Hey friends :) Today, I thought I would post some pictures of our house renovation journey thus far. There are some rooms that look exactly the same (maybe even worse, due to junk); however, there are also some major improvements that have been made. Mikey and I bought our flooring on Wednesday night from Lowe's. We had to put a special order in due to the flooring being out of stock. It should be here on Monday or Tuesday! That same night, we bought 6 new bedroom doors for the bathroom, two bedrooms, office, hallway closet, and living room closet. We purchased them from Menard's during a door sale they were promoting, which helped with the costs! Cannot wait to pick them up :)

right: Progress has been made. Works needs done on shutters & maroon wooden rectangles below window.
left: Move-in day. What the living room originally looked like.
right: Progress stage. Living room is 99% finished. Thanks to the starting of the office renovation, junk is scattered throughout the living room. Please excuse :)

right: Progress stage. Once again, the junk is there due to the office renovation. Ugh, need to get rid of the recliner from the 90s and find something new and fresh :)
left: Big "holes" in the wall from the previous home owners.
right: Wall is finished except need to find something to go above the shelf. New living room closet door will replace the current.
left: Original kitchen.
right: PROGRESS. All that has been done so far is painting the cabinets. Lots of work to do in here! Saving this room for last!
left: Original.
right: Original besides a new kitchen table. And again, the junk from the office is flowing into the kitchen.

right: Installed the washer/dryer. Not sure how to "separate" this room from the kitchen.
left: Original hideous hallway & 70s light.
right: Almost finished. Needs some decor!
left: Original bathroom. YUCK. Seriously, disgusting.
right: Progress. Paint needs touched up, molding needs nailed in, and add some decor.
left: Original master bedroom. YUCK!
right: Progress. (Sorry our bed isn't made. Washing bedding at the moment ;)) Need curtains and some wall decor!
left: Original..UGH!
right: Pretty much completed on this side of the room. Need wall decor. Color is Navy Blue.
left: Original Guest Bedroom.
right: Progress. Like I stated before, some rooms look nicer before than they do now ;) This is our new catch-all room :/
left: Original Office.
right: Progress. In the early phases of starting the renovation.
left: Original.
right: Progress. Mikey's mess needs cleaned, then we can begin the joint compound phase and go from there.
Well, this is our tour for now. I decided to skip the backyard since nothing has changed. There has been lots of time and money already invested into our first house, but it's definitely worth it! I love seeing the changes that have already been made!
If you have any suggestions when it comes to organization, wall decor, or whatever...let me know!
Have a wonderful weekend!
