She registered with Schmidt Homes Remodeling at their kitchen display, located at Rooms by Tagg 2, during last summer’s Girls Night Out event!  Chris Campbell has a daughter currently attending St. Olaf (graduating in 2013).

 

As a Certified Wellborn Cabinetry, Inc. dealer and installer, Schmidt Homes Remodeling, Inc. extended the opportunity to win the Dream Kitchen Makeover by registering at our showroom or at our Kitchen Display in downtown Northfield.  Chris was in town to hear her daughter’s St. Olaf choir performance and entered many different drawings that night.  The Dream Kitchen Makeover contest ended in September, and Chris was notified that she was the winner!

 

Chris Campbell decided that her brother Mike and sister-in-law Deb were in greater need of a kitchen remodel than herself and generously decided to pass on the winnings! Schmidt Homes Remodeling, Inc. has designed the kitchen remodel and presented the plans to both Chris and Deb this weekend.  Both are so excited for the change!  A sweet note: Deb and her husband cook together regularly (she says it has really brought them closer over the years), so having increased counter space and more functional cabinetry will greatly increase the joy they share while cooking.

 

We have just wrapped up another Wellborn Cabinetry Inc. Dream Kitchen Makeover drawing in February, and we hope the newest lucky winner will have registered with Schmidt Homes Remodeling Inc. as well!

The Archer House is coming along nicely.  The walls are framed and insulated, plumbing in place, soundproofing and drywall installed!  Here are a few shots:

The new home we are building has floor joists in place!  See the progress:

Hi Bob!

Progress is happening up there on the fourth floor of the Archer House.  This is just a little photo update from our past post.  Be sure to look at the work we have previously done on the other levels of the building either in person at the hotel or here on our website in our “Before & After” section.  Thanks for checking in!  More updates will follow.

We are very excited to be a part of the Archer House’s 4th floor remodel!  What was once an attic used only for storage will now become three additional guest rooms, one of those will be a king size suite with bedroom, dining room, living room and kitchenette.  The suites will have the option of being reserved separately or together as one large three-bedroom suite.  Ideal for weddings, extended-stays, or family travel!

These are the before photos.  More to come as the work progresses.
