First we had to pack up the entire contents of the room (you can imagine that after almost 6 years untouched, there was quite a lot). Then we removed the built-in cabinets put in by the previous homeowners. Also removed the waterbed base that our mattress has been on for the last 9 years! Next painting the walls (no pictures...what were we thinking?!!). Next we removed the old carpet and installed a birch colored laminate floor from our good friend Ikea.
After new baseboards, we put together our Ikea Magiker cabinets that we bought a couple of years ago when we discovered they were being discontinued! Aaaargh! We're sure glad to have them out of the garage at last. Jakob was a good helper at this stage, whereas Anna prefered to just jump on our mattress which was out in the front room.
And the final "Ikea showroom" look.
Now we just need to move our stuff back in...
