The Back Bedroom

Everyone always asked me where Nick and I slept while we were working on our bedroom. Well, this is it (minus the green carpet)...

I am taking thins picture from the doorway into the room. Beautiful, ah?

This is the closet in the bedroom. Tiny!

I have not decided whether or not to make this the baby's room/guest room until we get a 3rd bedroom and that will not be for a while because we want to finish the rest of the house. I probably will do that, and the baby can just sleep in our room when guest are here. So, here is what the room looks like now. Boy or girl, the paint is staying this color!

This picture is dark so it is hard to see the paint color. This pic was taken as (obviously) Nick was finishing up the floors.

As for this very moment, we are storing our couch in this room. It matches perfectly with the paint, don't ya think?! : )

The entrance into the room...we do still have to put a door and door frame up.

Nick built that cute little bookshelf and put it in the wall there. You see, behind that bookshelf use to be part of the closet and was very hard to even get to. So, instead of wasting the space, we put that bookshelf there. Now, the closet still has to be built. It is still tiny, but Nick is going to build another shelf for inside the closet, right behind the one in the wall there. Not sure if this is all making sense or not. I will post pictures of it when it is finished and that probably won't be until sometime late spring or early summer. As you can see, the room is almost finished.

The New Masterbath

Our masterbath is small, but it is WAY better than the old bathroom!


That's a window there behind the brown blind.

The toilet.

Taking the picture from the doorway.

The shower...notice the awesome body sprays that the hubby put in. The bathroom still needs some minor work, such as a shower door (we are using a curtain for now), some trim work, etc. All this has been put on hold while we (or should I say mostly the husband) gets the bigger things done before August!!

The 2nd Floor Bathroom

These are pictures of what use to be the 2nd floor bathroom. We turned it into our "master bathroom" even though it is SO small. The door into this bathroom was close up and you now enter the bathroom through our bedroom/closet.

Our Bedroom

So, FINALLY, here are pictures of our 99% completed bedroom. We still have to put 3/4 round around the floors and hang the door. We are waiting to hang the door until we finish putting hardwood flooring down in the upstairs hallway.

We don't have central AC, so we have to use window units.

This picture is a little dark. That is the sleigh bed that I have always wanted :). We got it after we finished the room.

Like I mentioned above, we still have to hang the door. As you can see, we have drywall hung, taped, and mudded in the hallway. Now we just need to get around to sanding it!


This wall is the main long wall in the room. Eventually, I will be putting a dresser on that wall. My old chest works for now but not for too long! I found a dresser and side tables that I absolutely LOVE!!! I just have to wait until we have some extra money and who knows when that will be!

Just thought this was a neat picture of the brick wall.

Crazy to see how far we have come with this darn room! For those of you just coming to my blog, you'll have to go back to the beginning and see what this room looked like when we bought our house. Upstairs bathroom(s) renovation pics to come.....
