Upstairs at Canvas

The upstairs at our new Canvas house is just about complete. It lacks a door frame (and a door) and that's about it! The upstairs was once just a strangely shaped room with low ceilings, now it is our office and meeting space. Mike and Andrew built a wall in the center of the room to divide it in half. Now when you walk upstairs you are in the "office" and you can walk through to the meeting space.

Up the stairs...

After the wall was built, the next project was to install a bannister. We completed the project in about a day. And by we, I mean Mike built it and I assisted. :) It took a long time, but it turned out really well. It helps make the room feel more open.

We think it turned out really nice.

Then we just needed to paint and install the flooring. The paint was supposed to be a dark grey, but on our walls it ended up looking quite lavender. I don't mind! And the laminate flooring looks really nice. Here are some "after" photos!

A major thank you to all of you who have donated to the Canvas Welcome Project! These renovations would not be possible without your generosity...
