The office + guest space room about 2008 and now. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #notasquarecornerinthehouse #diy
On Bradstreet:
New AdvanTech subfloors are a huge improvement over the nasty #bad70sreno particle board subfloors. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #notasquarecornerinthehouse #diy
On Bradstreet:
Goodbye carpet. There's now more than three outlets in the room, too. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #notasquarecornerinthehouse #oldfarmhouse #diy
On Bradstreet:
The hall carpet (which is only a remnant over particle board subfloor) is the only remaining carpet in the house. The doors for all the bedrooms have to wait until we do the hall because of the floor. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #

The office + guest space renovation. New subfloor, hardwood, electrical, insulation, and paint. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #notasquarecornerinthehouse #diy
On Bradstreet:
The smallest bedroom, now Alex's office + guest space renovation is complete minus a few details that we put on hold so we can focus on the holiday season. I'll get curtains hung this week, for instance. This was Alex's childhood bedroom (and more recentl

It's that time again. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #diy

Up next, the office/guest room, formerly @bradstreetfarm's childhood bedroom. Alex is repairing some springy subfloor boards and he has removed almost all of the #bad70sreno particle board subfloor. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #di

Now that Adam's room is completed we are beginning the renovation of the future office, formerly Alex's childhood bedroom. #bradstreetfarm #diy #bad70sreno #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse

Adam's room before + after. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #diy
On Bradstreet:
The oak floor is a major improvement. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #diy
On Bradstreet:
Adam's closet, while it still retains its old farmhouse lean, now has lighting, storage, and doors. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #diy
On Bradstreet:
Adam's room. His westerly room faces Bradstreet Brook, big old ash, oak, and linden trees, the ridge, the blackberry patch, and the lake. He gets warm, buttery afternoon light (but not on the day I took after photos, of course.) #bradstreetfarm #thisoldho
On Bradstreet:
As I did when we finished Olivia's room, I'm posting some before and afters of Adam's room, which is completed. Again, I'm finishing up some details in his room and will post more photos soon, but here are some that show our completed work. Adam has been

Work continues on Adam's room. We're in the mudding, sanding, and nailing down paint colors stage. #bradstreetfarm #diy #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse
On Bradstreet:
Adam and Alex are getting Adam's subfloor up the stairs. Don't you just love the #bad70sreno front door? I'm looking forward to our front door project someday. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #diy #oldfarmhouse

These boards were milled here on the farm back in 1861 or so. Some have to be 17-inches wide. #bradstreetfarm #oldfarmhouse #thisoldhouseneedslove #diy

Buh-bye last of the popcorn ceilings in this #oldfarmhouse. #bad70sreno #bradstreetfarm #diy

Sometimes you catch a break when renovating. #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #oldfarmhouse #bad70sreno

One of four outlets in the entire room. That's changing. #before #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #bad70sreno #oldfarmhouse

Going. All of it. #before #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #bad70sreno #oldfarmhouse

Mmmm, so nice. #bad70sreno #bradstreetfarm #thisoldhouseneedslove #before
On Bradstreet:
Go ahead, pick your favorite. Is it the rusty brown filthy deep pile carpet, filthy popcorn ceiling, orange stained trim, or dated wallpaper? Adam's room before (formerly his aunt's childhood bedroom), and we begin demo today. #thisoldhouseneedslove #brad
On Bradstreet:
All his yellow really works in this temporary space. Demo on his actual bedroom begins tomorrow. #bradstreetfarm #oldfarmhouse #diy #thisoldhouseneedslove

We're moving Adam into Olivia's old bedroom (and future office/guest space) so that we can begin his bedroom renovation. #bradstreetfarm #oldfarmhouse

Up next-laying some hardwood. Yes, despite sinusitis that was worse than having all four of my wisdom teeth removed when I was 20, all the painting got done, thanks to the inspired application of Icy Hot to my aching cheekbones. #notgonnabreakmystride #br
