We have our Bedroom!!!

After 5 months we are finally sleeping in our room. There are still a couple of things we need to finish. The crown molding, and the ceiling light are the last things in the room. We need to finish the crown molding in the living room and hall. Then our closet is the next project.

It is small. The lighting changed the wall color in this shot.

Our only themed room...
The London Bathroom

The large clock is definitely a statement in this tiny bathroom and I love it!

Tube map shower curtain and wainscoting.

No more towel folding just hang it.

Mason Jar Pot Pie

Time to Start on the Garden

So now that the house is basically done. I am not sure if a home is ever really complete but for now no major projects inside. I decided to start on the front yard. It is lacking in curb appeal... So I used the broken pieces of concrete chimney/vent to create a tiered flower bed. I guess I am going for an English garden feel. Sticking to purples, whites, reds, and some pinks, for color. I did get a couple of ferns. I also planted Shane's silly fern he rescued from the gutter from our last rental. Pretty...

Decideing on paint is not that easy

We are getting closer. I think this is the final choices for all rooms but our bedroom. We are trying to bring color into the home but have a nice flow to everything. I think the goal is to keep permanent things neutral and change the art and accessories. The kitchen will have stainless appliances and butcher block counters with slate back splash.
