Some shots of the hallway looking a little bit closer to being finished:
My plans for this area include:
- Stripping the woodwork
- Painting the walls a nice color
- Refinishing the floor
- Restoring the telephone stand and built-in cabinet/drawers

Your hallway is very similiar to ours. I always feel like I’m on a ship in the hallway, because it’s so narrow. It took us a couple years to get ours to the stage it’s at now…
I stumbled upon your blog by chance, but wow! What great progress you guys have made! This hallway is going to be stunning when you’re done. I stripped all of my interior woodwork last winter, and even though it was a tedious, time-consuming project, it was so, so worth it. I can’t wait to see how yours turns out!
