Reno's Part 2

Just when Hubs and I finally got all the reno's done and paid for we decided to go back at it. We decided to work on our spare bedrooms since neither of them had been touched since we moved in. We basically put beds in and set them up. Initially, we set out to paint the bigger of the spare rooms to get it done since we had the paint sitting around. Then it turned into ripping off the trim and baseboards. We started talking and decided since the room was basically empty, we might as well go look at carpeting. We have been wanting to replace the carpet since we moved in because there were stains on it, and based on the condition underneath of the carpet we pulled up in the living room, it definitly needed to go. We bought the carpet for our bedroom at End of the Roll, which is an awesome place to pick up flooring at a discounted price, and decided to go back to see what they had.

With carpet samples from our carpet and hardwood in hand we headed back to the store to find something that would go with our current selections. As luck would have it, they had the exact carpet we put in our bedroom (we were shocked since we bought our carpet almost 6 months ago and weren't expecting to find it still there). We decided to buy enough for both spare bedrooms so our rooms would all match. Within the next week or so they are going to come install the new carpeting in the 2 bedrooms. This meant we had to move everything out of the smaller spare bedroom and paint as well. We figured its easier to paint when we aren't worried about the carpet, so last night we ripped off baseboards and trim in the other bedroom and painted it as well.

So thats what we have been up to this weekend, busy with more reno's... Pics will soon
