July 30, 2015 Finished floors ("library" and spare bedroom)

July 30, 2015 Finished floors ("library" and spare bedroom)

This is the storage container we had - imagine it full!  Now it is happily empty.  We are getting closer to being moved in!

Dh bought this great new 'do-all' tool.  It did work great for sanding the floors!

You can tell by the size of the sander that it took a long time to sand all the floor in each room.  This picture also shows the wooden molding around the room after I scraped and sanded it.  It had a lot of Spackle and paint on it--that was a time consuming job; cleaning up the molding!

This is the "spare bedroom" (that was the teenage girls bedroom); it had white/cream colored carpet and two different tones of painted walls (and don't forget the glow-in-the-dark stars on the ceiling!).  This picture shows the "STONE" color of the floors now.

This picture shows the padding that was under the white carpet.

The new "Library"

This is the new "library", where we will be doing our lessons.  Soon it will packed down with wall to wall book shelves!  This picture doesn't do a great job of showing the "stone" color, but it is the exact same painting job as the spare bedroom--the lighting in the rooms needs help!
