We spend half of the Memorial Day weekend working on the basement (the other half was split between driving and hanging out with friends). Below are some pictures of the newly sheetrocked basement:
This is the corner of the basement where my reading nock will be – you can see the edge of the bookshelve on the left. [@more@]
Here is a better view of the bookshelve I build into a 2×6 wall. It was a lot of work to build it, but it's going to be so worth it!
This is a picture from the 'family room' looking towards the new bathroom and laundry room

Don’t you want to paint before you put up the bookshelf fully up?
Unfortunately I had to install the bookshelf first as the brackets holding everything together are underneath the sheetrock. =/
We will just have to be extra careful – and use plenty of tape/plastic to keep the shelves paint less. =)
Whne are you shooting to be done with the project?
I’m hoping to prime the walls tomorrow so we can start painting next weekend. If all goes well, we will be done in early June. =/
That’s the goal at least…
Good luck with that we started repainting our house last summer and still haven’t finished. Jenn has plans to start agian this summer.
