DIY let’s remove a wall! This is one of my favorite projects to date! We had this wall between our kitchen and dining room and we decided to take it down ourselves!! Removing the wall made such a huge difference in these two rooms. It feels so much more airy now! We first removed all the sheet rock. Then we removed the studs. We also had some electrical outlets that had to be moved.. Next we had to install a new a cased opening. We had considered taking the wall flat to the ceiling but I wanted the cased opened between the two spaces. Then we had to fix the floor.. there was a giant hole in the floor where the wall was. We had to pull up all of the flooring in the dining room and add new flooring so it would all be connected.🫠 Then we added the molding around the cased opening and we painted! Then it was done!😍 I love open concept floor plans for a lot of reasons. One reason I love them is because we have kids. It gives them tons of room to run around and play. They even bring their little bikes inside to ride sometimes.🤣 The second reason I love an open concept home is because we have family over often. It just makes sense for entertaining to have it open. We can all mingle and hangout no matter which room you’re in.. If you’re cooking, eating, or sitting on the couch we can all still chat and hangout lol… And the third reason.. I just like the way it looks. I like seeing the dining room table from my kitchen and I also like seeing the natural light come through all the windows.♥️♥️ Wall color : agreeable gray Sherwin Williams Cabinet color: pure white Sherwin Williams Island color: golden oak mixed w/weathered oak #diyremodel #kitchenisland #kitchenupgrade #homeremodel #diyhomeimprovement #homerenovations #budgetrenovations #kitchenreno #diyhomerenovation #kitchenrenovation - @ourwintonhome
