We live in a 90-year-old house and have done quite a few projects. Many have been minor cosmetic things (new paint throughout, new carpet, new fireplace mantel) but some have been major (new back sidewalk and retaining wall, new back door). Currently, the husband is working on finishing our sunroom. He stripped out all the old lathe and plaster, insulated the walls, put in new windows, raised the ceiling to follow the roof line, drywalled and painted. He's finishing up staining the trim and then it will pretty much be done, thank goodness. This project has been ongoing for more than a year and I'm ready to have that living space back.
Our next project will be updating our tiny full bathroom. We'll also have the house painted this summer, but that's not something we want to attempt ourselves. We'd also like to fix our upstairs screened-in porch, but that will all depend on time and money.
