billeylerOver the past month, we've about killed ourselves with trying to get the downstairs done...
Begone Cinder Block Walls! Oh, and the florescent box and two fan lights are now replaced with a ceiling full of tasteful track lighting
The last remaining unused drywall after putting up 20 or so sheets downstairs. You can see where the floor had been covered by the pile sheetrock for months since it DOESN'T have the white dust, which I was constantly sweeping up. Cough, cough.
Starting to restain the floors to correct the two different colors of parquet. We had spent about 18 hours sanding the damn thing by this time. The blue tape is the 'bowtie' effect we're trying to fix. All I can say is "Never Again!"
The first layer of stain applied to try to even out the colors. Tricky mixing and staining over two days.
The finished product coming soon!
