Our basement project is officially finished! And while we are still tweaking, adding, and will be getting used to living in our basement, I wanted to share some pictures of the final finished project!

We were so happy with how it turned out. Both Nathan and I have said that it’s exceeded our expectations, and it feels like a warm cozy place that we can really live in and enjoy as a family. Mission accomplished!

You may remember my mood board for the basement…

Here’s a look at what it looked like before with our basement renovation ‘lite’

The sports room….which is still the sports room and the only space we didn’t do anything to in this renovation.

And here’s a look at the new basement now…

Looking from the stairs down the hallway to the new “bedroom”/playroom…

Looooove finally having a bathroom down here. Especially for the kids.

The new playroom/bedroom…

And the entertainment room area…

Literally every last person who worked on this project thought Nathan was crazy to leave this “window” area open to the sports room. But it may be the best feature of all. The boys can play in the sports room, and the adults can hang out in the entertainment room and we can actually see through to what’s happening in there without balls flying out of the sports room.

It’s truly genius for this stage in our lives.

Here’s a look from the sports room into the entertainment room…

We absolutely love, love, love this basement now. It makes such a huge difference to have a place to play that is comfortable for the kids AND the adults.

I’m going to work on a separate post with sources of everything, cost, and all of those fun details! For now, it’s just pictures!

I’m also doing one of my very favorite things today…

Praying over our Christmas cards. One big cup of coffee and a stack of cards to pray over.
