The house is a big house and we still are not done with it. Honestly, I got a bit tired of working on it all by myself. With the exception of the roof and hanging the drywall, I have done all the work myself with a hand now and then from my Renee. Pictures are some times more fun than words so lets look at some more pictures.
The Master Bathroom
These are pictures of the old master bath (left) and the guest bath (right) The two bathrooms backed up to each other and we tore both of them out and combined them to make 1 new guest bath. We had to close off the entrance to the master bath from the master bed room of course. I don’t have pictures of the new guest bathroom yet. That is one of the things I have not finished yet.
The house had another large room off the hallway near the kitchen that use to be used for a play room/office. I guted that room and split it up into a laundry room, a master bath room, and a walk-in closet for the master bedroom. We still havent picked out a floor for the master bath. We just havent found anything we really like yet. We did have some left over carpet from the living room and have just thrown a piece of it in there for now. (The play room/office and new bath)
Master Bedroom
The master bed room had two small closets in it that I took out to make the room bigger. I don’t have pictures of the room before I started work but I do have a picture of the tray ceiling I put in. I thought it was a nice touch and Renee likes it.
The Dining room
Like I mentioned in an earlier post, the house had, and i say “had”, some really beautiful hard wood floors at one time. The floors sat water for nearly 6 months though. After letting them dry out I felt that I could salvage them and decided to refinish them. This is a picture of the dining room and I like the floors in there the best. I think because its nice and bright in there.
The Living Room
The only room that we did not refinish the floors was in the Living room. We had to use some of the slats in there to finish the master bedroom. We like carpet in there better anyway. You know, its the room you never go in anyway.
This is the living room and I think its one of my favorite before and after pictures. Wonder why?
And to all a good night!
