First off, this is going to be a ridiculously long post filled with pictures. Sorry about that, but hopefully at the end you'll feel like you got the full tour! I realized last week that our style after 5 baby years of marriage is still evolving and thankfully these rental houses give me a chance to try ideas out, and if it's not the greatest, well I can try again in 3 years. That's the fun part of moving for me, a new place, a new space, another chance to try again. So here is what we've done to this house, we still need to work on the master, it's a hot mess but other than that we are done!

BEFORE:

AFTER:
Laundry Closet you can read more about this revamp here

Living Room. Look at those floors!!!! Eeeeek! Bill and some very awesome Marines did this for me! I owe them a fancy shmancy man dinner!

We had to figure out a way to incorporate my sewing/crafting table into this space. It was a little tricky but I'm pleased with the outcome. 

Looking down the hallway to the bedrooms

Turning the other direction and looking down the hallway to the kitchen. Don't you love the wall track? Excellent decor choice ;)

Dining Room! I'm so loving the new flooring!

Master not finished! The plan: Neutral bedding, Annie Sloan Chalk Paint on all furniture, new curtains and a reclaimed wood headboard. Lots to do in here!


Master Bath, so tiny!

Boys Room




So there you have it! It's been a very busy 6 months but there is a tiny light at the end of the tunnel and once the master bedroom is done I'm putting my feet up and calling it finished for this house! I'm sure Bill is writing up a binding contract at this moment ;)

Pssst....the giveaway....

  2. Everything looks wonderful!!!! Oh and where is that hutch from that is in your dining room? We have been on the hunt for over a year and that is the closest thing I've seen to what we're looking for :)

  5. Thanks for the sweet comments y'all! Come for a visit anytime!

    Steph, the hutch in the dining room is from IKEA. In fact all the furniture in that wood color is from the same line there, Leksvik. :)
