Basement photos!

The time has finally come where I can show off our basement. I know I've teased for the last couple of weeks, but once the work was done it needed to be cleaned! So Tom and I cleaned it all up yesterday and I finally got around to taking pictures.

So here's the tour! 

Here is what the basement looked like before we started.  This corner is where the bathroom is now along with a storage closet and the bar area.

And here, to the left is where Brandon's room is now and the right side is the living room area. The one pole in the middle of this picture was removed! We were so excited about that!

And this is looking into the basement from right below the steps.

Here are the steps coming up from the basement, we weren't going to do the steps but the old carpet was pretty bad so we decided to have them recarpet the steps and fix the bottom step, you that one that step that mom broke her ankle on? LOL

And now the good pics!

 

And the carpeted steps! This is the same carpet that is in the basement.

Here is a picture from the bottom of the steps looking into the basement. We got all new tile below the steps as well so it all matches.

 

The living room area - Tom's got Cooper so I can take pictures.

 

 

 

Here is Brandon's room. The window we had to install to make a "legal" bedroom. This is a picture from the door looking into the bedroom.

Here is Brandon's closet.

And Brandon's room now. Notice the mess already? We let him go this time because we just finished the closet organizer.

And here are his closet doors on, notice they are closed! LOL

This is an open area where Tom wants to put a pool table. This is also the place where the pole was taken out, there would have been  a pole right in the middle where you enter the room. We are so happy that is was able to be removed.

Micayla is working on a puzzle right now and it has great lighting in this area so she's doing it downstairs

If you look at the picture above, the first door on the left is the storage closet, this is below the steps and the picture below is with the door open. They had some extra carpeting so they carpeted it. I say it should be Cooper's playroom. But we'll need the storage! LOL

Oh and the 2nd door is the workout room, this room does not have carpet we're debating on what to do with it, maybe get some of those rubber mats or something, but I didn't take a picture of that.

Here is the bar area

And the bathroom

Closet doors in the bathroom

And the bathroom with the new shower curtain and accessories.

I think I need a bigger towel or a smaller towel holder. LOL

And a picture looking from the living room area. We were hoping to put this ladder shelf in the closet in the bathroom but it wouldn't fit, we didn't measure correctly so we're putting it right where it's at for now.

And just because Cooper was crying!

And 5 minutes later - he's sleeping!

We are so happy with the way the basement turned out and the kids really love it, now they can have a place to watch TV and play video games without interrupting us or having to play in there rooms. We can't wait for everyone to see it!
