More Dining Room Updates

The dining room continues to see more progress.   With the wall down, there was painting to be done, a chuck of flooring that needed to be patched/repaired, and other repairs to come.  We really wanted to do a happy dance when we went to Home Depot and they still had the flooring in stock.  We don’t necessarily love the flooring, but it saved us a ton of money to just fill in the gap instead of replacing all the flooring. 

This is the progress of the paint and furniture placement.  Still have to do the trim painting around the ceiling (not my forte!).

I had no clue what the process would be to fix the floor, but it was way more detailed than I thought it would be.  First Ryan had to put a layer of plywood down.

Then he found some cheap peel and stick tile to get the floor level because of all the layers of old linoleum under the current floor.

Then he had to remove the cut out tiles, and put in the new tile.

Can’t even tell the difference at all!  We still have wall patching to do and some beam work that we are going to add for detail.

It is a slow process, but super exciting!  I can now have a family Thanksgiving in my new dining room with room for a good 20 people if we get cozy.  I will do another update with lighting soon.  I am so thrilled about my new pendant lights…old style Edison light bulbs.  Exciting!!
