The Green Room

I am finally getting around to finishing up the third bedroom!  Right now, its serving as an office/craft/misc. room! So I decided to go with something bright and fun:

Before:


After:


The new stencil & desk that O built!!



I do think that the valance is a little too busy to go with the Moroccan wall stencil, so that may be coming down.  The only thing left to do is paint the desk and find a chair (this one is temporary & not comfortable!)

Kitchen Progress

After 10 days, 4 coats of cabinet paint, 2 coats of wall paint, a new dishwasher and staying up until midnight finishing window treatments, the kitchen is moving right along!

Kitchen Before:

After:




HUGE improvement!  I love the white cabinets!  Over time we hope to replace the stove & fridge and put up a white subway tile backsplash.




Since the Living Room and Kitchen are open to each other we added pillows in the same sea glass tone as the kitchen paint color:

I found this cute side table at Home Goods for $75!  I've been looking for a cute little table to go with the chair!



love, Love, LOVE all the changes we've made so far.  Now, I'm ready for a break!

Picture Wall

So we have a huge blank wall that goes down the stairs into the basement.  I thought it would be a great place for a picture collage!

After:
There are still some blank openings, and extra wall space for more pictures down the line!

Laundry Room!

We're making progress in the laundry room!  Here's what we've got so far:

Progress:




We painted the wood cabinets and counter "Elephant Skin", added new hardware & I made a curtain for the tiny little window.  We'd like to get a little bench or something to put next to the door that goes to the garage & still shopping around for a rug.  Now to find a way to cover up the ugly electrical box!

Guest Room....all ready for visitors!!

Guest Room Before:
This room was the previous owner's Nursery.  They added the wainscoting, which looks awesome in our "cottage-y"guest room!




Guest Room After:
Old stuff, new room!  Here is what our guest room looks like in the new house:

The guest room is at the end of the upstairs hallway, and I love looking down the hall and seeing these! 

Now, all we need are some visitors!!!!

Long time, no blog....
