We’ve been blown away with how quickly the upstairs framing has come together.
It’s been really cool to work with our contractor friend to do this project and make a few minor changes during this framing process. For example our floorplan shows a corner pantry and while I think they are so cute they haven’t been very functional for us in the past.
I think Murphy’s law says if one person even opens the corner pantry every one else in the house will suddenly flock to the kitchen in starvation mode and cause a serious kitchen traffic jam.
So I wanted to change the wall and door on our corner pantry to a flat wall and pocket door & Viola! We framed the pantry with a pocket door and a flat wall.
We started to run low on lumber and my dad picked up a load for us so our builders could stay of track.
The walls in the basement are 8 feet. The walls on the main floor are 9 feet except in the front room and great room behind it. Those walls start at 12 feet and then they will have a vault above that. Maybe next year we will have a very tall Christmas tree!
Oh Traci– how thrilling to finally get your very own ๐๐castle! Hard work and equally rewarding too. I’m keeping track of your progress. Can’t wait for the grand opening! ๐ฉ
Thank you! I just saw your kind comment! Sure miss you!
