before and after....

I thought I would give you all an update on our new/old house. It's coming together nicely, I must say, and I am SO excited to see my our visions come to life :)

Here are some before pics and some things to note are:

• Wallpaper. Lots of it. Ugh.
• Orange carpet
• Wall sconces with yellow lightbulbs
• The drapery that hadn't been cleaned for probably 40 years. Not kidding.

• The "light pole". Who invented that?! But I think Ross wants to keep it......

Sorry about the fuzzy picture...

This is during the process.....

Taking off that awful wallpaper made our poor walls sad :(

And finally, the after.

This is what was hiding underneath the carpet.
I know they're beautiful! But they'll still be stained :)

And MY favorite part about the house......this door. I love it! LOVE. IT.

So there are just some of the things we've done. And like I've said before, there's still LOTS to do. But we are so excited for it to finally be at a point where we can move in :)

I'll keep you updated on our progress. I've got lots of plans for this house :)
