Special addition
Article Abstract:
Jackie and Dennis Frodsham are homeowners who carefully plan their new two-story great room wing to blend with the rest of their home, featuring beadboard walls and ceilings, where the floor and cabinets are crafted with materials salvaged from the house. The cozy century old Craftsman cottage, nestled in a lovely, historic neighbourhood in Fairhope, Alabama is perfect for them and they are going to do much of the work themselves, reusing a lot of vintage materials from the house.
