This is when we started working on it. notice the walls used to be red, then cream on wood paneling with a lovely forest green carpet with mystery stains.
so tim and a few guys he hired worked on dry walling the whole thing, including a tile drop ceiling that was falling apart. then we hired someone to tape and mud it.
we also hired someone to paint, technically we hired two people to paint, but the first took off with the money. at first i thought the spots on this picture were on my lense, i cleaned it retook the pic and the same thing, i finally figured out it was just dust in the air. nasty.
finally we got a new frieze carpet installed...AMAZING! a great place for us to wrestle and play.
finally we found some furniture. we got that chair, a sleeper sofa, a coffee table and a foos ball table for under $75. we are still unloading a few book boxes and some pics for the wall, we think this will be a HUGE selling point for the house. i want to buy it! =)We have been working on this house for over 4 months...it was only supposed to be one month! story of our lives! but it has been a GREAT learning process for us. not only do we know how to do a lot more projects, we also discovered how it shed light on our own hearts. we realized how much more renovation we needed in our hearts than we thought.
