Nearing the Finish Line


Its been 6 months and we're finally putting the finishing touches on the long awaited youth room. Soon it will be time to rip into those Ikea boxes and accessorize! This Wednesday night the teens will start meeting upstairs in their new space. They will be sitting in folding chairs in the midst of vast emptiness but they are thrilled! And as much as I love them - I am thrilled to get my living room back. :)


Feast your eyes on this pictoral tour....


These aren't just any set of unfinished laminate stairs....they guard the entrance to the NYI Fortress of Solitude - no "little kids" allowed. 

Sorry its a little dark but this is the view from the top of the stairs. 

The "snack counter" - our magnum opus. Its my FAVORITE part.
 It will be finished in angle iron, faux aluminum siding, and glass tile. Awesome! The stools have yet to arrive.

The main wall. There's actually a big TV hanging up there in the middle now. Hopefully, they'll have their own worship band soon - hence the stage. 

Colors chosen: Coffee and Sunrise Beach. It even sounds delicious. 

We've come full circle - you're now facing the stairs again. This little nook will house the 3 - in - 1 game table. Air hockey. Pool. Foozeball.

The Next Frontier - Children's Church. 

Maybe this side will go faster. Cross those fingers and toes. Better yet - bring those fingers and toes to Jasper and pick up a sanding block. a paint brush. a hammer. We could really use your help.

Almost there,

Mandy
