My laundry room

Dear husband started this project in fall/winter of 2008. It was suppose to be a weekend project, but then he hit a few snags.

To start... we have this little walk through in the back of the house. It is almost like a small hallway (maybe 3'x4'). It separated the backdoor "mudroom" from the back bedroom. Really it was a waste of space. However, one of those walls backed up to another waste of space. This one being a closet in the little man's room that was almost 6' deep.

So what do we do? We reclaim the space of course. This is where the project became time consuming. Poor Ken... when he goes to knock out the wall he finds that it is the original exterior wall to the house. Long story short, after more than eight months and lots of trips to the hardware store I finally have a laundry room and Ben has a use-able closet.

Thanks babe! No more trips to other peoples houses, the laundromat. I can wash clothes and fabric whenever I want!

Yeah!
