Best Insulation Ever

4/27/08

Or not so much.
Read on:


When demo'ing the plaster ceiling, I discovered (drum roll please) ADULT DIAPERS used as insulation. Yes, read that again. Adult diapers.
I wasn't that happy about handling them. We couldn't tell if they were used or not. Ew. I know right? I'm going to stop thinking about it now.


Anywho, here are the final demolition photos:


Even though demo is one of my favorite things to do, I'm glad it is over. There is only so much dust 2 lungs can take. Marc's look here about sums it up:

Next up, removing all the nails from everything and doing the new header for the bigger opening to the dining room and that is only the beginning.

  3. Lordy, I hope those diapers were unused....
    Congrats on the great demo job! I'm laughing b/c it actually looks better now, w/ no ceiling and drywall, than it did with the previous owner's cabinets and such.

  4. Your kitchen demo looks so much more interesting than my kitchen demo. Diapers? Ingenious. All I found were plastic bags.
