Roughly one year ago, we moved into our dream house.
The
husband has been working tirelessly to update some of the scary parts
and beautify it to our style. I have been decorating, painting and
collecting to help fill our house and make it feel like home.
Here is a glimpse at our work throughout the last 12 months:

Then we did a bit of indoor decorating before we moved outside:

We "prettied-up" the stairs:

When the warm weather hit, the husband and his crew headed out front for a bit of curb appeal.

We ended 2012 with a front porch makeover:

2013 will still be the year of the house. We will continue with a major project in the living room and then move upstairs. The challenges upstairs are far easier than what we have been doing downstairs. The upstairs only needs cosmetic help.
2013 Decorating Goals
- Backyard - New Deck, Bar area, Pergola
- New Built-ins in the living room (current project)
- Ron's office
- The Bedrooms
Let's see if it all happens. Thanks for checking in. :)
