Craft Room Built-In Shelves!

My wonderful wonderful hubby just finished my craft shelves this weekend!! I love love love them:) Here is a picture of the empty space before...

 

My new shelves...

 

This gives you an idea of how big they are with Sammy standing by them!

 

A little while later.....lots of craft stuff loaded up:) I will probably be making a curtain to cover them up when I am not busy crafting, but for now I love them just like this:)

 

Chair Makeover!

Here is our Chair re-cover project we are currently working on. I thought I would give you a little hint of what the set will look like. The before chair, as you can see, is the dirty creamy velvet covered one. The red/cream fabric on our new chair comes from our curtains that will be put in the same room. I am also in the process of picking colors for the walls in this family/dining room. Cream walls with an accent red fireplace wall. I'll keep you posted...

 

 

 

One Chair down, 5 more to go! I will post step by step pictures of the way we went about covering our chairs once I get another one done!

Blinds

One of the first things we had to do was buy and hang our blinds. This took a little longer for us because we wanted nice blinds, a good deal, and we hung them ourselves. We eventually went with blinds from different places and all the windows seen from the front of the house are white, and the back are brown. Here are the blinds in the family/dining room after we hung the blinds...

 

Here is before...

 

The formal living and dining before (Yes the small windows are missing blinds, we had to special order them because they were so small, they are up now)

 

This was the room before..

 

Welcome to Our Home...

My husband Tyler and I found and bought our beautiful home in May 2009. And in June we were happy to call this place home. Being that this is our first home and a new home at that, we are sure to have many adventures cleaning, painting, organizing, decorating, and finishing different areas of our house. So we thought we would share our journey with you! We work on the house on a regular basis, we have so many projects on our to-do list, and we have lots of new ideas floating around in our heads. We have big plans for this place and we look forward to sharing them with you:)
