About Me

McLean, Virginia
My name is Keirsten Campbell and I am a wife and mother of 3 young boys. My life for the last 5 years has been busy raising kids, but inside I have had dreams of tapping into my creative side and remodeling a home. This blog is part inspiration photos I have compiled for the last few years of my life and part documentation of the building process. Enjoy!

Basement has drywall . . .

The whole house has drywall now - i took these pictures before the house was cleaned.  So it's a mess, but you get the idea of how it looks with new walls.  This coming week - with a holiday - is all the walls finished and then flooring and trim work begins.

Cleared for Insulation

We just received approval to insulate  - so next week will change the look of the interior of the home dramatically.  Here are some final shots of rooms with all the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing lines complete.

The Siding on the Front of the House - YEAH!

They have been working on the HVAC for the last few weeks, so not much to show.  But they did start siding the front of the house, so we do not have to look at the gray blocks any more.

Rear Siding Started on and almost finished

You can see some of the rear siding in the porch, and how the corners look with the left side of the house.
