Our House

It is about time we share some "after" pictures of our home.  We have put a lot of time and love into all of our projects and are very proud of our work.  However, we are nowhere near done.  Our to-do list is still a few miles long. So with that in mind, I present you with the first set of house pictures!

What use to be a useless space is now our dining room.  We installed a new window treatment and gave the whole space (the whole house for that matter) a fresh coat of paint.  We also painted some subtle vertical stripes on the wall behind our dining table.

The previous owners used this space as their dining room.  What a waste!  Isn't our family room lovely.  We added a some neutral paint and installed a new fan/light fixture.

Our sun room got a fresh coat of paint and we also hung a large Ikea mirror over the fireplace (similar to the one the previous owners had).

After a nice coat of neutral paint the hall looks much brighter and bigger.  We also hung a picture collage and a quilt my grandmother hand-sewed for us.

What do you think?  Is our hard work paying off?  Next time around we'll show off our kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms.  We know you're excited.
