closet

We have decided to refinance the house as the rates are so low right now.  We have to get a new appraisal, so we decided to put up a quick closet off of Isabelle's room, so it can officially be counted as a bedroom, bc right now it isn't considered one.  Plus putting the bathroom downstairs should give us a higher appraisal which will help with the loan of course.
Ryan took the door off that is there currently and flipped it around so it opens inside the room.  Right now it opens the other way and hits the venting duct work on the other side 
Gideon tried to help for a while.  then he got distracted, but the intention was there.  I kept calling him back asking if he was still helping or not

What was a weekend project took an extra day because Ryan used a sick day from house projects =)  He got really ill on sunday for some reason, but we finished it up on Monday instead



All of the sheet rock is up and putting on the light switch plate

Isabelle in her "finished" closet.  The hanging bar is to the left and will have a high bar and a shorter half bar so one side is for dresses and then shirts can go top and bottom.  Behind where Isa is standing now Ryan wants to put up shelving or a shoe rack type structure.  But for now that's all that's needed for the appraisal to consider it a useable closet which makes the room an official bedroom.  Mud, tape, paint, etc. will come later.  Probably after Isabelle goes to college.  because let's face it, it's just a basement closet right?
