2 Down 5 to Go!

So we finished the girls room! Here's all the before and after pics. It had pink carpet that stunk like animals, before I took the pics.

Before: Dry rotted window that was very drafty!

After: New window! No more drafts!



Before: Termite damage to the wall. Out dated wallpaper on ceiling.

After: We filled in all the termite holes and painted the ceiling. We also caulked all the seams and cracks in the outer walls to ensure no more drafts or bugs.


Before

After


Before: The closet was huge and a waste of space because it took up the whole wall and wasn't built very well.

After: So we cut the closet in half and made a cute little nook and added shelves in the closet for more storage space.


Before: The other end of the closet

After: The other end of the closet. I am going to put a curtain up over the door way. Pete built it so we could easily add a door in the future if we wanted to.

I haven't hung up all the pics I've been saving for the "Girls room" and the curtains aren't what I want them to be but, it was so much fun putting this girls room together. Zach and Elora have shared a room their whole lives so this was the first time I was able to decorate a girls room and I would recommend it to anyone!

So that is what we've been working on through march. Now we are going to move on to the upstairs bathroom! It will probably take us more than a month to finish it though. But it will be sooooo nice when it's done!

Yeah for you guys!!! We know what it is like to knock out the rooms one by one. It will be worth it!. The bathroom won't be as bad as you think.
