daddy and son project for october
Matthew is always wanting to help Dad. This months project they tackled was removing the fireplace which we did not use and build a new Wood Burning Stove area which we love and use...it was in front of the fireplace for the last couple years. I think they did a GREAT and beautiful job together and wanted to brag a bit about my Men!!! Next the wood flooring goes in and the ugly green carpet goes by-by *LOL* BUT my project is painting the walls which I have been doing the last couple days *smiles* I love painting!!!
Building the area up...
Sturdy platform
Fire proofing added...I am the BIGGEST chicken and question every step as to the "safety and fire" issues
Dad shows Matthew how to spread the Tile Mortar
