Renovations in a Home Depot world

Since our daughter is due at the end of November, we’ve had to refocus our efforts on getting the master bedroom livable again.  This has involved getting rid of some fairly massive furniture, and a poorly thought-out closet.  It’s been pretty easy going, since the previous owner didn’t have any concept of “building codes” or “best practices”.  He just knocked the thing up as a frame with no studs in between the edges, and joint-taped it all to the wall.

It’s a bit hard to see there, but there is a strip of red carpet along the back of the former closet.  I don’t know why they would have bothered with this 2-tone disaster of carpet laying, but hey, there are lots of decisions made in this house before we lived here that I can’t understand.  In any case, all the carpet is coming up today.
