Our house was built in 2005, and we always said we’d finish the basement later…....I would just rather it be more sooner than later; however my wonderful husband is in no hurry and is not that skilled of a carpenter. Not that we really have the money to completely finish it right now anyway, but in all actuality when will we ever have the money?? Right now the basement is used for storage mostly and the clutter is adding up. Ideally, I would like to have a nice family room, bathroom, and possibly another bedroom which we don’t really need so that probably won’t happen. Not to mention all of the pictures and knick knacks I have purchased to put in the basement when it is finished is cluttering up my spare bedroom – maybe that will help me convince my husband to start on this project….oh I doubt it he’ll just tell me to quit buying things!!! I can’t help it sometimes! Someday I hope to be able to put pictures of my finished basement on here!!!
