Well where have I been?? We’ve been getting this house ready to sell! We’ve decided that a little more storage and a lot more yard would be really nice. Sooo, if you are one of the people I’ve been neglecting – hopefully you can find a bit of comfort in the pics of our “ready for the market” house! A couple overall comments… Since we have lived here we have painted every wall/ceiling and changed out every bathroom faucet and light fixture. We also changed the majority of the light switch plates to ceramic. AND brand new carpet that is only a week old!

Enjoy!

Here are a couple outside pics for you.

We added new shutters in the front.

I needed some color in the back so I planted a couple pots. I used these for herbs and veggies this summer – but they had pretty much lived their lives so I thought some mums were in order

This area was an old sandbox from the previous owners. We originally were going to pay someone to haul away the wood and level the ground so we could plant grass. Then we decided a few bags of mulch would be just as nice

Living Room
This used to be the living room then it became the toy room and now we are back to living room! Yay!

Dining Room
We removed two pieces of furniture from this room to open it up a bit. A big wooden cd rack and walnut plant stand. The chandelier was one of the first purchases we made when we got our dining room set years ago.

Half Bathroom
We removed all the “clutter” and bought a lovely rowboat picture. I also painted the corner shelves white to match the new frame. New vinyl tile floor in here!

Kitchen
We removed all of the "country". I bought a new piece of art and then made new curtains to match. I really love the decluttered look of it all! I also put in a new vinyl tile floor. A few years ago Jamey added under cabinet lighting and added a light to the pantry. We also changed all of the light fixtures in this room.

Family Room
This room had the biggest transformation in my opinion. We removed tons of furniture including a 55 gallon salt water aquarium. We rotated the furniture that was left. Jamey rewired our surround sound to work from a different corner of the room. I LOVE this room now!!!! It feels so open and comfy!

Hall Bathroom
This room didn’t change much. I did add the new vinyl floor – but that is about it. All of the changes made in this room occurred not long after we purchased the house.

Abby’s Room
We didn’t change her room at all.

Hannah’s Room
We removed a tall mirror and a small table from this room.

Master Bedroom
We removed my hope chest and lots of clutter I gave this room a fresh coat of paint this weekend.

Master Bath
No changes here. Just the new floor.

The basement and bathroom are almost finished. I’ll add those pics as soon as I can. We are hoping to have our house up a week from tuesday! Wish us luck!!
