Improvements

My family has been working on finishing our basement for some time now. All the walls are painted and the carpet's in. We're just finishing the fireplace, which I must say is pretty cool. It's lined with rock strips, but instead of them going horizontal, we put them vertical. Just to be different. At first I was kind of skeptical about what it would look like, but I figured my mom knew what she was talking about. And now that it's almost done, I really like it. It's exactly what we planned it to be, different. Once the fire place is done we can put the tile in and finish up the bar. The tile is actually made of cement, but I swear you can't even tell. It's a new company that does this kind of flooring. And it's way cheaper to do the floors then regular tile. Plus you can make it as personalized as you want. You just have to pick a pattern, and they'll come lay it out for you. To get the color they just stamp it on, and they have you there when they do it so you can make it the exact way you want it. It's a really neat concept. So, hopefully our basement will be done soon and we can FINALLY get all this dust out of our house..
