The street side front porch is coming along quite nicely. However, much of the progress since last week is not very noticeable or photo-worthy. Since I am not obligated to adhere to a strict ORC posting schedule now that the official challenge is over, I thought I'd check in with our 2018 Project List this…

The weather here is still abysmal, and I haven't been able to start on even the front porch demo for the One Room Challenge. Instead, I am using my time to obsess over the details in the guest bathroom. Keep in mind that this bathroom is the one that our son will use when he…

Demo in this room is so different from our past projects. Since this is our main bathroom, even though we are tearing it up right now, we still need to use the shower, sink, and toilet every day. It is a challenge to balance the demolition without impairing the function. After each workday, we have to…
