Bedroom finished

This is how the bedroom turned out. I'd say it's okay!

More pics!

We overhauled the porch, it is our new favorite spot. If you can't find Java, you can look for her sitting on the couch watching the world go by.

Finally got the bathroom's final touches done!

Were in!

Construction is still going on in the bathroom/bedroom but we officially moved in. We have a couple of rooms of sanity right now and I can say it feels wonderful. We can't wait for all of you to come and say hello!

Finished floors = beautiful!

This photo you can see where sometime in the good'ol'days they had the wood floors exposed on the outside, some sort of rug permantly attached to the middle of the floor on the inside. Unfortunately, this room is as good as could get. Luckily, O has beautiful rugs to place over. This will be our bedroom. New closets as well!


This is the porch with the putting green type carpet over it.

Some more photos of old crap!

Here are some photos that O had taken, thought we would document them up for all of you to see. This is the porch. Putting green, over indoor/outdoor carpet, over sticky black adhesive, resulted in pure disaster when the washing machine flooded. Time for that nasty stuff to go...



Oops, no matter how careful you are, really old PVC pipes break with ease...note to self...learn where water shut offs are prior to demo work.



True Vintage





Just when you thought you were done with carpet, linoleum rears its ugly head.

Uhhhhh, a little overwhelming right now

The upstairs bedrooms are sanded and prepped for sealing. Amazingly beautiful longleaf pine. The brothers that are doing the hardwood refinishing say that this particular wood is unable to be bought new anymore for hardwoods. He says that the only way we could ever get more of it would be to find it torn out of an old home. It is so unbelievable that this was covered up with carpet. Next photos should be even more amazing!





The bathroom demo is completed. Electricians and plumbers start next week. The holes in the floor were done to gain access to a little more of the hardwood flooring. We salvaged some from the bathroom to put into the downstairs bedroom where there were some trouble spots.

Bathroom Demolition Derby!
