Ever since I learned how to spell that word I love typing it.
-anyway-
The reasons for my hallelujah! After TWO months, I can finally post photos directly into my blog posts again (which means you can also click on them to enlarge).
-sweet-
So today I will bring you even more paint photos. I love going home at night and actually seeing the change. It's huge. Someday I'll share the before photos in hopes that the old owners run across my blog. Bright blue. Murder red. It was fugly. Still some work to do (the painters are there all week), but you get the point.
K, so here's the family room (like my decorating style? I call it ode to la pig pen):
The wall to the right of this photo has one big gigantic built-in. Here's the other end of the room:
The foyer (formerly blood red)...Need to get a new light fixture:
Another shot of the dining room (getting a new fixture for here too):
Guest room (doesn't this make you want to come visit?) Need a new fixture here too:
Last, but certainly not least, the scrapbook room:
XOXO
