That's the old linoleum tile that was in the bedroom of the rental. I was pretty excited about cleaning it up and refurbishing it. What a fantastic green basket weave pattern! But Mike vetoed that in favor of finishing the pine wood floor boards underneath. To each his own!
This was the old floor of the closet in the rental side. I'd like to meet the design mastermind who chose all these tiles. But a little water damage rots out the subfloor, and people have a kneejerk reaction to put down a sturdy false floor:
I guess that's better. Check out the leopard wall!
No after photos for that spotty sheetrock yet.
Here's the new tile in the bathroom.
Mike's working hard here to get the grout in. Color: Haystack. Outcome: Awesome.
Feast your eyes on some during and after ceiling repair work.
That's some quality sheetrock floating. Nice work Mike and Mrs. Kaufman!
Unfortuantely, there are no current photos documenting the backyard fence makeover. But let me tell you, Mike's dad is a miracle worker with recycled treated lumber.
Now if only we could get rid of the lingering sewer gas stench...
Love that green basket weave linoleum! as linoleum goes, that one is so wonderful and unique. it has an old fashion feel to it - i'd love to know how old it is.
ReplyDeletemaybe you could reuse it somewhere else in the house. loooove it!
congrats on your new home! :)
