So while I have been laboring away in the bedrooms, Jared has been keeping himself busy with about a billion other projects. Last weekend his dad came over to help out, and they did a lot of discussing about how to properly remove the old studs, and replace with a header beam, so we would have a more open concept between the dining room, kitchen and the sunroom. They have so far successfully, removed one whole section of wall (beam still to come) and we have one more section to remove. It is so cool! Especially since it was getting hard for me to fit through the spaces between the 2x4's. Now I just breeze right through. : )
The Before! Looking into the dining room through to the kitchen.
What is under all that vinyl anyhow? REAL hard wood.
Same view but with less walls!
And the more open concept. The support beams will go once the header is in place. And then the studs between the sunroom and kitchen will come down too.
The job finished with two support headers in place, and all 2x4's removed!
Then today, he thought it would be good to install one of our new front doors. He started on the sun room door. Since the weather has gotten warmer we haven't been able to properly latch it, let alone dead bolt it! We replaced the old 32" nine light with a giant 36" one light, and it is so cool. I hate to put a privacy curtain on it, it look so good like it is! Pics to come!
