If these walls could talk....

They would probably say, "What the $&*#% took you so long?!"

Three years, three months, and sixteen days after we closed on our house (but who's counting?), we finally have some walls in our unfinished dungeon basement. Before I continue, I realize that if we're getting technical, this is merely the framework. But for the sake of feeling like progress has been made, and because it's my blog, I'm calling them walls, mmmkay?

So ladies and gentleman (hello? anyone still out there who cares?), I now present the proof of our progress:

The first wall


It's up!

Adding the doorway to the laundry room, plus one of the walls for the shower in the bathroom

Okay, there's only so many photos of 2x4s I can show before it starts to get a little redundant. That's all I really have time to post right now, but I had to stop being a tease and actually show the goods. Well, you know what I mean.

I've also determined that summer is not exactly the best time to start any large project, because there are too many other things going on. So at this rate, maybe I'll have more walls to show by, say, November? I kid, I kid... hopefully.

  1. Looking good! Seriously, save the drywall stage, this 2x4 stage is awfully satisfying right?

  2. I would be insanely excited for new walls!! It's like you got an entire room! I am also super slow to complete things, so don't feel pressured by time. It's your house and your time - do it as you want!

  3. Woohoo!!! That's awesome. Progress is progress! We haven't gotten down to our basement yet. It's still in a pretty creepy/grimy state. Someday!
