Deck to Closet

This is the deck -- well, it once was a deck. Actually, it was a deck last week, but now it is being transformed into a closet. The closet/deck received a plywood floor, and is currently getting sheetrock mud on the new walls. It is quite the process I tell you! Add a layer, let it dry, and then sand it down the next day. Repeat. Multiple times more. Repeat.

Anyway, Mr. Fixit closed off this mini deck and replaced it with a closet instead. The closet will be for the master bedroom, which right now, is in an open room where the pool table used to hang out. Don't worry - the pool table is now in the basement. It is carefully holding all the wedding gifts that can not be filed away yet, due to the various construction projects.

Back to the closet! The closet is being constructed for several reasons. The first -- we need a closet for the bedroom. Second -- bats were taking up residence in the exposed rafters, and we decided that even though bats may be an interesting talking point, we really did not want them sharing our house. So, their little rafter roosting place has been closed for business. I am currently brainstorming how my clothes will fit into the new closet space - and I think they will like their new location quite nicely!
