Remodeling the Nuclear Room

OK we're in the molding phase!

I got 99% of the moldings up and painted. Well, painted first, then nailed up. What a challenge! That room, this house rather, is so old and warped I'm going to have some creative wood fill work ahead of me. Just need to trim over the "closet" nook area and window frame and sill tomorrow and I can call the room ready to lay carpet!

I shall try for pics once the moldings are all up and finished for you.

Then we go carpet shopping.

We scoped out some shelving. We're going to go with metal shelving with the wire rack stuff. That stuff they do 'custom' closets with. It's a good idea for all the electronic equipment that is going in there along with office supplies. Air circulation and all that good stuff. We thought about wood but it warps. We'll have too much weight on the shelves once we're all done.

Shelving for the walls on each side of the window above the desk most likely will be cheap stuff too. Only because it's easier to take down, putty up and patch if we ever get to sell this place. Still haven't figured out what material I am going to build the desk out of. I'm thinking of a blue stained wood top. It'll match the moldings.
