I hope this counts as a craft… because I put a lot of hours and sweat into it lol
Long story short, we fired our contractor and I took over.
I found a great channel called “Home Renovision DIY” on YouTube, and I’ve been watching it for tips on sanding, drywall mudding, painting, etc. The channel guy is from Ottawa, where I used to live, and it’s nice to watch a Canadian channel from my province because usually the products he mentions are available where I live.
Anyway, I sanded all these walls, primed them, and put 2-3 coats of paint on all of them. Lots to do still, but it’s coming along.
It’s a really weird basement because it’s only 7 feet tall, but the venting in some areas (where you see all the angles) makes it less than 6 feet in some places… My poor 6’3" husband has smacked his head on that curved bulkead so many times…
I vote it 100% counts! And I applaud you for the dedication to in progress pics! We sold our house and bought a ‘new’ to us house in November and it’s been nothing but renovation projects since.
It’s the kitty door. That’s his little room for the litter and other cat stuff. We also have one of those on the door to the basement. The nice part about that little door is that if we have to isolate the cat for any reason, it can be locked in place!
