Home improvement - Part 1


The bathroom door used to look like this, but after we moved in we refinished the room and yanked this old ugly door. There was nothing but a decorative curtain covering the closet under the stairs for a long time.

Then, last weekend, we removed the concrete threshold between the bath and closet (2" high, used sledgehammer, sharp-pointed chisel, and ballpeen hammer to remove in a few hours) and knocked out the wall between the bedroom and the bath closet to make a direct passage between the bedroom and the bathroom. Oh, and we had to remove a plethora of shelves from the closet --- I forgot to take a "before" photo, unfortunately. But it was a bit of work!

Here are some photos of our progress (and oh, yes, don't you LOVE the 70's paneling in our bedroom?! That is a future project...):
