bargeron barn | doors.

As of the day before we left for our recent (epic) two-week vacation, the barn is officially closed in! Our goal was to get to this point before we left our house vacant for so long, and we were puuuumped when we actually pulled it off. We used the same material for the barn doors as we did the ceiling because we loved the look of the panels, and we looooove how they turned out.

Side note: my man can BUILD things, y'all! He's such a freaking HUNK!

Okay, I just had to get that out publicly, because he has been suuuuuch a force in working to finish this project. This has been his baby since March, and I'm so proud of the ways that he has learned new skills and not given up until he's mastered them. He's quite the perfectionist (which is sometimes frustrating and others times amazing, LOL), and it has definitely paid off for us this time. I'm proud of him, and the best part -- he's proud of himself, even if he doesn't admit it.

I love catching him in action.

And here is the fun part -- the big reveal!

Be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom to see a few before and after shots. The transformation is amazing and so, so beautiful!

Isn't she beautiful?! We are sooooo in love!

Here are a few fun before and afters, just so we never forget the humble beginning that this building had.

We went from three open bays and a shop room to three enclosed rooms that each have a unique purpose.

Tool Room / Man Cave

Before: three open bays
After: two distinct rooms with doors.

At this point in the process, we only have finishing touches left to go. And aren't those the most tedious part of the process? LOL. The lights have been purchased, we just have to install them. The outlets have been wired, we just have to get the breakers situated and get the power turned back on. We need molding for the floors and ceilings. You know, little things like that that add up to one big thing. The hardest parts are over, and now we just have to finish this beauty and start enjoying her!

It's crazy that I only have one more post to share about this, but it's true -- the next time you see an update, it will be the finished product. EEEEK!! Here's to hoping that it happens sooner rather than later. Like I said, we are soooooo close!

This sure has been fun.

Who would've ever dreamed that we could have pulled something like this off without killing each other or financing our dream. I love living inside every day miracles!
