The old recycled fir flooring (from Re-Store and Second-Use) has been cleaned up; installed; sanded; and is now being finished. Quite the transformation! Once an uninteresting house with small rooms, many walls, and carpeting is still a small house, but a house-with-drama. No extra square footage was added, but wow! it now feels spacious, inviting and interesting. The room in this first picture will be Lois' studio, where once it was two tiny bedrooms and without the French doors.
In the second picture the space (freshly sanded) was once the living room and kitchen with a wall in between. It also had a strange area of wasted space (pictured above to the right of the door ) that will now be a small sitting area with propane heat stove and large flat screen TV -- a place to hunker down on a (though the materials aren't) and have transformed the space. When the new door, 40" x 7'-0" tall hand made single lite by dbBrad is finished it will bring in yet more light.
Matt and Joe sanding the studio.
The kitchen/living area partially sanded.
