About Me

We got married October 23, 2010 and our sweet baby boy was born July 2, 2012. We have been remodeling our "new" home since January 2010 and I have documented the entire process, and will continue to do so.

Laundry Room

Last night Craig finished the new joints in the brick in the laundry room, and we ended up priming and finishing the first coat of paint. Not sure if I like it yet, I was wanting something a little darker, but this will have to do for now. It might grow on me once the trim, floor, and decorating are all finished.

Here is the before picture of the laundry room:021 (3)

Here is what it looked like after tearing all of the paneling out, with  drywall up, and in the process of making the brick on the back wall pretty (there were two coats of interior paint and one coat of exterior paint from way back in the day):

Here is what the brick looks like now after Craig finished the grinding and putting in new mortar! Looks awesome! :

Now this is what the room looks like after the first coat of paint, like I said, I don’t know if I like it yet but I’m going with it. Only thing that will be different in the “finished product” is a shelving unit over the boarded up window on the back wall, white trim throughout, grey epoxy paint on the floor, new washer and dryer hooked up (hookup is on the right of the photo below), and new light fixtures. I eventually want to paint the back door (and the front door..) but maybe I will call the Gregson’s for that, I am about sick of painting!

Well, that is all for now. Tonight we’re painting the final coat of “Boston Fern” green in the middle room. Apparently two coats wasn’t enough, and I also need to paint around the new archway that leads into the kitchen. Our weekend project: KITCHEN FLOOR TILE!!! Also on my weekend to do list, a TON of wedding projects. We are only 3.5 weeks out! Mom and I met with our decorator yesterday and changed things once again, now I have an even bigger to-do list of projects before the wedding! So much to do yet, but it is hard to believe in this short time that it is going to be over :(.
