Below is the scary tile staircase that was there before. Rod's mother even fell down them when she came to visit! Thankfully Rod was there to catch her!
This is the upstairs living room. We ripped off all the tile trim and Rod made beautiful wood base and installed wood doors that Rod stained and glazed. We also ripped out all the old carpet and pads and got new ones. Rod retextured the walls and we painted them Basket Beige.
Here is the kitchen...not the prettiest but we improved it! We painted the cabinets white, got new hardware and Rod tiled the counter-top! We also bought a new stove...but that is a story in itself...THE STOVE SAGA.Here are the wood stairs! We took a couple days to rip out the tile base and Rod made these! They look absolutely beautiful!
For the after pictures...I need to ask Maurie if I can take photos of her home! It looks so amazing! I love the sounds of people running up and down the stairs. It was so quiet when Timber and Angel had to move! NOw Rod and I are not as lonely anymore.
This picture is the results of a remodel. I don't feed my husband so he resorts to this. Can you see his bite marks?
Cute.
