Last Summer, I decided to refinish our dining room table. If you've been following the blog, then you might remember that I tend to start one project that leads to another. Well, the dining room was no exception. Since we had to take the table out of the room for refinishing, it felt like a good time to paint the whole room. Here is what the dining room looked like when we first moved in. The lighting is a bit dark, but the walls were two different shades of pale...

One of the first changes I couldn't wait to make on our house was our front door color. My mom always told me that your front door should be the focal point of your home and that it should be warm and inviting. Not only is it a great way to make your home more inviting but it's also one of the easiest and budget-friendly ways to give your home a boost in curb appeal. When we first moved in, our front door was painted a burgundy color which wasn't...

The living room in our house is one that we really don't use all that much right now which is why it's the first before & after I'm sharing because it's free of toys and can be easily photographed. :P However, I've found it to be a perfect spot for reading or blogging at night when the kids are in bed.

We are currently spreading gravel around the yard so please excuse the random piles you may see. Right side view. Left side view. Finally, the back view. Please excuse the absurd amount of different color brown chairs. :) We put this deck in last fall (which I will write about in another post) so...

A lot more progress was made in the next two months! Here are some photos of the progress that was made after the first month of construction.  Here are some photos showing the progress after two months. New windows were put in which are one of my favorite features of this house. They are Harvey windows and the window panes are inside the glass which makes them so easy to clean! They also tilt inside the house so I can easily clean the outside glass.   You can see in this image that...

With any flipping of a house, there's going to be some kind of demo. This house got stripped to the bones! Here is the front view after demo. As you can see, they removed the entire roof of the house so we could put a second level to the home.   Front left angle view...
