Interior Doors

Bruce has been building the interior doors. He has glued 2X4's together and held them together in those clamp things (I have no idea the names of tools) for a few days while the glue dries. He works his Bruce magic and then there is a door. They look awesome!

IKEA cabinets

We had a very long day at IKEA picking up our cabinets. We ended up with 18 carts full of stuff. It all made it home and we have started putting things together. Most of the base cabinets are together but we don't have very many of the fronts on.


The ones that we do have the fronts on look really nice. It has definitely given the house more of a homey feel. We do have some food in the pantry all ready.

Deck Railing

Lance and Bruce have been working on the railing outside on the deck. They aren't done with it yet. It will look like the railing inside when it is finished.

Shower Tile

The tile is mostly complete. Both bathrooms have been grouted. Bruce may tile the ceiling in this shower but I am not sure.



The master shower is built for two. It has two shower heads one on each side. There is also a little bench in there for leg shaving equipped with a light directly above it so that there won't be any hairs missed.



The master tub turned out so cute. The slate has so many different colors. I love the way it has all turned out.

Railings

Lance and Bruce have been working on the railings. The ones that are inside all all finished. It looks awesome. They have totally defined the space yet keep in open.






The posts for the railings are really beefy. They are bolted onto the wall. The cable is strung through each spacer to keep them in place.


Shiree is helping out this week. She was measuring and cutting the cable for the railings.


Bruce was drilling the holes in the spacers.


To get the black color on the pipes Lance and Bruce heated up the pipes and the welds and then rubbed bees wax on them. There is some reaction that causes the black color, it was crazy.


This is the color in the master bedroom it is sort of a leather color. It looks more red in the picture than it does in real life.

Paint

We had a little bit of a challenge trying to figure out a color that would work well with this space and one that we all could agree upon we ended up with white.


The other bedroom aka Bruce's room has one red wall. It turned out really nice.


The gym wall is rust. I love this color. I can't wait to clean everything up and see how things look. We painted the master bedroom sort of a reddish brown leathery color. I took a picture of it but it didn't turn out. To add color we painted one accent wall (with the exception of Kylee's room) and the rest of the walls are white.

Kylee chose her colors for her room. She has chosen sunshine yellow and lemon grass green. they are obviously very bright. She loves her room and said that if she is ever sad she will just go into her room and it will make her happy. My mom came over and helped with the painting. I couldn't have gotten as much done as I did with out her. She was awesome.

The Begining of Sheetrock and Insulation

The interior walls had some insulation blown in. We needed to put up some of the sheetrock to hold the insulation in place.



The half bathroom is totally sheetrocked in! The hallway looks totally different with a solid wall. It was a lot darker that I thought it would be. It looks awesome!
