Okay I don't know how else to do this but be ready for about a million pictures :)
Our house closed yesterday and I figured well it's now or never to post those before and after pictures of our house. It's crazy to me to think that this time last year I was painting my guts out-- I seriously painted every surface of that house- and it was fun, I really enjoyed making it look better- There was a lot of stuff that we could've done even more to it but it wouldn't have been worth it we would have never seen a reimbursement of that money so I think we did a good amount and I really hope the people who move in really enjoy and love it.
Don't you absolutely love the Mnt. Dew basement-- I'm guessing they just really loved Mt. Dew green :) Dave so wanted to paint a Mnt.Dew Logo on the wall but I said umm no.
Bryn's room actually went though the most paint colors (but didn't it have awesome ronald mcdonald colors at first :))-- first I painted it pink-ugh to bright of a color than light blue turned out to white and finally I just painted it to match the rest of the house when we put it on the market :)
We did do the front landscaping a little bit but alas I never took a pic-- ya sometimes I get lazy :)
And that is the tour of a yr of my life :)
Boy did you guys do a lot of work here. I have to say all your blood and guts paid off...your home is very pretty!~ I have a before and after party coming up this Wed....hope you can join us. SHOW it off!
ReplyDeleteMan I am tired just looking at all this beautiful work! I am envious of your skills, stamina and drive. I need a nap now!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on closing!
ReplyDeleteWOW, it's amazing the difference paint can make. Yuu did a fabulous job!
Wow! Looks great! Your blog inspires me! What color tan did you use throughout the house. It has just the right contrast with the white without being too dark or too light. We painted a tan in our kitchen but I think it's a little on the light side.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on closing on your home. I look forward to seeing your next projects at your future home!
Wow, you did a lot of work there! The after pictures are beautiful, especially compared to the before! Can't wait to see what you do to your next place.
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing transformation a little bit of paint can make. In you master bath, did you replace the vanity or just paint the wood?
ReplyDeleteshow off! you do know it looks a million times better. Except for the mountain Dew basement. Seriously that would have been my dream room...if only I could get a dance pole in there...I kid, I kid...You guys did a terrific job!
ReplyDeleteLooks so great! Our house is now officially on the market. We are praying to have a happy blog post announcing a closing too.
ReplyDeleteIt's so much work! No wonder not everyone stages their house. Online articles make it sound so easy to just "add a fresh coat of neutral paint" but it's not so easy to get a project finished before someone needs their bum wiped or proclaims they are starving. And it's not so easy to keep the toddler from stepping in the paint tray... they don't mention all that.
Anyway, we sure hope you LOVE your new home as much as I'm sure your buyers LOVE theirs.

ReplyDeleteI'm late piping in here, but I think the transformation on your house is just amazing. You should be so pleased with all that you did! I am obsessed with your kitchen makeover, it gave me some ideas for my little renovation I have planned. Thanks for sharing and inspiring with your blog!
ReplyDeleteI must know, what colors did you use on your rooms? They are great colors, Can you please post the colors I would love to use those colors in my house.
