Room 5 - Almost Done

Again, brick red is the accent color.

The main floor bedroom has been our recent focus. Finally it is complete except for buying a new bed and a ceiling fan/light fixture, and refinishing the oak floor. The floor will happen after we do all of the other work throughout the house. The bed and fan will happen when we find a time to shop. But for now the room is usable with a temporary inflatable bed.

This room took a lot of work that is not visible. First there was all of the work we did to insulate the exterior walls, and repair them afterwards. Building the storage in the closet took time. Don patched the oak floor in two places and had to rebuild the duct work underneath the heat register. This room has a lot of painted woodwork, and the walls required two coats of paint to look good.

We'll hang a few pictures on the wall before we say, "finished."

Yesterday we moved most of Oliver's things back into the room in preparation for a sleep-over. He and Simon have declared the room "Great!." This room doubles as Oliver's room and a guest room.
