Who am I kidding!
It’s Naked Girls Room. Can’t help it.
If you want to read the back story, how it gots its name and some of the details, you can click here:
This picture is the “before it gets better” stage. For sure.
Above the kitchen is naked girls room.
The original staircase, immediately off the kitchen.
Drywall installed.
Paint and trim completed.
This little alcove is going to be the home of the new platform bed.
We were gifted funeral home kneeling benches when a local funeral home decided to remodel. I had no idea what I would do with them until the platform bed became a reality.
Who would ever know what their previous life was?
Naked girls room is a loft. Originally it had a door but we decided as a guest space it would be really cute converted to a loft.
The Guest Room has a full bathroom. Our guests stay in style.
The original wall facing the kitchen had a weird little ledge that I desperately wanted to get rid off.
Nope.
Not possible.
Next best thing? Make it look like it had always been there. Add a full wall shelving unit.
Now I love that weird ledge.
The floor was an eye roller.
Some of my ideas, the family, especially Steve rolls their eyes.
This project was a necessity. There was not a budget for a new floor. Plywood would have to do but ugly plywood is not in my vocabulary.
I had never stenciled anything. But I decided I would try it anyways.
I started here.
and ended here.
This room is more finished than any other room in the entire house. Sometimes I just go up and sit on the bed. This room is peaceful and lovely. Just lovely.
Thanks for joining me on the journey of Before and Afters!
