In fact I think they’re owned by the same company.

You’d think I would have learned by now!.I absolutely love it now and I’ve been spending the last little while getting things all organized and super-functional in there and now I’m so glad we took this project on even thought it took just a leeeeeetle longer than I thought it would.

So here’s how the room looked before we started this project.. Ummm, yeah.That was my bedroom.. Our master bedroom was built an as addition so it’s in its own wing off to one side of our house.It has a hallway off the back that leads out to a deck, with our  ensuite bathroom right off the hall..

This was another incarnation of the room and another attempt to somehow temporarily organize all the stuff that was back there..This little shelf nook is actually where the door to the bathroom is now.

We moved it during our recent bathroom renovation so now it’s easy to access right off the back door instead of people needing to go all the way into our bedroom to get to it..

So here’s how the hallway looks now!.I had a post all lined up about how we’ve had these half-built stairs leading up to our back deck for the past two months.

He must have been reading over my shoulder cause the guy went and finished the darn steps.Right out from underneath me and my beloved blog.. Now it’s still a big ol’ mess back there, but it’s definitely not as ridiculous as having just the two bottom steps and then nothing.. Our house had this big long giant humongous ramp across the entire back of the house.

He’s been working at tearing that down to make room for a big ground level patio.At the time I took these photos, at least that little project was still half-done..
