Condo Progress Continued

Okay, it's been a while since I have updated on condo progress. We still have to paint the 3rd floor and redo the entire 2nd floor bathroom, but we are making some progress. It helps me to see that if I blog about it :) The first is a picture of our new dining room table. This table turns into an 5X5 ft. square with the leaf that's in it and we have 8 chairs. Much more helpful for having game nights at our house than our tiny little Walmart table. It's also counter-height, so Mani can't put his nose on the table during dinner.
Next is a picture of our new couch for the 3rd floor, bought this summer. Much nicer for movies than two chairs! Note the mini-fridge. Thanks to good friends who donated that to our cause, we no longer have to walk down 36 stairs to get a drink when watching TV.
Next is the finished downstairs bathroom! Thanks to a good friend who helped rip the old vanity out, move the plumbing, re-drywall the wall, and put in a smaller vanity, it looks great! (lesson learned in home improvement...nothing is as simple as it seems!) I included a before picture for you from right when we bought the place.

The next two pictures are the fruits of a trip to an antique row a few miles from our house on my birthday. We needed a mantle and were looking for a stained glass window to hang on one of our massive walls. A guy gave us an awesome deal on these two together. The wood and the build of the mantle match our table almost exactly! We still have some tile work to do around the fireplace and replacing of the masonry on the hearth, but we were happy to find this!

And finally, as we close in on the first floor being done, here is a before and after picture to enjoy.
