No more dark wood trim!

I'm starting to see the light at the end of the remodel tunnel.  A couple weeks ago we had new carpets installed in the bedrooms.  It gave us a great opportunity to start the nursery with a blank slate instead of trying carve something out of an existing bedroom. 

Last week I took Monday and Tuesday off to install new baseboards in the hallway and bedrooms.  These were not fun days, but important in the life of the house and important to keeping my sanity.  I probably cut each length between 10 - 15 times before installing it.

Our bedroom has more of a charcoal tone to it.
The 70's dark wood trim is gone!
We are pleased with the results and can't wait to show it off.

Our punch list is getting shorter:
  • Paint the door jams
  • install laminate separators 
  • new guest shower
  • build bathroom cabinet 





Happy 7th Amber!

Happy Birthday Amber The day finally arrived - we've been talking about it since October last year. And what a celebration you crafted!...
