Last week we took a look at our most recent renovation project at The Alpha House of Tampa. The challenge was to completely refurbish the three-bedroom apartment deemed as their semi-independent quarters for teen moms. Cynthia Keenan and I wanted to make the apartment both warm and relaxing, comforting and cheerful...a place the girls and their babies would feel is theirs and a space that makes them happy.
Let's take one more quick look at the space before renovations.
Now, here's the finished space! Notice new flooring, paint, lighting, fans, furniture, cabinets...nothing left untouched!
Entry and living area:
Kitchen:
Bathroom:
Bedroom 1: (In this room we walled in two doors, and added a new closet!)
Bedroom 2:
Bedroom 3: (This is the smallest room, which made it challenging. A loft style bed was chosen with drawer-storage and a pull out desk.)
Some details I am especially fond of:
 |
| Stained-glass, pencil cut back splash tile. Looks terrific with the granite! |
 |
| LOVE these chairs! |
 |
| These cubes from Target were the perfect colors and size to fit under the console table for extra seating. |
 |
| Batik print wall art. |
 |
| Three separate shampoo/soap niches in the shower. No fighting! |
 |
Fun piece of art in the kitchen looks hand-painted.

The list of people who donated time, materials and labor for this project is too long to detail here. But as I think you can see, it took a total team effort to put this together, and all in only five weeks time! We hope the residents at The Alpha House of Tampa will enjoy this space for years to come...and I hope you enjoyed seeing the project!
The kitchen looks great. I love the booth.
