Because a person can only look at so many pictures of me mid-project and covered in head to toe dirt…

Living Room

The transformation of the livingroom was achieved by tearing out everything in the room that wasn’t necessary for the structural support of the house. Carpet, shutters, odd plug-in florescent light fixture, all gone. I love the look of slate tile, and bought this for $1.29/ sq ft on clearance at Home Depot. The walls were the result of a lot of quality time spent with a gallon of paint and a 4″ brush.

Kitchen

One set of frozen pipes, resulting waterfall from upstairs bath through the kitchen to the basement, and three months of living hell later, the kitchen was reborn with all new cabinetry, 2″ blue tile countertops (less than $200 for all counters and backsplashes), and a new wood floor. All the work it took to get me from “before” to “after” can be found in these posts.

Basement Room

Basement Utility Area
Home of all powertools that aren’t currently in the garage.

Consider this an “in progress” picture, since I have big plans to put vinyl stick-tiles, a drop ceiling, and some flourescent lights in sometime before summer.

Backyard

(There are plenty more to put up here– as soon as they’re all organized– check back soon.)
