Family Room Facelift...

Hmmm- Not a cart project but a project none the less. It's been so long since using this sight I've forgotten most of it, sooo bear with me. Moving away from the drop ceiling, old wall to wall carpet- something new to go with the new windows and door. This IS the tv room after all! It's taken three weeks so far- what can you do- so many distractions popping up in your own home. Like stopping to write blogs and post pictures. So first came the ceiling panels and framing exposing the old and insufficient insulation. So that was all removed and rafter vents, new insulation and vapour barrier installed. And of course the rough in wiring for pot lights. The drywall was put up and the carpet removed. Drywall finished and pot lights and electrical moved around (Thanks Brian). Holes in the walls patched, old trim taken down. This weekend the new flooring laid and trim going up. Was hoping to get the room primed today...I always set the bar a little too high. Really trying to get to where we can move some furniture back to the centre of the room- to free up the living room again, to actually use as a living room. So to follow- prime, paint...oh, and the "Feature Wall". Will update when there are more substantial changes. March 27- just a few touch ups to the paint and adjustments here and there. Daws helped cut up some pallet wood so I can start prepping that for the tv feature. Love the new shag carpet!
