Our laundry "room"







So here it is, as promised. The finished laundry area. I am so thankful for having a husband who will not only cut holes in walls for me, but will then turn them into something marvelous. To complete this project Justin had to pull down the lathe and plaster (thanks, Tim!) run plumbing up from the basement, run a gas line in from somewhere (I'm not up to speed on the whole process), create a vent for the dryer, drywall, put up a marble "backsplash" (thanks, Dad!), tile the floor, and then the tricky part - get the washer and dryer into the hole and hook them up. Justin's knowledge on how to do each of these steps amazes me and I am blessed to have such a handy husband.

It looks wonderful, and so does your door! Must be handy to have main-floor laundry now. Isn't it wonderful to have a hubby who's willing to tackle projects like that? I don't know what I'd do if Tim wasn't so handy - guess we'd spend more money and buy a new house that wouldn't need fixing for a long time! Hmmm, that doesn't sound too bad actually :0)

It is so nice to have main floor laundry and now you can advertise that if you sell?? I miss my laundry room now that I have to walk or drive to do mine.
