Several weeks ago I started painting a part of my upstairs hallway that I had left unpainted for the past several years after a remodel. This quickly morphed into an upstairs hallway painting/upstairs bathroom partial remodel project. I’ve never really liked the upstairs bathroom. I painted it after I moved in but never really liked […]

new hanging artwork…

It consists of a bump-out that was constructed when the upstairs bathroom was put in and some built […]

I still have to finish painting the bedroom doors and have the new door installed on Thurston’s room, but all the patching, priming and painting is finally done.

no more wires
By Adam in Upstairs HallwayBefore: After: Remember how the wires ran out through the walls into my upstairs hallway and back into the rooms? Well no more! Last Saturday my dad and I and a friend of his re-wired the upstairs, running the wires up into the attic and back down through the bedroom walls or ceilings as needed. […]

off it goes
By Adam in Upstairs HallwayThis dump trailer holds all the remnants of my upstairs hallway’s former self- ugly paneling, scrap lumber framing, drop ceiling tiles and the drop ceiling frame. I spent an hour and a half yesterday running up and down my stairs as I dragged it all out of my bedroom where I had been putting it […]
