A while back, we had our first-time homebuyer lesson on why you should never take short cuts to get a job done on your home...unfortunately for us, the owners before us liked to cut a lot of corners. We found out that the ceiling in our sun room had tiles stapled to it and they all came crashing down.
For at least a year now, we have been ignoring the ceiling in the sun room, but this weekend we decided to tackle our first big project together with the help of my wonderful engineer father and my really short mother. :)
Take a look at our first remodeling project...
|
Tearing down the leftover porch pieces...not fun or easy, yes they even left up the porch light |
|
Looks like we'll need to update the paint & trim after this project |
|
Love the green duct tape work over the insulation |
|
Tequila helping...he kept trying to eat the sheetrock and sleep on the insulation |
|
My dad hooking up real wires for the ceiling fan...not the little stereo wire like before |
|
They had forgotten a stud...insert Brian :) |
|
Putting plastic up before we dry wall tomorrow...its already looking better |
|
Admiring his labors |
|
After an 8+ hour project, this is where Tequila finally ended up
|
Day 1 was exhausting and tomorrow the real fun part begins. Stay tuned for more updates...
XOXO,
Sara & Brian
