I have been working hard on the house. Garage sale is set for Sept 6-8. Boxing up items to sell and unpacking my stuff has been all consuming. I have taken some time to sew which has helped my stress. I am going to show you some before and after pictures of the rooms I have done. I am just painting and adding my own touches for now. The house needs flooring and windows, but they will come in time. I am pretty proud of the work I have done. I have only owned the home for a month.
First up, I rented the carpet cleaner and cleaned the living room carpet. That same day, I painted the room also. It was a bright green, now it's a cream color called Tea & Honey.
After
They had blinds on the windows and I changed it to curtains. I have to replace the windows so I didn't want to put too much into it.
Next up was the downstairs bathroom. This room has been yellow for most of my life. It was a bright yellow then a light yellow. Now it's gray.
Yellow walls
Now gray
I am very happy with both rooms and it has motivated me to keep going!
The upstairs bathroom has carpeting so my next job is removing that.
This is the peel and stick vinyl flooring I bought for that room:
It's called Ash blended. The walls will be a gray/blue color after I paint.
I am plugging along and doing this a box at a time. I am hoping to have enough rooms completed that I can actually have a house warming party. Windows and siding will come in time.
Hope you are all well.
Blessings
Amy
Looking good!!
