Oh...
there is so much to fix up here because the previous owner decided he was going to be not so fabulous with his reno efforts.
So Tim & I are left to our own devices to try and fix the mess. .....
For the most part, so far.......we have decided to paint. This will hide a majority of the flaws but for now...it makes the room more warm and welcoming.
We'll have to re-adjust a few door frames so that we can put proper trim on everything...
The two back bedrooms will be torn apart to re-insulate and to re-drywall.
Bree is looking forward to moving down there.....and I am looking forward to decorating a guest bedroom.
I have recently fallen in love with the Cabella's catalogue....there home edition is nice because it is full of cabin decor.
I am hoping to go with a Canadian log cabin feel.
With panelling running sideways on the wall to give it that whitewashed cabin look.
I have had my eye on a red wool blanket at Hudson's bay in Banff, and I want to make a head board out of Red patterened Tiolle and birch trees towering over the head of the bed....I saw it all in a Canadian House & Home magazine and It looked so dreamy.... I've enclosed a photo of it above. We've decided to do the basement first...so we'll have a completed livable space when we decide to renovate the upper floor.
anyway have a look see at the photos. the basement and the red bedroom.
Mind the bear. He's a little off kilter and needs some re-adjustment....Tim has a deer mount still at the taxidermist...hopefully it will return home soon. And cabellas sells a nice beaver pelt stretched out on a frame....
