interior update

Yesterday we finished installing the tiles in the bakery, and here is what it looks like after a bit of cleaning up today. Tomorrow morning will be spent putting on the grout. The painting is just about done as well, with probably just one more coat left to do. We will also be filling in some of the spaces between the walls and the posts, and the notches at the tops of the wall posts with some cob most likely, while we are cobbing the outside of the oven. We picked up some beautiful stones today that will form a ring around the oven for the cob to sit on. The photo of the oven shows a partial layer of vermiculite/cement insulation, which will be completed during the cobbing process.
