Demolition!

I'm a wee bit lazy...I have better pictures on the camera, but it's so easy to use the ones from my phone.  This is a picture of the built in closets that used to reside in the toy room, which used to be our bedroom before we had kids.  The room is in the very front of the house and many moons ago used to be more of a front parlor that had archways making it open to the rest of the house.  As my great-grandmother aged, she converted the room into a bedroom for herself in the 60's or 70's...my dad's memory is a little fuzzy on when it actually all took place. 


 

Kurt has had the BEST help possible to get this project completed!
 
Kurt is in the dining room and on this side of the wall, there were built in shelves.  The wall you can see in the toy room that has the pictures hanging and the alphabet displayed will soon become a new wall of built ins - bigger and better than what we had. 
 
There is still much left to do, but the view from the dining room table is improving greatly...well if you can get past the stuff that is just shoved out of the way to make demo possible.
