The progress has been a bit slower with the holidays and so many other things going on. We still managed to get a few things done. We started to put the license plates up on the ceiling in the mainfloor bathroom. We bought the license plates off of Craigslist from a guy who resales them. We needed so many that he just picked out a mix of them for us. We paid $2 a plate for them. A few of the plates we have gotten from antique stores or family members. Some of them even came from my grandfather's police cars in the 80's.
 The library back wall.
The idea is that the back wall of the library will be bookshelves that will have antique doors that will open up to reveal the bookshelves
 |
| The wall in the library that will be made into shelves with the old doors as the doors on the shelves got a base of OSB first. |
 |
| In the kitchen, we bought a few more pieces. The table is a restaurant prep table. We are going to somehow remake it to use as our island. We paid $75 for it. It is heated on one half of the top. |
 |
| We also bought a vent hood for over the stove for $35. It is new and never has been installed. The dishwasher we also bought from the same auction it is a Bosch and we paid $150 for it, |
 |
| Then Chris was looking on Craigslist and got lucky. We found a two chamber septic tank that was new for sale. It cost us $650...less than 1/2 price. |
