an update and a room finally finished

A long overdue update: this is the logical thing to do after rolling up the carpet pad/dropcloth. I think it must have been just the carpet which was magic. This isn't going anywhere on its own!
Giddyup! (Get your mind out of the gutter!)
The fireplace, painted and framed in the unfinished hardwoods (notice the lack of a door on the right?

And this is our major accomplishment lately, the cork floors are now laid in the dining room!
Aren't they AWESOME?
They look sooo cool!
Here's the tiny closet

This is the current state of the kitchen. This is the other side of the door that used to be there
The wall where we covered up a hole from the wiring
Again, the corner with the closed off door.

Okay, it's 2:45 am and I'm pooped. However, I am finally starting to feel a sense of accomplishment!

  1. The cork floor is awesome! How unique! Everything is really looking nice. It's hard to see the color of the wood trim in the pictures...did you paint that an eggplant color? The wall repair in the kitchen is amazing! Can't wait to see the cabinets installed! You guys are doing a fantastic job!! What is the little closet for?? LS
