The basement!


We have finished most of our basement. Only the downstairs bathroom still needs construction. We still have to hang some doors and put up the molding, but it has been so nice to enjoy the rest of it, we have been waiting so long. So here at last, I am posting a few pictures of the new carpet, walls, and paint. The first picture is a view of the toy room from the perspective of the closet under the stairs.



This next picture is the toy room from the other side.



We are going to put up a chalk board for the kids on the wall by the stairs. We have the chalkboard paint and the board, we just need to put the two together and hang it up. I think it will be lots of fun for them, as well as easy clean up for me. The next picture is of our family or TV room. We are still deciding what to do in this room for seating.




The next room is the computer/game room. I don't have pictures of Mary's room yet, she wants her curtains up for the finished look. Hopefully, I will get those sewn up this weekend and will post about it next week.




Although the different lighting makes the carpet look like it might be different colors in different rooms, it is only due to the different lights, I think. The carpet is throughout the entire basement as well as the stairs. It truly feels like a different basement than the one we initially had.

I keep thinking back to the original walkthrough with the realtor when you were thinking about buying it - night and day in such a good way! You guys have done such an awesome job, Les!
