We finally finished the main bedroom. Now we haven’t done all the work since we posted about Bedroom 3, we were working on them concurrently. This main bedroom was a big one though. We had to remove all the walls and gyprock so that was an interesting project for Brett. I must admit that smashing the walls and cupboard out was kinda fun, but I was having so much fun I forgot to get any footage or even many photos. Video is here and details are below the video. Definitely glad to have that one out of the way but still have a lot more to do.
