Laundry room update.

Pin It

Last night, I finally got the rest of the molding I had cut, up and caulked.

Today, I touched up all the paint and then took on the challenge of building the tv stand finally.

I almost taught Storm a few new words, but in the end I got it together.

Thank goodness for kids who are old enough to hold things and use a level and make a two adult job possible with just us.

It's coming along. I can almost see it.

I've a few more pieces of molding to cut and put up. The floor needs to be repainted. I do not like the porch paint that the guy at the store told me to use at all. The window needs one more piece still. I've got to decide on a bookshelf or something for the laundry area.

And of course, furniture and a tv. And all the other little details...like a ceiling and insulation ...

Curse you Grandpa Frankenstein! Curse you!!

It took most of the afternoon, but I'm calling it 1-0 for me against that monstrosity of a tool storage area.

The man loved his screws. I lost count how many deck screws held up that tool bench. There was even that one massively long one! Gah.

What a mishmash of wood too. I hope he didn't build much else in this house...

Well, it's almost a win for me. There is one screw left that I just can not get out. But we cleaned out the pieces, swept up the mess and it's almost ready for organizing.

But not today. I. Am. Done.
