Basement Update

There was a flurry of work just before the Xmas break.  It looked like Santa's workshop in the new basement.  This staircase was finished,

I now have a railing.

It just needs to be painted.  I have hated this staircase for 15 years and now I love it.  It has been transformed from rickety to sturdy.

The new bathroom pocket door is in place and has hardware.  There are no windows in this basement so I designed the bathroom and panty doors with opaque glass in them.  When the lights are on in these rooms and the doors are closed, they give you the illusion of shaded windows.

The panty still needs a sign.

Appliances!

The subzero was maneuvered into this spot with barely 1/4 inch to spare. 

This is the toe kick for my new island.  There is still much to be done but it's nice to see progress.
