I...JC, I'm sorry that your comment went astray. I just found it and published it. To answer your question: I kind of wondered where everything went, too. Some things were tossed, some recycled, some went to Goodwill, some out to the garage, and many things went to Bill's new music room/den where our old bedroom was. It's all much more organized there, thanks to the addition of some shelves and other storage pieces. <br /><br />Now there are no more "nests" of disorganized things anywhere in the house. Well, a few things are waiting to be put away in the guest room...clairzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076402619649343527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024200559736996534.post-32511236492427805852015-03-25T13:31:16.113-06:002015-03-25T13:31:16.113-06:00Hi, Claire!

We all have those areas that get the leftovers as we work on other parts of the house. Kudos to you for turning yours into such a lovely space! Nice job!

There are French (sort of) doors leading to the patio, which is now just fenced around with metal fencing. We are getting up our courage to get some estimates on having a wall built around the patio so that we can have our private courtyard. <br /><br />Then, of course, the bathroom adjoining the bedroom will have to be dealt with. It needs all new fixtures--I'm afraid a simple cleaning up and painting won't really solve its problems. I'm collecting ideas on Pinterest...clairzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076402619649343527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024200559736996534.post-48309901161930847922015-03-11T05:30:00.332-06:002015-03-11T05:30:00.332-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.clairzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076402619649343527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024200559736996534.post-70015306561819800212015-03-10T16:07:03.551-06:002015-03-10T16:07:03.551-06:00Brilliant Clair!

We love our screen porch because we can open all our doors and feel like we're outside when we're in. (That's the kitchen/living area and the Florida room.... our bedroom is still not re-done and we have a store room almost as bad as your 'before' (not quite only because it isn't that big) that is going to be a new bathroom some day maybe.
