Mike has removed all of the paper thin "sheet rock" from the walls of the living room and also the ceiling. He is going to add insulation to the walls and ceiling before putting new sheet rock up. He's been working at the house at night after dinner and helping get the girls in bed. He's been pulling some long hours. But his hard work will pay off. It already looks much more different than it did when we bought it. Our tenants that rent the other side are moving the last of their things today, so we can begin renovating that side of the house too!
Mike said this was on the back of the linoleum he took up from the kitchen. Their were two layers of linoleum!
One layer of linoleum pulled up, one layer to go!
Anyone need a stove?
We picked out our cabinets about 2 months ago, they should be installed at the end of october. This is the finish/style we chose. I'm really excited to see how it's going to turn out!
Our island will be this finish. I think it will make a nice contrast from the cabinets.
Mike has also been working on removing the carpet from upstairs.
All of the wood floors upstairs are in good shape, so thankfully we will be able to refinsh them!
Original hardwood floors!
These are windows I saved for some fun projects I have in mind! This is the downstairs bathroom that is right off the kitchen. It is soooo small, you have to step in the bathtub to close the door and get over to the toilet which is behind the door (on the right). We are going to convert this bathroom to a pantry!
