George Washington was no ordinary man and the stone used on the exterior of his house was no ordinary stone. In fact, it wasn't stone at all! Washington employed a special technique in which he made his mansion look as if it were made of sandstone by cutting boards in the shape of blocks and covering them with paint and sand. Stone, after all, was much more chic than wood.
