The saga of the door knobs

Like a lot of things in the house, we had selected the door knobs long ago, but we had not purchased them. This will lead to some heartache I fear. In January, I ordered the first two knobs. They are beautiful. Anyway, the website from which I ordered had sent me a sale notification so I thought I would order a few more. And I discover that the door knob that has been made for decades (okay at least years) is no longer being made. We counted what was needed and scoured the Internet and found one place with all the knobs. They came today. And they were definitely worth it.

Jen's closet progress

We are missing at least two critical items in my closet - the covers for the rail that the organizer sits on. So Eric is installing the area by my closet's washer/dryer. We don't have those appliances in there yet, but some day that will keep me from going up and down the stairs with the laundry. Anyway, here is a before picture from yesterday morning and after when Eric stopped last night. Any worries that I had about having enough storage are gone now!

Main wall of Eric's closet

Actually we have nearly all of my clothes in there too while Eric starts to work on my closet. Hopefully we won't fight while sharing for a little bit. A word to the wise, having your own separate closets was not on my wish list for house, but it is awesome! I am calming down about the hanging space now that I have seen it. We have not had adequate closet space since we lived in the condo - 3 years ago.

P.S. I think closets are even harder to take pictures of than bathrooms. I did not think that was possible!

There are still a million pieces left over

The main wall in Eric's closet is done. It is so beautiful. BUT there are a million pieces left in Murphy's room. Somehow those all have to go in my closet. Yikes!

Master closets

It has been a long time. Things have been busy here, but sadly not the in the house working way.

Eric is in the air on his way to Phoenix for work, and our master closets have just been delivered. So honey, here are all the pieces we have to put together. Yikes! But at least the drawers are already constructed. I think that it is good!
