Laundry Chute Cabinet

 Built a cabinet for the laundry chute.  

We got new wndows

 We replaced all 6 of the original 91yr fixed single pane leaded glass windows in the front of the house.   We replaced all of the double-hung leaded glass single pane windows with wood versions in Dec 2005 Blog Post.  These are Anderson clad wood windows from Home Depot and installed by them.  They did not come with faux leaded glass like our last ones did so we found a source on Etsy and will add the effect on the interior ourselves.

We got our couches reupolstered

 

Latest basement Updates

 We got carpeting installed on the basement stairs

We had our utility sink removed and added a dedicated drain for the washing machine

We had the toilet, sink and utility sink installed

We painted the walls and ceiling and installed the LED panel lights

Drywall texture and primer paint is done

 Now we just need to paint the ceiling, walls, trim and doors.  Install the trim.  Wire the plugs and lights.  Install the toilet and sinks.    And it should be done

New outdoor lights

 We wanted bigger lamps for the front of the shop.  The first set we bought were bigger than what we had so we decided to replace the ones in the front of the house with them and got bigger ones for the shop. 

We have drywall

 

Added insulation to the outer walls

 We were going to insulate the ceiling and other walls but decide on just doing the walls against the foundation.

Basement Progress

 Ripped out the lath and plaster in the stairwell and added a LED light.  Got the wiring done.  Just had to move the CCTV DVR and internet to the office closet.

Moved the vent duct into the room.
