Before and Afters

The sheet rock work is finished. The painting is finished. And I am celebrating. Here are a few before and afters. (We still have to put the rooms together, but it's coming along.)

Here's the dining room before.


And here it is now.



Here's the office before.

And here it is now.


Here's the kitchen before. (Please note the crackle paint. Everywhere.)


And here it is now - a work in progress. (But at least the crackle paint is no more!)


I must give a shout out to Jerry once again for his handy work. He built the wainscoting on the wall to the right of the black built-in cabinet, and he spent all weekend putting in the tile backsplash. Once he does the grout this week, I can begin to clean the floors (and all of the dishes covered in sheet rock dust) and put everything in order.

Progress. Slowly but surely.
