GROWING SEEDS: "Parlow Renovation"

Guess Whose Getting A Make-Over?

That would be our very own Church Parlor.......also known as the Brides Room, Family Room and Classroom located next to the Crossroads Coffee Bar.

After 30 years of little to no changes made to it, the Crafty Ladies are heading up this project by hiring Mt. Pleasant building contractor, Charles Thomas, who has experience in church renovations, to complete the work.  They will be funding 100% of  the renovation of the room from their annual Bazaar Fund for a total of $17,995.  The first stage of this makeover will be the renovation of the room itself and should be complete within two weeks from start of construction with the second stage consisting of the new furnishings.

The Parlor Renovation Project was approved by the Finance Committee at their January 14, 2013 meeting after receiving prior approval from the Trustee Committee.  

Some of the makeover changes you will be seeing are:

* New french door entrance to Parlor from hall.

* Custom wood cabinetry on back wall to include a garment cabinet, granite countertops, mirror and recessed lights.

* Crown molding throughout room.

* Removal of popcorn ceiling with new texturing and repainting as well as new recessed lights.

* New carpet throughout

* Painting of all walls and trim in calming neutral colors

We will also be incorporating some of the old with the new.....The three Dean Teague paintings and large gold mirror that currently occupy the Parlor will continue to earn a place on the walls.

Be sure and thank the Crafty Ladies Committee Members, Becky Cook, Becky Arterbury, Jean Ann Marshall and Nikki Armstrong for overseeing this wonderful project that will benefit the entire church for many years to come.
