"Eh. No one will notice."

 To make myself feel less bad about the window stools, I took a couple pictures of what real renovating ineptitude looks like. 

These are both on the third floor, which doesn't get used a lot so it's low on the priority list to fix. Two things make me slap my forehead about these pictures. 

1. The fill-in piece of baseboard is by far the house flippers' most valiant attempt at being authentic. What kills me is that the top of the baseboard isn't stocked anywhere in town (that I've found) which means they actually had someone cut it. Both the major suppliers of replica wood have a blade that matches our base cap. And yet they still got the wrong one. 

2. The wall on the right side of the hallway is a new wall. But instead of running the new wall into the small section of wall that was already existed past the door, they built it in front of that wall. Take a flashlight and look in the gap and you'll see they didn't even bother to remove the baseboards. They just built the wall in front of those as well.
