Dear Chicago House,
Well I thought it was about time I shared with you the de-browning of your basement. Do you remember what you looked liked a few months back?
Nasty is putting it nicely. Your heavy wooden paneling was quite horrid and to be honest I never wanted to descend you stairs.
Now after many hours labor and more coats of paint than I ever thought possible you look like this.
AHHHH isn't that so much better, I rather like descending to your depths now to be beaten at pool again on a retro 70's pool table that was left behind by your previous owners.
I have not done much to style you yet, you are a blank canvas waiting for embellishments but they will come and then I will share some more photos with you.
Love from
