This is a big one all in itself, considering we didn’t even own a house until February. After our harrowing purchasing experience though, here’s what we have done so far (sorry for the picture heavy post!):
- New carpet throughout
- New paint (inside and outside)
Living room transformation with equestrian theme
- Pressure washed stairs
- Landscaped Front Entry
- New door hardware & accessories
Guest bathroom makeover
- Tiled master bathroom floor
- Removed wallpaper: kitchen, master bath
No more wallpaper!
- New cabinet pulls in kitchen
- New fans and light fixtures throughout
Dining Room with paint and chandelier
- Finished Carolina and State rooms
- Fix fireplace
- And oh yeah, start a blog about our house on the hill 🙂
The Carolina Room
Woowhee! Next year I hope we get through some of this list, that we didn’t get to this year…
Remove jungleThin trees in back yard- Landscape front yard
- Paint cabinets in kitchen
- Granite countertops in kitchen
- Tile floors in kitchen
- Hell, remodel the entire kitchen
- Replace grody couch in living room
- In general drive my husband crazy with new decorating ideas
Loooooooove your equestrian living room! So jealous 🙂
Thanks! It’s given me a fun way to use things I don’t want to get rid of- for instance, the bridle on the wall is my mum’s from the 70’s, and you can’t really see it, but that’s my first saddle sitting against the lamp base in the corner. Makes me happy to see them 🙂
Looks amazing!
We have lived in our house for 3 years and haven’t done much because we can’t afford to fix things, boo!
It’s hard to do everything at once, but I had been saving the equestrian pieces (not hard to do as a rider 😀 ) so most of the interior stuff came down to paint! I definitely understand though, as much as I want to do a lot next year, it will all depend on time and $$$!
If I ever buy a house, I need you to come decorate it 🙂
Yes, please! I love it!
