will be a mantel about five feet above the hearth. Gary is hoping to build a mantel that will incorporate a log.
PantryThis is the kitchen pantry. Concrete board is installed where river rock will be placed. The river rock doesn't have to be installed to pass the final inspection, so when we move in, it will still look unfinished for awhile. You'll just have to use your imagination and pretend that there is river rock there!
