more auctions and triming rooms out

We were able to go to another building material auction ad we bought some things from on online auction too. We bought 6 of these old columns for $10 a piece. Chris is going to use them to edge out the entrances in the kitchen and library...and who knows what he will do with the extra ones!

My mom got this cool little table at an estate sale. The projector on top of it we bought at an online auction for $80 ad we also bought a huge retractable screen for $75. The screen is 135 inches long!

This desk we bought at an online auction for $26 it is solid wood and came from the old University Club of Kansas City.
These chairs Hunter got from his work. There were 8 of them that had been thrown in the trash. They have leather seats and are barstool height. Now we are thinking of adding a bar to our island in the kitchen!
My mom and I restained the bookshelves it the library. We have one left to do.

The gameroom bathroom has the toilet and shower hooked up. We bought a different sink for this bathroom because we saw it at the auction and loved it. We paid $75 for it.



Abi's lights trimmed out in her room.

The baseboard and closet doors are installed. The windows still have to be trimmed upstairs and we have been thinking about adding a chair rail.

The upstairs bathroom is done.


Hannah's room is trimmed out except for the windows. Next we have to work on finishing the loft area upstairs.


The kitchen backsplash is installed and grouted. Chris hooked up the appliances last night.


Hunter has added some other things to the main bathroom. This is the toilet paper holder.

The truck grill over the shower. This we think came from a 1940's Ford truck. Hunter found it at work too. Along with the gas handle that holds the toilet paper.

The bottlecaps are set and have been coated in resin. This sink has to be hooked up still but the rest of the bathroom is functional.

The main bathroom has a lot going on in it but I love it. So now we have 3 working bathrooms in our new house and the kitchen is very close to being done too. The master bedroom is the room that is the farthest from being done. The drywall is not finished yet and the wood ceiling will take some time to complete. We have just been so excited to get things done that we have been working on that stuff instead of our room. Chris is supposed to get a few days off this next week so things seem to be going pretty quickly. There is just so much little stuff left to do.
