The bathrooms were 60 years of paint and irregularity. After 4 hours of scraping and a special primer called 'Gripper' (bc it sticks to ANYTHING) we managed to create a blank and sorta crap free canvas.

I painted these bathrooms for 2 full days. "It's all in the preparation." says my dad - a perfect and painting perfectionist. I frown.

Finally, we see signs a new counter. Demolition is OVER. It's amazing what even a frame does for the mind's eye.

I love wood tones!! And I love how incredibly messy our work environment looks on film.

We have been cleaning, painting, building, painting, and scraping superflous crap off of things that have no reasonable explanation for the superflous crap they hide behind. What we see is a clean and functional envirmonment emerging. Emerging from beneath the CRAP!
Coming soon to a coffee house near you.

Thank you! I can't quite see the forest for the tress yet, but it's coming alone. :)
