Remodeling finally completed

It is now time to post pictures of Gwen's completed room.  She has emptied the last of her boxes and has organized (to the extent that everything has a place at the moment) her belongings.

The first organizational challenge, of course, was the closet, and 





when buying shelves the length you want, you end up paying for the entire length of shelf available and have them cut it to size.  

Gwen, however, was able to put the remaining pieces to use as well, as seen the the pictures.















She now has more closet room than ever before.

































Her sitting room, also, took shape nicely and allows room for books, knickknacks, 

two comfy chairs, 

and her new desk for her computer.

Even the bedroom, although smaller than the original because the bathroom wall was  moved, has ample space for sleeping, 

















watching and storing movies, 








storing her music CDs,






and setting up her new keyboard, which she received for Christmas and never played because there was no room in the living room.











See, lots of room to practice now.













This is Gwen's new room, and the new color of her door.


Notice anything of interest, Lisa?



The bathroom door, to the right is handicap accessible, 
just in case, after the bathroom is finished, someone in the family bedsides Gwen needs to use it.
















And here is Gwen enjoying her new room.

Remodeling Continued

The remodeling thankfully continued and progressed quickly under Todd's skilled abilities.

Once Todd finished his magic texturing the wall, Gwen and I began to paint.









Although you cannot tell it very well, the closet is a darker color than the main bedroom and sitting room.  Gwen is not sure why she purchased two different colors, but we were both pleased with the results.



The picture below gives a little bit of an idea of the two colors on the walls.



From this picture, it looks like the main bedroom is yellow, but it is really a cream color, and the closet is a deep tan color.






Oh, yes, let's not forget the lighting, which took us longer to get accomplished then we thought it would.


This is the light now in the sitting room,

this is the light in the closet, and finally, the fan lighting in the main bedroom.










Once the room was all painted, Todd was able to lay the new flooring;

 

and, once the floor was finished, it was time to clean up.

Notice the fine dust covering the floor; a result of the saw dust from cutting the floor boards.

 Of course, no room would be complete without trim, and a door on the bathroom.

 






Plus, there is the fancy corner trim on both of the doors.









Once all the trim was on, then the curtains were hung; first over the closet and then over the one window.

 

Finally, the furniture started coming into the room, along with the new rug.

 It is getting late, so I will try to post more pictures tomorrow evening.
