Remodel Update

A little while back, I talked about our home remodel.  
We started working on it, at the beginning of the Summer, but then realized, that there wouldn't be enough time or money to do that, and all of our Camping trips at the same time, so we had to put the remodel on hold for a little while.  
Now that school has started, etc... I am really excited to get it done.  
Not to mention, that once the wood work is done, we can put the saw's and tables away, and Chris can start parking the Car in the garage again.  I want to get this done before it gets cold and snows.
There is no reason to scrape snow off of the car in the early morning hours, when we have a garage right?  And I can't even imagine decorating the house for the holidays, when it's torn apart.
Two reasons, that we need to get this thing done :)

Anyway,  Chris has been working on it this past week, and I love what is happening!!  
We are almost done with the wood work.
The entry way, and dining room are getting the same treatment.  The dining room is complete, and the chair rail is up in the entry.  Now we just have to finish the boxes in the entry.  
Then we'll be just about done and ready to start prep for painting!  
A LOT of painting!  

Both Columns that Chris built, and everything from the chair rails to the floor, and all of the trim around the doors and windows, will be white.  
Everything else, will be a brown color called, Bread Basket.

More updates to come.  Or maybe just pics when we're done painting.
Then onto, accessorizing!  Curtains, Pillows, new Closet Doors, and I have some special projects, for the family room.

Here are the pics, of Chris' amazing work!











In this picture, do you see the wood on top of the front door?  Well, it was tiny, like above the closet, but we've put new wood up.  And we're going to do that above the two closets, the back deck doors, and over the doorway in the dining room too.  Chris has all of the pieces cut, and now just has to get them up.  I really like it. 
After this, all of the wood is done, and we can prep for painting!!

Tell Chris it's looking GREAT! He's a perfectionist, right? You can tell he's made it look just perfect. I can't wait to see it all painted and the contrast of the colors. Then the fun part...decorating!! Sounds like we need to plan the Halloween party at your house. :-)
