When I bought the house, it also came with an annex with a storage room. The storage room wasn’t finished, just concrete for floor and plywood for walls. No ceiling either for that matter.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Quite bare<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Started with some paint then…
\n<\/p>\n

I reckoned it could be a bit different with just a layer of paint, so that the texture of the wood behind showed through.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Getting there..<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I also got some shelving up, trying to organize everything and fit even more in there.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
This works..<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I have since this picture was taken gotten more shelves there.<\/p>\n

The big problem in this room was the lack of any electricity. So no outlets or lights. It quickly became a problem during the winter months. The other room in here had electricity, and a fuse box, so I took down some of the wall panels and ran wires for a ceiling light, outlets and outside illumination.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Outlets, one in an easy for the back-height.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Ended up with this, a motion sensor to turn on the lights in the ceiling. Plus the other switch for the outside light, which is remotely controlled by my Home Automation software.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here’s the ceiling light, where you can see the next project. Finish the ceiling \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, when the electricity was in orden, I wanted to get the mouldings around the doors done.<\/p>\n

First was the wood that goes from the door frame and into the room, level with the wall plates. Cut them up and smacked them in. Became a big room at the top, but small enough to be hidden behind the moulding.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
I guess it has a name of some sort…<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Stuffed insulation into the crevices and cut the plastic a bit shorter and tucked it in and around the insulation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Ready for mouldings.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

First door and moulding.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
First on<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And done.<\/p>\n

And the last door.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Much better<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Oh yeah, I also tried Kiwi-tiles for the floor. Quite happy with them! Only thing is I think they are a bit too light in the colour, so I will order the rest in dark gray instead. And then put the light gray in the middle of the room, making a “design” out of it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Practical floor.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So that’s all for now, hopefully I will be able to finish the floor and ceiling through the summer.<\/p>\n
