Renovations!

Press Check

Hello friends, ah, don't I wish I were writing about studio renovations but, alas, I am not, BUT…we are having some home renovations done. We are putting built-ins in the living room, they are all finished but need to be professionally painted white, a new built-in desk in the family room (also needs to be painted white) and finally putting a microwave hood combo above the stove. Here are a few in-progress pics and after they are painted and all styled-up, I'll send out new updated photos…Andy's cousin Chris is a professional Carpenter + jack-of-a-tradeskills!
