Extreme Makeover Week!

Mom and Dad and Cecilia spent a few days with me this week working very hard to transform the downstairs of our house into a new suite for Milada, Azra and Kico (Milada's dog). We were all quite sick but managed to push through and get an incredible amount of work done.

Walls got painted in Milada's room, Azra's room, their bathroom, and the family room ...

Dad stayed very busy installing two new light fixtures, a dog gate at the bottom of the stairs, and additional shelves in our shoe closet as well as assembling a couple pieces of furniture!

 Mommy and I painted a couple pieces of furniture white ...

 There was an assembly line of Roman shades being sewn and assembled by Mommy and Cecilia ...

Dad and Cecilia also helped get started on applying privacy film to the windows on the French door to Milada's room. This is a project I still have to finish. 

Cecilia and Mommy undertook the huge task of recovering the seats of the dining chairs with a pale gray fake leather to coordinated better with the new living room. I still have to paint the chandelier silver to finish the dining room.

And finally, the reveal ... including Azra's accent wall, new duvet cover, and wall art ...

A rose-colored bathroom with additional storage and new towels ...

New curtains, pillow covers, and throws in the family room ...

And the biggest transformation of all ... the former bright green bird room turned into a bedroom for Milada.

So downstairs is nearly done though Miran and I still have a few more tasks (bath hooks and shelves, a full length mirror, and a couple of pendant lights to be hung as well as the vanity to be assembled in Milada's room). We are very much looking forward to Azra and Kico's arrival on Tuesday and Milada's hopefully in a few weeks!
