Hanji Progess

The final hanji is on the walls. We will finish the ceiling this week with coffee stained hanji. After that the electrician will come, then the floor guy, and then the kitchen cabinet guy. Hopefully it will be more or less finished by the end of the year.

Progress

After several weeks of peeling and scrubbing old wallpaper off of walls, patching holes, and other sundry tasks, we're finally starting to get things going again.


The bedroom with the walls painted. Hanji (traditional Korean paper) is going on top of the paint.


With the wood stained.


The kitchen stained and almost ready to paint.


The patched ceiling


Ceiling stained with hanji starting to go up.


The next step is to finish the hanji on the ceiling and walls. Then we'll get the electricity hooked back up, the flooring put in, and kitchen cabinets installed. Then it's just a matter of moving in.
