a room for family: part three

the "let's break shit and then make it beautiful" part.  now,  had nothing to do with this.  i provided some consultation about lighting and we had a shopping trip while demo was going on. but i did none of the sledge hammer swinging or break a wall apart.  i hope to one day.  its something i've secretly always wanted to do.  just bust a hole in a wall without consequence.  kira and dave took care of that for this room.

just a refresher here's what we were working with before the sledge hammers came out.

i don't think anyone was going to be sad to see that lovely rock wall and wood burning stove go.  it's removal instantly made the space feel much larger and open.

have a look for yourself.

i love finding original floors that have been covered up.  it's one of the best things when renovating an older home.

and here we are.  this last photo is a bit of a sneak peak of what's to come.   paint is all done, tile is installed, new pot lights, a ceiling fan and brand new gas fireplace.  there's still a few things that are waiting to be done and that means it'll probably be a while before there are reveal photos here.    

but ... i guess that just means you'll have to keep coming back and reading other posts, about other things, and other projects.  

happy weekend.
