a whole lotta ugly

Words cannot describe the mess...




























I guess it's gotta look a whole lot of ugly before it can look better, right?

    It's not *that* big of a renovation. We did a LOT more in our previous house. However, I need to remember that all changes look really bad before the improvement.
