I think the last time I really talked about the "Spa Room" is when we were planning on turning it into a baby room, when we were expecting Baby W.... which was all of five years ago.
Obviously, time and life had other plans, and that spa room has sat there untouched these last few years. Finally this year, we hit it hard.... and finally got it DONE!
I'll be posting this in two segments, one to show the work-in-progress, and one to show the finished project. These posts will be pretty picture-heavy.

Beneath the old tile floor was the original wood floors,
but part of it was rotten from an old water leak under the whirlpool tub.
|
 |
| Plywood was screwed down directly onto the original floor. |
 |
| Little I loves to help! |
 |
| The new wiring going in nicely. |
 |
| I'm pretty happy with my first time hanging insulation. It was much easier than I expected. |
 |
| Sheet-rock going up. This is always the part where we discover just how NOT square this old house is. |
 |
| We left this wall in the original siding. This was the outside of the house at one time. |
 |
| Mud is drying. |
 |
Handy Husband took his time making sure the sheetrock looked really good.
Lots of mud, sanding, mud, sanding.
|
 |
Adding the window trim and sills.
Eventually we still plan on replacing these windows, but there's no hurry.

Another look at the old siding on this wall.

In PART 2, we'll see the new lighting, paint, and carpet go in.
