More Studio Progress!

So last weekend my sweet long-suffering husband put up the drywall in the basement.  We are trying to get everything ready for our SIL to come back next weekend to spray the ceilings, finish up two lights (in bathroom and cubbie) and do the plumbing in the bathroom.

So this is a view of the little cubbie under the stairs ... the little hideout for the grandkids. (the bathroom is to the left)  Going to have baskets and bins of coloring books, crayons, pencils, books to read in the cubbie w/ some big squisshy comfy pillows (bright colors!!!) for those that tire of the project du jour.  We also have a TV down there and i'll get some bean bags ... it will be crazy wonderful on all levels!!

This is view into the very tiny bathroom!  We only need a toilet and a sink and that's all that fits in there!  LOL ... it's going to be mega cute though!!  To the right of the door there's a little nook that can either install shelves or have some type of skinny pie safe cabinet.  We picked out a peel and stick laminate for the floor that looks like wood -- very pretty!

So once SIL is finished we can bring in Home Depot to lay the carpet.  I got the cheapest berber I could find and am putting a really good pad under it.  I have carpet in my current studio and in 5 years i have had one spill -- and that was a very sorrowful grandson ... so I'm well aware we might have issues, but that concrete is just TOO hard to stand on for long periods!  Home Depot also had FREE installation including stairs!!!  Whoop!!  I am thinking this  might be done a couple weeks b/4 Christmas!!

I have to pinch myself ... I'm really so so blessed to be able to have this big wonderful area for art!
