After taking down the cabinets in the kitchen Jared was in demo mode. We decided, even though we don't have the money in the budget for new floors, to take the wall down between the kitchen and dining room. I mean as long as its clean and sanded whats the big deal with having subfloor showing for a while... months.. maybe a year ;)
This was one of those walls that just didn't make sense. It chopped up the flow of the house and really had no purpose. We aren't very traditional people so not having a eat in kitchen and separate dining room really didn't bother us.
We had a few friends who do contract work come over and help us determine if the wall was load bearing or not. The consensus was- NOT! YAY!!
TAKE THAT SUCKER DOWN!
Note: I realized about a fourth of the way through I was removing wall paper off a wall that we were going to take down! What was I thinking!? Don't do more work than necessary!
My dad came over to help Jared. Zayden loved watching and kept asking to help, so we let him give a couple swings and then help pull the wall board off. :)
SO MUCH BETTER! And so much more light!
