Congratulation. In my opinion, first home is very important for everyone, which makes people have the sense of belonging. DIY makes the first home more meaning. As for myself, the first DIY thing is a small wallet.

Well.. I love doing most of my work myself.. since a accident, takes me a lot longer to do something.. Since buying this house almost 2 years ago.. I did the bathroom.. I ripped one of the bedrooms walls down, put up a railing, changed the back deck into a sunroom, took the door out that used to come off the deck into the kitchen to the stairs, and put in french doors off the sunroom into the dining room. Not sure if I have pictures of before, but have to take pictures of the work I have done.. Might have the bathoom, will have a look..

Pictures of what the deck used to look like..



Also the bathroom I did..

So the deck is now enclosed, where the window is under the roof of the deck, I put the french doors.. Going to put a pellet stove in that room for next winter. I will need to take pictures of the deck, and dining room to show.

ok, I took pictures of the room I switched from a bedroom to a dining room, and the wall with the railing used be a wall that went right across to the back of the house where the back door used to be to go out on the deck.. Not sure if I am explaining it right.. But here are the pictures I took yesterday.. Where the light switch is near the kitchen, that is where the back door used to be at.







and some of the pictures of the deck I enclosed to a sunroom.. Still needs to be drywalled.. But the last pictures you saw what the deck looked like..



















Now where the heater is in the sun room, I am going to put a pellet stove right there, and vent it out of the ceiling.. That will be done this Spring before I drywall the room.. then I start working in the garage to make a bigger shop, which I will heat with the wood stove I took out the house.
