So I wanted to get a Dinner Bell. I'm not the loudest whistler. And as I was walking around the house, I noticed this bell outside the laundry room/mudroom door. YES! There's my bell!
So here is part of our backyard. We live on 1.5 acres and the backyard is awesome! There was a surprise treehouse in the wooded part and there is a white picket fence. I know cliche but still sweet. I can't wait until next spring to start some landscaping Jimmy wants to cut down that tree in the middle of this picture. And put up a shed in that area.
So here's the back of the house. It needs a lot of work. Can't wait to pressure wash it! There is a brick patio that is just kinda, eh. Ha. Maybe this summer we will put up a deck.
Hey there's my dinner bell! Ha
I'd like to put bar stools and a little bar off that big kitchen window as well.
Now, let's move onto the rest of the house.
So the kitchen cabinets were delivered. We unpacked them all and then realized that they sent us the wrong ones. So that's cool. Now the remodel is taking a lot longer than we had hoped. Not to mention that we had to tear out ALL of the carpet upstairs. The renters, let their two dogs use the entire upstairs to go to the bathroom for 2 years. No joke. You would be AMAZED at all of the stains. Some stains were so big, that the dog had to have peed there over 40 times. It was unbelievable. I really hope I never run into those assholes.
The dining room. The color was called Wet Coral. Ew. Just ew.
This was after we redid the floors.
And this was after we painted it. I would like to do an accent wall with a high gloss stencil. That will be a winter project. I was also thinking of painting the upper part of the ceiling a grey as well, to make it pop. I've seen people do that, and it looks awesome. I'm going to paint the chandelier a different color and see how it looks before buying a different one.
Don't worry. That hideous yellow in the foyer is gone.
The kitchen. The floor was horrible. Very slippery when wet white tile with pretty much black grout. Jimmy & his dad laid down a porcelain tile that looks like wood. Looks great! My mom and I painted the kitchen. The color isn't exactly what I had envisioned, but it will do. I wanted something a little more grey.
Here is what color the spare bedroom was.
It's not a teal.
I was thinking teal with rose gold fixtures. Oh and that spot on the rug up there....yeah that's a burn. The effing renters BURNED the carpet!
The living room. I really liked the color it was. Didn't want to change it. But the walls needed a lot of work from all of the holes from over the years.
These sheers and rods will be going back up.
I picked a color that is very similar and we stained the floors darker.
Ryder's room. Yeah....
Chose the same color as his nursery. I really like it a lot.
His favorite color is yellow and his room colors were grey & yellow so I just painted his closet yellow. I figured it will be blocked by clothes and stuff anyway. And it adds character instead of being plain old white. Plus ALL of the closets needed painted. Those renters are disgusting people.
So that's all the photos I have now. I will try to take more asap. We have done a lot more. Just haven't had time to photograph it.
