Brice's Room: The Cleanup

Welcome to Maintenance Monday! Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to read, comment, and follow our blog. We, truly, appreciate all of you! Today we are sharing Brice's room. As you know, we purchased a foreclosure (it sat empty for a few years) and we have spent most of our time trying to make our new home livable. So, our focus has been on what we and our home need. Many hours and hard work have been spent on cleanup. If you are new to our blog, you may like to read: Our New Home ~ The Downstairs Before, Our New Home ~ The Upstairs Before and Our New Home ~ The Outside Before. So far, we have: cleaned up the outside, scrubbed the inside, made the bathrooms functional, repaired the front stairway, added what we needed so we could hook up our stove/oven, washer and dryer, new water heater, gutted the kitchen, added a half-wall, had a new furnace, central air, and all new duct work put in, and so many other projects that are way too many to list. With the exception of the furnace, central air and duct work, we did and do all of the work ourselves.

This was Brice's room when we purchased our home.

We pulled up the carpet.

And, under the carpet we found this.

We cleaned up the dirt.

Then, I scrubbed EVERYTHING in Brice's room.

We still need to drywall, paint,

replace the windows,

decide what to do about the floor,

(it's painted wood)

add a rug, and a few other items.

But he is able to use his room.

So, for now, his room is done.

And, here's a sneak peek of the decor for Brice's room.

Currently, we are working on our kitchen.

Hopefully, we can get to the fun stuff

(decorating/landscaping) soon!
