So it may not look like it but…
Major progress has been made in Beaufort! What used to be that yucky, tiny upstairs bath and office is now little Will’s soon-to-be bedroom!
So it may be a bit hard to visualize as of yet…
But we think it’s going to be fabulous!
Picture built-in, nautical beds, an antique drum, some ships lights. A little boy’s dream!
The upstairs bathroom is framed.
The new windows haven’t been approved yet…
But keeping our fingers crossed!
This is a little hard to visualize but hang in. The first set of framing will be the door to Mom and Dad’s bathroom, and the smaller frame inside will be their closet.
Moving from the side is the bathroom then the pantry then into the kitchen.
The upstairs master may not be framed, but it is taped! The small boxes represent two pedestal sinks, the corner shower is in — well — the corner and the attractive 1970s beach chair is the — eh hem — water closet.
The bathtub will be underneath this window, so as to take advantage of water views from every angle. I’m fairly excited about two times the bubbles. Yes, that’s bubble bath and champagne.
A girl can dream, right?
We hope you’re all having a wonderful week!
Such a fun (yet messy) stage of the design process! Can’t wait to see how it all comes together.
Looking good. Starting to see it coming together.
It is amazing that you were able to get crews so quickly. Yes, I can visualize what you are doing and it is going to be beautiful! What a treat for Mother/daughter:)
This is all so exciting. I’m sure it will be beautiful in the end! Great bathroom in the last photo too!

So fun to see work in progress. Your getting there…
Yes a girl can dream. That is what we do……and then work feverishly to find a way to make that dream come true.
What fun to watch your dreams being built.
LOVE THESE POSTS!!! I am such a fan of “during.” I think it’s great when you can see something in process.
And I am a HUGE fan of blue tape. I keep it in my kit and use it all the time to show clients where something will be. Incredible helpful.
Hope all is well,
Amy
So exciting! I love seeing the before…and now I know how my readers felt, it IS fun to watch this progress!! I love the bathroom inspriation too…so elegant but inviting and the white does it every time!
Exciting! I can’t wait to see how it comes together.
looks promising – I bet it will be great considering your great design tastes!
Love watching your progress – such an exciting phase, full of possibilities! It makes my feet itch for another renovation project!! 😉
Wow… moving right along. Thanks for taking us on the journey.
Looking good so far!! Can’t wait to see more!

A girl can definitely dream!
I always find the ‘in between’ stage of a project exciting.
All of a sudden everything moves forward quickly and it all falls into place.
It’s going to be fab!
Have a lovely day,

Oh, it is going to be amazing, Kristy!!! I have a particular interest in little boy rooms, so that is one room I can’t wait to see when it’s finished.
I can tell you’re enjoying the “process”!!! Keep having fun.

WOW!! What a project!! It’s coming along!! I got a chuckle out of the bathroom being ‘taped’. You have to start somewhere, right!?!?
I can’t believe how fast things are progressing. At least it seems fast to me because I’m not at the job site daily 🙂
Nice!!

Yay, so exciting! You’re clever to be able to visualise it all – I can never do that!
Looking good! Can’t wait to see it all finished.
Take care,
Lori
Can’t wait to see the final product! I hate the process (all the dust and dirt) but the finish product is always nice.
I’m sure it will be stunning can’t wait for the “after” photos!
It’s going to be amazing! I’m assuming you have to go through a historic board for your window approval? That can be such a pain. Hopefully things will go smoothly:)
Love to watching work in progress. Bubbles will be flowing in new bath tub with a view! Look forward to more updates!:)
WOW~! it really is moving along. Waiting to hear about your PB trip. I found this blog post for tips for my Dixie Highway trip. Maybe of interest to you, too.

So fun to see your progress. The tape helps the visualization process. This journey will be fun for your readers too!

I’m glad that engineering jobs in calgary are being pushed through nowadays. You can’t even build a simple four-cornered house without studying the basics of this job. high to all you!
With the current state of the house, a good floor plan and just a little tweaking and its good to go. Another option is reinforcing the ceiling for added fire protection and its good.
