Distraction

Hello everyone!  Sorry for the lack of posts last week.  I was slightly distracted.  We acquired ourselves a little side project. 

It’s a lovely rental house in need of a little TLC.  I love looking a real estate.  It’s one of my favorite time wasters next to Pinterest.  I thought you might like to see the transition of my little side project along the way.  Since I’ve lined up contractors for the biggest part, it won’t take a lifetime to see the results. 

Note:  I did finally finish painting the book shelves last week. 

We actually lost this house to a higher bidder the first go around.  I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it.  It reminded me of my grandparent’s house growing up and the street number is the year I was born.  It was destiny. Don’t most people make huge decisions based on those kinds of facts?!  When I saw that the property was back on the market, I was all over it and this time we got it.

My father and I are replacing the deck this week.  Please pray for patience (for my father).

How do you like those yellow appliances?

Lots and Lots of paneling!

Entry

It’s a split level

Lots of wallpaper and bad lighting.  Check out those hanging ball fixtures!

Since I don’t have a close-up, that’s a beautiful leaf motif on the countertops.

I should be able to show you updated pictures by the end of the week!

Have a great day!
