This is the staircase down to the basement. Pretty groovy, huh? Definitely needs a disco ball at the bottom of the stairs. We're actually going to keep this wallpaper on the walls.
Unfortunately, we ended up covering up this wallpaper with dry wall. While I fought to keep it, in the end, we felt it was best to take a more conservative approach.
This is the Money Pit (aka My House) blog area of Stephen Clark's website. Its coming to you live from New Jersey USA. In 2004 we purchased a house that was the epitome of a fixer-upper. As we progress in upgrading and renovating our house, which was built in 1971 but apparently had not been taken care of since the late 1980's, we will post photos and share our successes, challenges, and pitfalls along the way.
You are looking at the Swingin' Basement post page, which was posted on January 01, 2005.
