Did you spray that foam stuff in the column?

Ya... I used the foam. Worked well. I need to go down there and finish it up. I just want it to be done with.

I'm done, mother f'ers!!!

Got the carpet in and the closet finished. Now we just have to figure out what is going to go down there.

About 4.5 months in total time. Most work done on the weekends. Now onto the next project.










Cedar closet with shelves....

I got a really good deal on the carpet. $1.99 sq ft installed. I know a guy who knows the owner, so I was given a break.

It's a nylon frieze... A berber will be much more inexpensive compared to a frieze.
