Upstairs Progress!


Welp, we finally cleaned up the endless plaster mess from the demo...and started working on finishing the first half of the upstairs. eeeee!!! 
Here is the entrance to the master, from the top of the stairs ... After a solid day of argument, I won, and the door was moved  over 6 feet. It was alot of work for Kyle, but it made a huge difference in the look of the size of the room. We couldn't change the layout very much due to my serious need for a massive closet, so there was a whole lot of *Mandie takes... Kyle gives* in this scenario... Oops :) aHHH well. He will see it worth it when its all done :) 


  Here is the view from the bedroom into the walk through closet... Yes.. thats right I said it... walk through closet. He gets a side... I get a (bigger) side.... and if you keep walking, you'll end up in our master ensuite. LOVE.


         Here is the Master Bedroom! I know. Pretty fancy eh? But that sprayfoam actually is fancy. And expensive. I mayaswell show it off before we cover it up with drywall :) You think it would be hard to live in a bedroom without walls? I kind of miss it. All of the nails were left in the studs from the lath & plaster, so I always had something to hang my clothes on :) Theres always a positive.... at least i'll die trying to find it while living with this bedroom...

                 

                                            yayyyy sprayfoam

                                     



                     Here it is all pretty & Drywalled!!! EEEEEEEEEE WALLS ARE SO GREAT









There she is! My hallway! We took the VERY USEFUL (but unfortunatley awfully big and ugly) storage unit out of the corner, and left us with a HUGE  open space for a built in window bench/wall desk unit. Hopefully that will look a little more sleek :) Here is the useful, yet ugly storage hub...

Here is the space without it! Much better! Can't wait to draw up some plans for this space :)
                            Kyle's half of the walk-through clost...
 


                     My (larger) side of the walk through closet :)

  This is the only picture I have for the ensuite bathroom.. Its room past the walk through closet. its where we are sleeping right now... sooo needless to say, i'm excited to get this finished so I can stop sleeping in my bathroom. hahaha








The other half of the upstairs will just be left sprayfoamed, we will most likely finish this next fall, but we realy want to get this reno done wihtout any debt, so it will have to wait untill my ensuite is finished.. because i'm selfiish, and well, we don't need 2 childrens bedrooms yet, as we have no children :) its all sprayfoamed and toasty though... thats about all I have to update :)
