So I felt motivated to paint and get it all organized. I painted it green so I may use the rest of the gallon somewhere else in the house since I really like the color. Then I installed a light system and hung a shelf unit. Ryan had installed the cat door a few weeks ago. More on that in a moment. Here are some pictures of the project:

Above are pictures of the lighting system I put in. They are really for under-mount cabinet lights but they have a little switch and plug in so obviously super easy then. They are hidden behind the wall so you don't really focus on the fact that there is a cord and I linked two of the lights together so it's a good amount of light into the small room now.
I painted the room a pretty green as I mentioned but my cell phone pictures don't really do it justice.
And then the final look after I put the decor and shelf in:

Our new coat closet turned mudroom room. It's probably not much of an actual mudroom but it's still a great place to hang your coat purse and take your shoes off :) |
So the story with the cat door. You can see it in the above pic but our goal is to get the cats to go through this door so they can right into a cabinet in the garage where their liter is. It's all up and ready for use BUT the cats are afraid to actually go through the door. SO they haven't used the liter out there yet. We keep trying to get them to go through the door but nothing yet. Hopefully soon as it will be super nice to have the liter in the garage.
Here is a picture of the cabinet from the garage side of things. If they just walk through the cat door they would end up in this cabinet to use their liter (so they aren't really roaming the garage free at all). I'm hoping it will work as we begin to train them. Scooter will be the hardest to train.
