Reno Update

Here is an update on our reno list. Pictures coming soon!



Renovation list:
- move light switch (since the current location will be covered by the new wall)
- open kitchen heat vent into bedroom
- close other bedroom vent and open into bathroom
- new light fixture (a low-light chandelier doesn't work for a boy's room)
- install a dimmer switch
- frame the wall
- drywall
- tape
- mud - 1st coat
- mud - 2nd coat
- mud - 3rd coat
- sand
- hang a room darkening blind
- door trim
- prime new wall (bedroom side and hallway side)
- paint bedroom
- door
- baseboard
- decorate
- move C in
 
The room is painted, curtains and blinds are up, door is hung, dresser is moved in. There are still a few things left to do, that aren't on the list above. The baseboard has to be custom made by my Dad in order to match the baseboard in the rest of the house. We also need to empty the closet that is currently housing all my china and crystal. In order to do this, we have to pack up the Christmas dishes in the hutch in the basement so we have somewhere to put the good dishes. Once that is done, and the trim is installed, primed, and painted, the plan is to move C in. We are on track to move him in on Monday! I can't wait!
