The Breakfast Room Comes Together

Remember the Original Breakfast Room?
Remember this old cat-pee ridden room? Remember the smell (use your imagination if you weren't one of the lucky to experience in person)? The discoloration? The awful purple and pink tile?
What about the Old Powder Room? 
An obvious afterthought containing a back wall that hid the only basement access. Other key features were rotting wood floor around the toilet which gave you the feeling that any use could drop you through the floor straight to the basement. Another feature to note was the window above the toilet (to the green room) which served as any voyeur's dream...

Out With the Old, In With the New
So now, all those bad memories are ALL GONE!! We are well on our way to two fabulous bright, clean, fully functional spaces. Check out the progress and some inspiration photos along the way.

GORGEOUS New Hardwood Floors

New wood threshold around stove makes it pop!

Imagine it without the cardboard boxes
Stay tuned to see what we do with two antique church pews, some curtains, a vessel sink, some blue and beige paint and an amazing 8' high black and white mural.
