Projects complete!

We FINALLY have some completed projects done around the house!

Here Brian made a built in cabinet for the upstairs TV. It also has a nice bookshelf and toy storage below.  We are still looking for a glass shelf to put in for multiple book shelves, but for now this is a huge improvement from before.



Outside, I posted earlier that we put in eave vents and shutters (thanks Scot for the help :)) and now we have a painted front door and landscaping!!!

This is a before picture. I know there is snow on the ground, but this is the only picture I have of the front of the house without any improvements.


And this is after! It looks much better if you ask me.

Our last completed project actually got started last October!!!!! And now it is finally finished. This is now the kids bathroom on the main level of our house. The builder used a tinted primer instead of actual paint, so after a year of taking showers in there the drywall tape started peeling up around the shower. So we ended up tiling around the back of the shower, ripping up the old tile and replacing it. I also had Brian build a new vanity. You can find the same one at Pottery Barn for $899! It is just like this one. And after adding some paint (that someone else returned to Home Depot and we purchased for $5) and a new mirror (that was on clearance for $20) our bathroom is complete!

So here is before.


And here is after!




What's next for the Timmer project list???? Oh I don't know, we are only have twins in under 11 weeks and their room hasn't been started yet! And I think I can scrounge up a couple of other projects that Brian can work on too!
