With the boys getting older, and focusing on sports more, we decided to make it into a little gym.
Now that the kitchen renovation is done, we decided to start working on putting it together.
The first step was to clean it out... a lot easier said than done!
We've moved most of this stuff out to go for a yard sale or to donate.
My gold antique loveseat was moved into the parlor (I will update photos of that room soon!)
The secretary desk has been moved into the living room, but we need to re-veneer the front of the three drawers. That will be a winter project!
My antique Lincoln couch is still in the corner out there. Not ideal, but it needs to be re-upholstered, and I want to keep it safe & dry (and it is too heavy & long to move to the attic).
There will be more updates to come...
We've picked out the paint colors, but this past week has been too hot to be painting out there.
The rug is in good shape (we peeked underneath to see if there were hardwood floors, but unfortunately, it's just plywood sub-flooring)
For now, we've moved the exercise equipment in:
The built in shelves will provide some good storage in there.
Here's a list of what still needs to be done:
-painting
-re-run the electric
-install heating
-decorating
-adding equipment
Happily, the boys have been out there using it already! I still go to the real gym to do my group classes, but this gives me another option to get a workout in. It's a lot of fun to work out with the kids!
