Remodeling: Bathroom and more

We took on a few major projects in the house this year.  We wanted to add a bathroom to the basement for two reasons: 1) We wanted a good space for guests who come to visit, and 2) We wanted a bathroom accessible for people when we are hanging out downstairs.

So, Travis Miller (Miller Construction) oversaw the project.  We took the previous guest room (which I don’t have a really good picture of) and split it in half to make a full bath in one space and a office for Jeremy in the other space.  Here are some pictures of the bathroom:

         

And the office:

   

That meant that some other spaces got a few facelifts as we maneuvered boxes and furniture.  We added 3 bookcases to the basement (by consolidating other bookcases scattered around):

We used one bookcase upstairs to make a nicer area in my office.  And added Madison’s sewing stuff in there as well.

Jeremy’s old office/storage room became the new guest room/storage space.  We plan to add a few decorations so it is not so spartan, but I like the space it gives guests.

We created shelving space (from my office where it housed toys) to hold travel and camping things and relocated toys to the guest/storage room:
