Well, my biz stuff is... finally! to the cabin! Wooo hooo!
 
Mind you, now my bedroom is a complete disaster, and actually so is the cabin right now, but everything is in the building that it should be in and tomorrow I'll keep working on getting everything into it's proper PLACE where it should be, and all will be right in the world again. lol
 
So I thought I'd share some pics of the cabin, before and after. Many of you have seen the before pics, but some of our newer folk haven't, so I'll share anyways.
 
Plus, I'll be honest, I'm bragging, about the great work my dh, and son, (and me a little too) have done! I'm personally amazed at the transformation this building has taken over the past 2.5 years.

Now here's the exciting part!

The inside of the cabin AFTER we had it almost gutted, but we still have the old ceiling partly up when this pic was taken. Notice the trusses visable? We totally redid the entire inside. When we bought the place, the toilet had been built out onto the side roof. I wish I had a pic of that. I think my dh has one, I just don't have one on the computer but I may just have to scan his copy because it's about the most halrious thing i've ever seen. A crapper built on a roof, like an indoor outhouse. Seriously. The guy was pretty darn proud of himself too. Thanks to his brilliance, we had to re-route all the plumbing so we could actually bring it INTO the cabin, where it should have been built in the first place.
 
So, here's a photo of the before, but after. Before the good stuff was done to it, but after we gutted it. Don't mind the junk.

And...... drumroll please....
 
Today!

And around the corner to where my sewing 'station' will be.

 
Dh says I need to invest in some blinds now or I'll be roasting while I sew in the mornings. I really dispise the thought of spending even more money on this place, but I think he may be right. lol
 
I guess one reason why I'm so proud of the work we've done, is because we've had to do it on an extremely tight budget, while still doing top quality work. The slate tiles at the door we salvaged from a job, the laminate flooring we scored on sale, the bathroom tiles, it cost us 20.00 to do the whole floor because of the deal we got on them, yet they are gorgeous tiles! I forgot to snap a pic of the bathroom all done, but I have one from the other day:

 
Even the shower we got on sale. We simply bought things as we could afford them, and as we found each thing on sale. It's been a tedious process with my dh pretty much out of work all winter, but we've done it, and I'm so glad we did! Dh got the permits all signed off yesterday and the cabin & workshop can FINALLY be put on our property assessment! It's about time!

Praise God!
