Sadly, I can't locate the source of a number of these images. If you happen to know any of them, please let me know and I'll update the info!

There is a lot of work to be done in this room, including a new floor! Tonight it begins!

In other news, in coming weeks, as we continue to work on the house, I've been asked to review a few products from CSN stores. If you're not familiar with the company, they sell an incredibly wide range of home products from barstools to bedroom suits. I look forward to this challenge and hope you'll find it interesting as well.
