PROJECT: LIVING ROOM!

We have been in the dwelling now over a year and that whole time the living room has been a vacant lot.
Well, hold on to your hats people, that is all about to change!

Welcome to the latest gallery/blog-- PROJECT: Living Room (it was to be called Operation: Awesome and Totally Rad!....but Kel veto'd that). Time to make it a usable space.

Cross your fingers...as this time we are doing it ourselves, no outside help.

So let's begin...here are the before shots!






So that's it. Floors and Walls. (By the way the White (super-duper-comfortable) Chair in the last shot is up for sale if anyone is interested.

Anyway, the first week saw a lot of work being done. And I am tired from it all, so there is not a lot of shots.

First we painted the large wall slightly-off white, and added Crown Molding to the whole room. If you've not done Crown Molding before....consider yourself blessed. It is a exhausting and aggravating ordeal. Right now it is up and filled-in. Next step for Crown will be sanding and painting, but that is not for a while.





























It doesn't seem like a lot yet, but trust me, CM is not fun!

Anyway, there won't be any further updates for at least a week, so to tide you over, here are some other shots.

A Makeshift workshop in the living room.


Kelly helping out...not sure what she is measuring, but I bet it will be awesome!


And here is a hint of what is to come...any guesses?



























Update you all soon....
