I can’t imagine it’s lastly carried out. This room was, by far, my greatest mission but in our home. This was far greater and extra in depth, involving far more DIY initiatives, than even the grasp rest room. And it’s been “in progress” for years. However lastly, and actually as of this morning once I completed portray the door, it’s completed!
I had actually hoped to get the carport cleaned out earlier than taking these “after” photos as a result of the carport is filled with stuff and it exhibits by the again doorways of the studio. However I made a decision that we’ve all waited far too lengthy as it’s to see this room completed, so I wasn’t prepared to delay any longer. So please be so type as to disregard the view by the again doorways. I hope to spend this night and all day tomorrow cleansing that up in order that I can present y’all our completed driveway!! However for now, let’s simply faux that the view out the again studio doorways is attractive, and we’ll deal with what’s contained in the room.
I’ve little or no commentary on this room. I did most of that on this last post the place I walked by the timeline of how this room happened. So right this moment, I’ll simply present you a number of earlier than photos, and we’ll bounce proper to the after photos and skip all of the in between.
Simply as a reminder, my studio was initially the storage. So standing on the entrance storage doorways and searching in direction of the again yard, this was the view…
And right this moment, that view appears like this…
Sadly, I didn’t take many pictures of the storage after we purchased the home, so the earliest picture I might discover wanting in direction of the entrance of the room (i.e., standing on the again and searching in direction of the entrance yard) was this one which was taken simply because the transformation was starting, after the storage doorways had been eliminated, and because the concrete perimeter was being stuffed in the place the storage doorways had been.
And right this moment, that view appears like this…
I actually do remorse not taking extra earlier than photos. Once we purchased the home, the storage didn’t even have drywall. All you could possibly see was the black tar paper, and it felt so darkish and dreary. It is a view of the nook which is now my workplace space of the studio.
So right this moment, that space appears like this…
And naturally, because it was a storage, the ground was at floor degree and there have been steps up into the home.
And now, the ground has been raised to be degree with the remainder of the home
Once more, this drywall wasn’t initially there. We added that later, and we additionally eliminated the furnace which had large ducts that stuffed the area over the door main inside the home. However that is nonetheless a fairly good thought of what we began with.
And right this moment, that wall of the room appears like this…
That is the one true “earlier than” image I might discover that really has no drywall and nonetheless has the storage doorways.
And that view appears like this right this moment…
I can’t imagine it’s completed! I nonetheless have some organizing to do contained in the drawers and cupboards, and I’ll give y’all a peek inside all of these once I’m completed. I’ve the whole lot put away proper now, however I’m nonetheless making some tweaks to how I would like issues organized.
Within the meantime, listed here are a number of extra photos of the completed room, offered with out commentary. Take pleasure in!
In the event you’re in search of any of the DIY initiatives that went into this room (the cupboards, the painted ground, the desk, the tasting spoon pendant gentle, the laminate flooring counter tops, and a lot extra) you can find all of those projects here.
I can’t even imagine it’s carried out. This room has occupied most of my time and vitality for the final yr, and I felt like I used to be caught in Groundhog Day. However it’s carried out, and I can transfer on. Subsequent up is the carport. Now that we’ve a driveway and I’ve a workshop, I must get the carport cleaned out in order that I can truly park a automobile in there.
After that, I’ll begin on the bed room. I’ll begin by putting in the hardwood flooring and getting that stained and sealed, and the transfer on to creating a headboard, making draperies, and adorning that room. After which after that, I’ll transfer on to the closet and laundry space. So there are some thrilling issues developing! However fairly actually, I may spend fairly a little bit of time over the subsequent few days simply sitting in my studio and having fun with the completed room. It’s such a colourful, blissful area, and I can’t wait to spend time in right here being artistic!
