The table we found! |
Measuring the panels to cut out for the metal grates! These benches are actually going over baseboard heaters! |
Adding decorative molding to hold the grates in place |
We secured the top only one side so we could have added storage on the sides where the baseboards didn't run |
Hubby Approved |
Emma Approved |
Sorry roses.... (look at that mean mug!) hahaha |
The table again- and if it doesn't end up working? Well we didn't spend any money on him! |
Master closet ceilings scraped! |
Other side of master closet |
scraping living room |
This is what is looks like after popcorn texture is gone- much better... |
Lookin good!
