Previously on journey to home we decided that we are going to go with alright
So we are now over at the house and we walked in with a huge surprise
It looks like my dad came over here and he did the hallway and he did the second coat of paint
Inside the basement. It looks really really good. He did primer in the hallway
I didn't get to show you guys what out here looked like which kind of sucks
But you go back to the original house tour. You guys know that out here was wood paneling
So as soon as Dee and I opened the door, we're like what the hell cuz out here was brown
It was this color. That's how we left it, but my dad came over here and he primed the entire
hallway
So all of this has been done. We were actually coming over here to finish up the basement and then
Come into this area, but my dad came over here and he did the primer. He did one coat
So we need to do one more coat and then we can do paint. So that's good
So all of this
Behind
Yeah, so he did everything while we were away cuz we left on Friday so he must have came in here maybe Saturday
Maybe even Sunday and did all of this. So there's some wallpaper that we gotta tackle
I don't want to show over here too much because you guys will see that in another series
I just want to focus on the basement for right now
He primed here. Of course. He primed here. All of this was wood paneling dark wood, and then we came into here and
The walls are complete. So this is what it looks like close up
Very very nice
So he even came back and he filled
All the creases because Dee and I were gonna come over here and fill these in because they you could still see the wood
But no my dad finished
Everything so let's open up these curtains so we can let in the light
So they can really see how down here looks because we don't have much light down here, but the basement looks really good
so
I mean, of course with all this crap in the middle, you can't really tell but this is a huge difference
This is a huge difference
So things are coming along
I think he he helped us out because he really wants to start working on the floors
My dad will be doing some gray vinyl down here. So he
helped us out with the painting everything because he really wants to get started on the floors and
The faster paint is done the faster. He can do the floors. So
Yeah, he really he really helped us out
Because we were coming here to do a lot of work. We still had to UM. What else do we have to do?
We were supposed to send
One more coat. Yeah, I
Think he missed one cracker. He missed one crock right there
That's a
Okay, so let me step back so you guys can see the fireplace a lot of you guys said that you love the fireplace
So now you guys can see it with the white walls and then imagine the gray
Flooring, so I think it'll look good
So all of this is done. So this is what the basement pretty much would look like - all this other stuff
Here the bar looks really nice
For some of you guys some of you guys were wondering. Why are we keeping what paneling? Why aren't we doing?
drywall or whatever
we decided that a
farmhouse style would look really nice down here because farmhouse is very cozy and very relaxing and
Also if we were to remove all of this
Could you imagine the amount of work and money we would have to put into this so we decided to sand it and paint it
Versus ripping it all out putting up new walls and painting and all of that stuff. So
Yeah
Yeah, it's not like white white like porcelain white it's a little bit of a cream tint to it
And this was actually gifted to us from my dad. He had this paint
In the garage and we decided to just use it. So that's what it looks like
So the series the basement series will come to an end very soon because we're almost
Almost halfway done
We just got to do the floors and then we got to furnish the place a little bit of an idea of the furniture
I was thinking a sectional right here like a sofa bed sectional and then we have these two couches here that will
Go right here. And then
a nice little center table
we will have a
TV against this wall with a
TV stand I was thinking to put in a little Foose table foosball table D doesn't really like that idea
But it's not Walmart and it's kind of cheap and you can fold it up and put it behind the bar
You can fold it up and store it
Yeah, so so this would be like the nice chill spot with the gaming you got the bar with the drinks. So
I think it would be really nice when it's done. So
That's enough rambling for today. I want out for today for this scene. And yeah, hopefully you guys like it and remember
In here used to be this color. You used to be brown
And now it's wiped
So I ended up having to put my hair up because I was getting so hot I was upstairs
Removing wallpaper with my mom and I was getting really hot. So I had to put my hair up
but yeah currently in the family room and
This is what it looks like my dad and II finished
Painting the entire thing and it looks really really good as you guys can see it's super dark outside now
It's about maybe not a funk now. We just had dinner and
Yeah, so this is what everything is looking like
Next on the list is the floors which my dad will be doing. So, yeah
That is
The end we just closed up the curtains deep
Oops. See I do you didn't do a good job with taking the curtains down. Just let me just fix that
These curtains we're gonna replace them because they're kind of ugly, but for now to give the place some privacy
So we'll just keep them there for now
So we will see you guys in the next vlog. Bye
Everyone's I didn't want to make this vlog too short. I wanted to get it a little bit over 10 minutes
So just to end it off
I wanted to give you guys a little bit of an update just because I don't think I told you guys this but if you
Maybe saw you guys notice it but we had started painting the basement after we primed it
We started painting it and we were painting it in this color called
Birch white which was like an off-white yellowy color, and then we eventually decided to go with a different color. So we ended up using
Warm grey, so that's what is on the walls
Now we felt like the off-white color was a little bit too yellow and it didn't really go
With our whole theme so we switched over to the warm grey which looks more like white which is what we were going for it
in the first place
My dad provided us both the paints in the birch white and the warm gray
So thankfully we didn't have to spend it or waste
You know any money my dad already had the paint so we switched from the yellow to the gray and you're much happier
With it. My parents are currently over at the house D isn't here. He is at work
So I'm gonna head over to the house in a bit and I think today you guys will see this footage little bit later
But today my dad is working on the baseboards and the floors. So things are moving quickly
I'm doing my absolute best to vlog every single thing. So you guys can see the entire
transformation with us
It's a lot of work it definitely is but I knew that this house was going to be a lot of work when I first
saw it and I had said and that this was going to be my
2018
Project. So here we are 2018 and it is a project for the whole family. So
It's a lot of bonding
I'm really happy that I'm able to document this and share it with everyone and
My family that isn't here to actually see it in person can see the progress online
So it's nice
I actually did host my
Godson's birthday party at the house when it was all old before there was any tenants when it was nice and clean
But it was very you know, who dated when I do come to finally visit the house after it's complete
They're gonna be shocked and they're really gonna be shocked because this house was covered in wallpaper
covered in green and pink and blue carpet
Downstairs was brown wood paneling. So it's gonna be a crazy transformation when everyone sees it
After a whole year. So yeah, so that's pretty much it. That's all I really want to tell you guys
I know you guys are really enjoying the vlogs. So I'm glad that you guys are enjoying it and
You can definitely look forward to seeing a lot more. So we will see you guys in the next vlog
