I like green… just not for my toilet! Or bathtub for that matter… We did most of our demo right away, but we saved the kids’ bathroom until the last minute (it’s nice to have a working potty!) After the framing was complete, however, it was time to go! Wes occupied the girls outside, while…
Framing In
After we finished most of the demo, it was time to call in some professionals! Based on the walls we wanted to remove, we needed to put in a pretty big beam to support the ceiling. After installing the beam, the framers did as much framing as they had time for (basically they squeezed us in…
And The Walls Cam Tumbling Down!
If you didn’t catch the “before” start HERE. The day we closed on our home just so happened to be a Friday… so the very next day we started ripping it apart! The demo continued over the next couple of weeks with lots of help from friends and family. (PS, please excuse my cell-phone quality…
