Because of our late night, we ended up sleeping in and didn’t get a start until noon or so.īut that was okay, we were eager to begin and start smashing! We put on all of our safety gear (seriously a must) and grabbed our crowbars. We originally planned to wake up early and get started with demo around 9 am (can’t start too early when you live in a building with other people) and work all day long. That night, we ended up going out with friends and stayed out until the wee hours of the morning. I also removed all of the decor and the hanging mirror over the fireplace. It’s always so nice to just wake up and get right to work instead of spending an hour moving furniture, taping things off, and wrangling all of your supplies.īecause the project is in the middle of our home, I covered our living room furniture with plastic and put paper on the ground to protect it. I highly recommend prepping the day before you start any DIY project. On Friday afternoon, I spent some time prepping the space and getting out all of our supplies. Our plan was to demo and prep for tile on Saturday, and then start tiling on Sunday. That’s definitely the case at the start of this project as we ran into a few issues right from the start… Fireplace Makeover – Demo Dayįinn and I were really excited for demo day on the fireplace. But once we get going, it inevitably takes twice as long. In my mind, it all seems so easy and so doable. And the truth is, I always underestimate how long I think a project will take. Whenever I start a DIY project, I make a general timeline for the project. Today, it’s time for a little more action around here! Last week, I showed you guys the before pics of our fireplace along with our makeover plan.
