Shut the Door!

No rest for the weary.  We are still movin' and shakin' down in the basement.  Here is what has happened in only one week.

  1. Door deliver on Monday
  2. Install doors Tuesday - Friday
  3. Drywall finishers returned to sand Sunday
  4. Pick-up primer and paint Saturday.  Primed everything on Sunday except for Hubs'/Storage Room and the Bathroom.
  5. Picked up our slate tile on Sunday.
And here is the status of each room, with a little more info.  Everything came from Home Depot by the way.

1.  Doors - we chose solid wood shaker style doors made by Jeld-Wen.  They match our doors upstairs, plus we love the style.  Hubs and I both had "strong"" opinions as to how a door should be hung.  Luckily we only had a few to get through, with the help of these instructions.
The first door we set
We need to figure out a way to finish all the door headers due to our low ceilings.

The louvered door is to the mechanical room.

2. The drywall finishers sanded and sanded and sanded.  I only have pics of the bathroom and storage room ... because I was lazy.


3.  Primed the walls.  We used Behr Premium Drywall primer.





 4.  And, our tile! - it is 12"x24" Montauk Black Slate Tile.  And I am in love!
