so, for those inquiring minds out there...here are some photo's of the progress of the demo (sorry about the grainy photo's) on the cabin/shack.
i have done many cosmetic interior projects over the years and always tell my clients it will take much longer that you could imagine (not disclosing it can take up to twice as long...don't want to scare everyone away), but one tends to forget these rules when they apply to you.
these photo's are the before and after of the "previous" kitchen dining nook. now you see it, now you don't. thankfully it opened up the space just enough to create a flow that is all connected with the exposed beams and planks. lets see after the next stage if the flow remains...but for now there is hope.
the problems is....it is now just a big room with nothing in it...no sink, no fireplace...just lots of glue that needs to be scraped off by hand before we can rent the sanding machine. if you do not see a post after next weekend....i have been sucked up by the cabin/shack or am stuck to the floors and can't get up.
ps...can you see the before ceiling in the photo...high gloss, varnished plywood..with layers and layers of varnish. i bet they put a new one on every year. fancy.

Night and Day! The "Norwegy" is emerging...I can see it! Your cruising...really you are, it might not feel like it but you are...as for the glue scraping thing...just remember the cooler!
Looking good! xo
I love the process- when it's over I miss the creative fun. Doing it slowly give me time to test out ideas before I commit big bucks to them.
hey sara-
i agree with that...what's next. i will keep that in mind today while scaping the floor....its all the process. :)
