All About Clothes

You may have heard that we are using three rooms on the second floor to create one giant, excessive, hedonistic, over-the-top, you-have-to-be-kidding-me master suite.

It’s okay. We know you’re all thinking it.

The bedroom is basically untouched, except for adding a door to our closet, which already had a door connecting it to what will become our bathroom. We’re carving the laundry room out of the master closet, and it will connect to both the master closet and the hallway. This was Chris’ idea.

It’s hard to envision what it will look like when it’s a bunch of blank rooms.

This is the closet. To the left is the door to the master bath. On the right is what will be the laundry room.

Chris and his brother, Andrew, spent a fun-filled  day ripping the lathe and plaster out from in between the door and what used to be a closet. The Big C put up some studs, so it looked like this:

Look familiar?

There is drywall up now, along with lighting, but we need to take photos. This weekend we’ll play photographic catch-up and then watch out! The blog will be smokin’!

The girls’ bathroom has seen lots of changes. Behold, a tub surround!

The curve at the top mirrors the curve above the window. Exactly. (The Big C wanted us to tell you that.)

The girls’ bedroom has closets!

Some day these closets will be choked with clothes. And, hopefully, we'll take care of those pesky holes in the floor.

At the rate things are going, the girls will be able to move into the house a live quite comfortably long before Chris and I can — despite our palatial (and unfinished) master suite.

They will be lonely.

Who's going to help Sophie into the bathtub with absurdly high sides?

We will work hard to make sure this fate does not befall our children.
