Progress on Owen's room

Below are some pictures of the progress of the walling off of the door in Owen's room.


Before. This door goes into our laundry room, but we can just as easily get there through the kitchen, which is why we've decided to remove it. It's not on the track right now, which is why it looks crooked in the doorway. Zero knocked it over 3 times in the middle of the night:


Studs:


Drywall, taping, and mudding:




Texture coat:


After one coat of paint, still wet. I still need to put on another one:


We also purchased some cellular shades in a slate blue color to replace those God-awful pink blinds. They should be arriving next week.

Very cool Heather! That is so strange that there was a doorway there to begin with! So the people that did the work didn't paint it?

I have no idea why there was a door there to begin with, so strange! These guys were drywallers, so I don't think they do paint. I'd have to get a painter for that, but I just did it myself. I don't think I did a very even job, but I'll wait until tomorrow to see if it dries well.

You're wearing a mask, right?!

Yes ma'am :)! And I have the window open and a fan going.
