The library is done and the books are on the shelves. |
|
The North side of the library looks like this. |
We have been spending a lot of time sorting through boxes and trying to get stuff put away. We are moved in and have a temporary Master bedroom set up in the Gameroom until we can get ours done.
|
This is the living room. We haven't figured out curtains yet and there is not much on the walls but it is looking more like home. |
|
Chris was working on enclosing the fridge using old doors. This door we painted the glass with chalk paint. |
The other side of the fridge has a door with tin where the glass used to be.
|
Then today Chris figured out what he wanted to use for the banister going up the stairs... |
|
I still have to stain and seal everything but I think it looks great. |
|
Chris and Hunter were able to get the upstairs railing up too |
|
It was an old porch railing that Hunter brought home from work out of the dumpster so it was free! They had to bend it to get the curve right and that took some work. |
|
This is our bed in the gameroom for now. |
These are the stairs on the master bedroom side. The slabs of wood came from a tree that fell at my parents house. The tree was a pin oak that the trunk measured 44 inches across. These were milled from the limbs of the tree. A friend of my parents had a mill and he did the work for $50. They have been stained and sealed now. I will probably not update as much because of the holidays. I am sure we will work on it still a bit but not enough to write about for awhile.
