Is the video a little nerdy? Yes.
Did three months spent underground give me liscence to post a highly dorky video on my blog? You betcha.
In case you can't view the video, here are a few stills to give you an idea of how far we've come.
The fireplace area when we first bought the house:
The fireplace after the basement got wet:
The bar area when we first moved in:
The bar area when things got soggy:
The bar today:
The stair room today:
We LOVE.
Having poured blood, sweat and tears into this little hideaway, we're pretty pleased with the results. There are a few finishing touches we need to add, but for now - we're happy to kick back by the fire and toast our amazing new basement.

ReplyDeleteToooooootally awesome! Holy crap. I LOVE your wood/concrete bar. This whole this is some serious DIY awesomeness. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI think the most brilliant part is the built in shelves and adding molding to the ledge under the window. Defines the space very well!

ReplyDeleteThe renovation is successful. I can see it in all the pictures that you share. It really makes that whole basement look so new. I like the new look of the basement bar.
