House: Before & After













































































































































































































After…





































































































































































































































































































































































Lots of pictures today!  I have been promising some before and after shots of the new house. We have been here three months.  Things are coming along nicely.  We have repainted and redone the first floor flooring as well and put in some landscaping.  We are done with big projects for  now.  The dark blue living room we turned into our dining room because it fits our 72" round dining table nicely.  It truly is amazing what paint can do.  I was looking for soft, pretty and calm.  I believe I have achieved that.  I still have lots of pictures to hang and bedrooms to get in order, but I'm taking my time.  I will show you more as I get things done.  Have a great Monday!

xoxo,

  1. Your home is beautiful! Agree with you on the color changes ... like the "softer" you. Landscaping does WONDERS for the appearance of a house and there is nothing like a beautiful garden to sooth the soul, too ;-) Thank you for sharing your home with us ... it's a lovely place. Linda

  9. It all looks wonderful! We have the same doll house! My dad built mine for me when I was a girl and a neighbor gave my hubs the very same plans and he built two for Christmas presents this past year. Everything looks just perfect.
