WE have a golden color on the wall. Sorry for the crooked pillows. This was our first night at the house...I was tired. Love our side table aka dining room chair LOL?

Bathroom, our first night. We still haven't changed the window in here, haven't added the heat radiator or the towel and TP holders...in time
image
Another view of the bathroom. The night we installed our recessed medicine cabinet. Still a teeny, weeny bathroom but it has already grown on me.
 
Picsto give you a laugh:

Yeah we only changed the padlock, it still looks a foreclosed home to me. We decided we will change the doors/locks when the kitchen is up (no more sheet rock and other materials going through)

Re: a few 'before' and 'during' house pics

  • Nice! Looks like you guys are doing a lot! But it'll soon be your perfect home!

    My parents house had panelling when they first bought it and my mom promptly ripped it off. Blech... Sad

  • It's coming along girlie! In time it will be exactly what you want, but so far so good. Keep up the good work! =)

  • OMG at that paneling.  So far looks good.  You'll get there, eventually.
  • LMAO at the paneling in the bedroom and the weeds!!  I can't wait to see more pics. It looks like everything's coming along nicely.

  • Yeah, thanks for the words of encouragement. It's so far our sweat into this house since we can't seem to get a contractor that the bank approves. So we are doing the rooms that matter most to us until then. We still need to get new windows for the rest of the house, carpets for the bedrooms and lights for the 3 bedrooms...then I need to rip out the linoleum on the floor of the 2 smaller bedrooms...and then we'll be done with upstairs. Gosh! We definitely will be needing a vacation after this.

  • LOL You'll be needing a LONG vacation after this. It's a lot of work, but well worth it! =)

  • Ooh, you guys are doing a really nice job. That paneling was hideous, but I totally like the way your bathroom is looking.
  • Get a landscaper!!  Just to get through the initial forest!  I know guys like to "do things themselves" (my hubby would die if I called in professionals!) but those weeds are intense! 

    I can't wait to see what the "after" pics will look like!
