For those of you who remember this post, you know our basement is quite dark and dreary...and well, retro. I never choose to spend more time down there than I need to. Basically, I quickly do my laundry, and I enter and exit our house through there...that's about it.
Since we first shared the space with you, we've had a new steel post installed to accommodate the removal of so many walls upstairs, the hubs and I ripped down the ceiling, we had new windows installed, we rearranged the laundry area {with new a new washer and dryer}, we moved in and now, thanks to a whole heck of a lot of hard work by my Dad, we lightened up the walls with a couple fresh coats of paint.
{Here's my typical apology...sorry for the awful pictures. I took them on my iPhone as I left for work in the morning. And seriously, we only have 3 lights in the whole basement. Its awful.}
We know this is NOT where our basement story ends. I mean, come on...it still screams HEEELP!!! But it is a lot better than where we started. :)
One day {when we hit the lotto} we will have this area re-done...so it'll be the perfect place for kids to hang out and play.
Anyone else dreaming of re-doing a specific area of their home?!?!? I'd be shocked if I heard a "no" to that! ;)
