One Year Later...

Well, one year and one day ago we moved into this home. (And yes, I was planning on posting this yesterday which would have been exactly one year ago but things don't always go according to plan when you have little girls, so this is a day late - sorry!)<br /><br />After living in our <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/p/our-house.html">townhouse</a> for five years we were quite excited to be moving to a house with a yard for the girls. We knew it was going to take a good bit of cosmetic work to get the house updated and feeling a bit more our style but we didn't mind that seeing we didn't need to move any walls and the house was well built and we loved the flow of it and LOVED the location! And we have loved this new house, I haven't loved all the hours I have spent painting it, haha, but we have loved raising our girls here this last year and have already had so many wonderful memories here. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_oTClQ8ffCPqQtSK9N43dUK5_yRcz3hPY1YGQqXx1RDr_ehZwbdT1ysAiX8bmQ6DyPPpQzkcmIUMhcZQGOAGE0zgU47NNhAqdBs14uvL5nkcn66H6SGxllKIpeQwHTwprXAWSI9AZmnZY/s1600/n_collageoneyear_TEXT.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_oTClQ8ffCPqQtSK9N43dUK5_yRcz3hPY1YGQqXx1RDr_ehZwbdT1ysAiX8bmQ6DyPPpQzkcmIUMhcZQGOAGE0zgU47NNhAqdBs14uvL5nkcn66H6SGxllKIpeQwHTwprXAWSI9AZmnZY/s1600/n_collageoneyear_TEXT.jpg" /></a></div><br />First up is our dining room. We haven't put a ton of work into this room. We pretty much just painted the trim and then the walls and added the beadboard wallpaper to the lower half of the chair rail. Then we added in some furniture and changed out the chandelier (that was a bit of an adventure) and we eventually ended up using the chandelier from the before picture up in the girls playroom. Although we painted it bright pink before we hung it up there. =)<br /><br />I am still on the hunt for wallpaper for this room. I actually just ordered a bunch of samples last night so am hoping one of those will work. I have tried quite a few samples so far but am just a bit unsure of what I was to do and haven't loved any of them yet. Then I'd like to go with a different table (I built this one for our townhouse and never really intended for it to go in here) and then will probably move this one outside. I may try to build one or I may just continue keeping my eye out for one. I also am on the hunt for a hutch for the wall you can't see in these photos. Right now it's bare. I pretty much check Craigslist and our consignment shops pretty regularly but so far haven't found what I have in my head. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3js0C0lCVRr-bqsAZh98ryIB8rn9q9RYZkfeXvGGcp-FNBabSOc0-T_glqdfwGmbpEZvbgyfw6Szk26CZypTg9NxeX2GazO_TKCprc4oTJoSG1ZY0z7CWOUQhH2xs20RtNuNmngNpkpQ/s1600/wdining2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3js0C0lCVRr-bqsAZh98ryIB8rn9q9RYZkfeXvGGcp-FNBabSOc0-T_glqdfwGmbpEZvbgyfw6Szk26CZypTg9NxeX2GazO_TKCprc4oTJoSG1ZY0z7CWOUQhH2xs20RtNuNmngNpkpQ/s1600/wdining2.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgslM1FSAmOtPeespWwA2xE7hu2RoFkqrBHM84RzTK3-T7Coj39xvTi3dSEV-xzxDpFqEplSEVhdRcw17wM_-SPjlnwkDXpjm0-eO-rSduXbcvXo2br9nisQPaDoBn4PZu5YGN-cBbAyew/s1600/wdining1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgslM1FSAmOtPeespWwA2xE7hu2RoFkqrBHM84RzTK3-T7Coj39xvTi3dSEV-xzxDpFqEplSEVhdRcw17wM_-SPjlnwkDXpjm0-eO-rSduXbcvXo2br9nisQPaDoBn4PZu5YGN-cBbAyew/s1600/wdining1.jpg" /></a></div>Full source list for the items shown here in our dining room can be found <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/02/updated-dining-room.html">here</a> and you can find all dining room related posts <a href="http://www.dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/search/label/dining%20room">here</a>.  <br /><br />And here are the updates we've done in the den/study. This room required the least amount of work so far seeing how we have decided to keep the dark woodwork as is in here. I painted the walls a creamy color (they were a pale peach) and then just did some basic decorating in here using pretty much all things we already owned. I haven't put any effort really into this room yet but I am hoping to in August. I've got a couple of small projects ahead of it on my list (like making over our pantry and linen closet) and then I am hoping to tackle this. Even though I often ponder painting the woodwork I think we will keep it dark and try to make this more of a masculine looking room for Jon seeing how the rest of the house gets kind of taken over by us girls. I've been thinking about incorporating old family sports photos and some of Jon's basketball things. I don't want it to have a literal theme but just kind of a subtle feel. Or I may not do that at all, I'm not really sure. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRCOQd9WrArlKtN7da0QfscE6ddHF_9bK3ucqvUE55Vct3DmXP0P8GVk4wbhfC0HTBKaXnlOmlwPAcQX-blDDp2IeZzejpx6od6hcbnZIFKro7nn33muE6r2a2SG1T146wispLPLwWCNk/s1600/cDSC_3270.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRCOQd9WrArlKtN7da0QfscE6ddHF_9bK3ucqvUE55Vct3DmXP0P8GVk4wbhfC0HTBKaXnlOmlwPAcQX-blDDp2IeZzejpx6od6hcbnZIFKro7nn33muE6r2a2SG1T146wispLPLwWCNk/s1600/cDSC_3270.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9QSiwHslO932zYNDsdl3qmk_lOdMV7daVxYSxGy0QlBWkHxrTVJrO1EKjhFWD1soHKjvLkGt0ZtusejiITXlVmeDiXorwO6FuzpF5oz6_0V9i3G5PuG1tYDC5qmArJ39aqsJw2Kk5lL8/s1600/cDSC_3284.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9QSiwHslO932zYNDsdl3qmk_lOdMV7daVxYSxGy0QlBWkHxrTVJrO1EKjhFWD1soHKjvLkGt0ZtusejiITXlVmeDiXorwO6FuzpF5oz6_0V9i3G5PuG1tYDC5qmArJ39aqsJw2Kk5lL8/s1600/cDSC_3284.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Full source list for the den can be found <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/01/january-in-our-den.html">here</a> and all den related posts can be found <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/search/label/study">here</a>.<br /><br />The room we've probably done the most work in is our kitchen. Pretty much the minute we moved in we started working on it by immediately replacing the appliances and removing the cabinets overhanging the peninsula. That completely opened the room up and made the kitchen feel considerably larger. Then we tackled the painting and had a hood custom built. That was the first phase. Then this spring once we had saved up for it we added the marble counters, farmhouse sink and the subway tile backsplash. Then we've made one more change in here. We removed the metal rolling cart island and I built a sideboard for under the oversized chalkboard. I just finished that last week though and although I finally got it photographed I haven't transferred the images onto my computer yet. Once I do though I will do a post on that and try to remember to update these photos.  I also just removed the flush mount drum shade that we put in the kitchen temporarily up to our bedroom. We are hoping to have a bunch of recessed lighting to added to the kitchen and family room that way there won't be anything competing with the beams (except the pendants over the peninsula of course).  The one on the family room side is still up though and will stay there until we actually have someone out to make the change to the recessed lighting for us. Oh and I'd like to eventually add different stools to the counter but that will probably be a little while down the road. I think my favorite part of the kitchen now is the farmhouse sink and the new faucet. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyEm94vvMUBbKK_rESDhjfEuVCFE6AxqFmzPqfh14K-7KAwHfiwxNFGAoVetSESPQA2R7Muh1aCR2-gElQ16Zo7gKUjA_tsh0-6hcmBsm1te-NitFCfFAnjAZxT5vjd3IxDEBUt9kvlyOd/s1600/QBeforeandAfter5b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiyEm94vvMUBbKK_rESDhjfEuVCFE6AxqFmzPqfh14K-7KAwHfiwxNFGAoVetSESPQA2R7Muh1aCR2-gElQ16Zo7gKUjA_tsh0-6hcmBsm1te-NitFCfFAnjAZxT5vjd3IxDEBUt9kvlyOd/s1600/QBeforeandAfter5b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD3fppPr97xHbGQ3XIA5BgnQuXOn1rYtVjxmpydZN6akfsb4CmZsSOIYCmdexT6sBHaBPSZh0Gt1lvXGjUrZOlT73-VKRaCmDCjRoYjV8L4AdlRkwtzuwM_cFxTJZrux_t0djmvuBOFGWe/s1600/QBeforeandAfter6b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="462" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD3fppPr97xHbGQ3XIA5BgnQuXOn1rYtVjxmpydZN6akfsb4CmZsSOIYCmdexT6sBHaBPSZh0Gt1lvXGjUrZOlT73-VKRaCmDCjRoYjV8L4AdlRkwtzuwM_cFxTJZrux_t0djmvuBOFGWe/s1600/QBeforeandAfter6b.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEpMJISWNwI60D8H1QZnjnzrENjPqv2-hvRa_iakT_nTpaxQztlErhjRqJrXmeZJNI8TSbyMTGyLrbvEHNVBExYNrZsRWl01fNok6qo2av-rw9vlKf-1HMzVA4TKAwpEZ57i3H3MGMQcTa/s1600/QQQwFamilyRoom1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEpMJISWNwI60D8H1QZnjnzrENjPqv2-hvRa_iakT_nTpaxQztlErhjRqJrXmeZJNI8TSbyMTGyLrbvEHNVBExYNrZsRWl01fNok6qo2av-rw9vlKf-1HMzVA4TKAwpEZ57i3H3MGMQcTa/s1600/QQQwFamilyRoom1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnEzh22aEADyNlc-Fixjx-JdBYR3_p3VthHbloZNKYpvZoW2hbkQAjRx9AKBFrJLdFJKPQJPbZ9JqpfRLAsCrqYHvx3ATiUdxh3BBnlCUFcXi5nckO3TCkztSIO0Mbhy3dWR46NUraoFWg/s1600/QQwFamilyRoom1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnEzh22aEADyNlc-Fixjx-JdBYR3_p3VthHbloZNKYpvZoW2hbkQAjRx9AKBFrJLdFJKPQJPbZ9JqpfRLAsCrqYHvx3ATiUdxh3BBnlCUFcXi5nckO3TCkztSIO0Mbhy3dWR46NUraoFWg/s1600/QQwFamilyRoom1.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-kPEbnW3bY9vgm4t_3CMwg1dVDcOdKTUctjJlrlMSe82gLYOPGwkcmabGPZzJTtw2CLwT46xM3Nf8dxCDwfyqrwO0igAvl0Uz9y0Nd4G29IcZaFVDANYfLdGMOT90X4x0yfgsGthifLeY/s1600/jDSC_7979.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="436" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-kPEbnW3bY9vgm4t_3CMwg1dVDcOdKTUctjJlrlMSe82gLYOPGwkcmabGPZzJTtw2CLwT46xM3Nf8dxCDwfyqrwO0igAvl0Uz9y0Nd4G29IcZaFVDANYfLdGMOT90X4x0yfgsGthifLeY/s1600/jDSC_7979.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>And you can find a full source list for our kitchen <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/p/our-home.html">here</a> all kitchen related posts <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/search/label/kitchen">here</a> .<br /><br />Our family room was pretty much just painting and then having fun decorating. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiURebxEGqWAwPVT0UurleYacdk6CkuNHZgnybbxHc1xVNfd_OgzdD_k-V3XdxxxPKEht5ZIktARhJFI0GzGT2sFjPwNngMCzrI8ksvZJdFaXI_4yAMpZbhNMm1shbRE00DLY8es_TfZigO/s1600/wFamilyRoom2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiURebxEGqWAwPVT0UurleYacdk6CkuNHZgnybbxHc1xVNfd_OgzdD_k-V3XdxxxPKEht5ZIktARhJFI0GzGT2sFjPwNngMCzrI8ksvZJdFaXI_4yAMpZbhNMm1shbRE00DLY8es_TfZigO/s1600/wFamilyRoom2.jpg" /></a></div>For a full source list for the items shown in these photos of our family room click <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/02/adding-some-spring-colors-in-our.html">here</a> or <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/p/our-home.html">here</a>. <br /><br />And then here is the powder room. This room required quite a bit of cosmetic work but we didn't change the footprint which helped keep the cost down. We got rid of the old wallpaper and then had this new paper put up. Then we replaced the toilet and mirror. We kept the existing vanity but added a new top and sink. Then we just spray painted the sconces for now. I plan on eventually replacing them but am not in any hurry. I still haven't hung any artwork in here. Hopefully I will get to that at some point very soon.

I am not going to lie - I pretty much hated doing all the painting in here. The spindles and risers seemed endless... I mentioned it in the original post, but I felt like I didn't make the best choice for the stair runner. I don't think it was the best pattern to do on the stairs and I don't love it. However, it has grown on me and I have to admit I do like it more than I originally did. (There isn't anything wrong with the runner itself, I just think I would go with a different look if I could). <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOWz0d8cIn4ZFpZcOWcLac1u7MAa4pGuwOBuqxuHQVWPpns96OVfSgapQkWb4esmyGVlcmrR0TH-3uhvRO1it0RjJR6qzKo9ts0Fi7YdP24Y0TWdthWV_vAv-LAi86-PTg89DiopWnQ8E/s1600/whall1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="458" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOWz0d8cIn4ZFpZcOWcLac1u7MAa4pGuwOBuqxuHQVWPpns96OVfSgapQkWb4esmyGVlcmrR0TH-3uhvRO1it0RjJR6qzKo9ts0Fi7YdP24Y0TWdthWV_vAv-LAi86-PTg89DiopWnQ8E/s1600/whall1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKbZS6AwjA0UPDpoq43YhdILTnhi8Mp6YN9zXgbJMWdjMGd6BkSwNdvE_ywlKuX0Y1WpGxqU8k3d0pvOiOeV2ir1Bg4I5_LJo4WD8EJ5i4DbPd2Q5FMcLbCO3_x8VKkh2k8Xs3DjOSylY/s1600/whall2.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="458" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjKbZS6AwjA0UPDpoq43YhdILTnhi8Mp6YN9zXgbJMWdjMGd6BkSwNdvE_ywlKuX0Y1WpGxqU8k3d0pvOiOeV2ir1Bg4I5_LJo4WD8EJ5i4DbPd2Q5FMcLbCO3_x8VKkh2k8Xs3DjOSylY/s1600/whall2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;">This was how it looked with some garland for Christmas: </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNF7MnGzGymSmm5tWFQAzh06CQhn7PEMRBdJfY1hyHDHCMs1fWktg2Ye8AAxTKyEIkVousRhPike_tCaozIVETJdbWyht762waeBvSHdsm9SSGKvcKFMgD_sS-nxdyY9gJ-XilUdCGf4I/s1600/whall3.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="458" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNF7MnGzGymSmm5tWFQAzh06CQhn7PEMRBdJfY1hyHDHCMs1fWktg2Ye8AAxTKyEIkVousRhPike_tCaozIVETJdbWyht762waeBvSHdsm9SSGKvcKFMgD_sS-nxdyY9gJ-XilUdCGf4I/s1600/whall3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Full source list for the entry way can be found <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/01/a-little-more-progress-on-entryway.html">here</a> and <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/p/our-home.html">here</a>.<br /><br />And here is the upstairs hall:<br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfSMsfZRgTiQH5RAz5q5Vx2sQwbFfUR8HTdeiNEInta4bziKz81m4WGyxZYwseHzFTY9Gs3d3VBrXJ4tSZjYxXPmbO5fki60E5hnAIiBpAFPP9owHZcvfprI7B52v1wV4idU7ddWaeNuo/s1600/whall4.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfSMsfZRgTiQH5RAz5q5Vx2sQwbFfUR8HTdeiNEInta4bziKz81m4WGyxZYwseHzFTY9Gs3d3VBrXJ4tSZjYxXPmbO5fki60E5hnAIiBpAFPP9owHZcvfprI7B52v1wV4idU7ddWaeNuo/s1600/whall4.jpg" /></a></div> And here's a source list for what we've done so far in the upstairs hall <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/01/progress-in-upstairs-hallway.html">here</a>.

We did their room right after we move in. I still have a couple more projects I plan on doing in here including doing some kind of upholstered headboard (I've considered several things including kind of making a slipcover for their current headboards) and adding a bench or trunk to the end of their beds. I actually moved the rug into the playroom a couple of days ago and added some buffalo check quilts to the ends of their beds. (If you've been reading most of this text in this post you can see I was doing quite a bit of switching things around this last week or so. I had planned on taking a bunch of new photos for this post but it was a bit of a rough week with some sick kiddos so that went out the window. Hopefully I will get some photos taken soon though). <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXw9D_3pRxxk9AbTmwtNt_6M5MC4KnGkEn_eoFgFhQhP5PNZ4tVQUi-f2ZfWtoL0zrGkXghVojUmAiW2nZHms84ynM-O2M3HdpT9KILsHZEI6_T0z3Pg5lCFuc-7vIXNJ1SL97hVcAzS0/s1600/jbeforeafter2.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="460" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXw9D_3pRxxk9AbTmwtNt_6M5MC4KnGkEn_eoFgFhQhP5PNZ4tVQUi-f2ZfWtoL0zrGkXghVojUmAiW2nZHms84ynM-O2M3HdpT9KILsHZEI6_T0z3Pg5lCFuc-7vIXNJ1SL97hVcAzS0/s1600/jbeforeafter2.png" width="640" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDu4k4FQAamIapK1zVRyL2JO2zyK4lX_XrJhv0RP43153TKRX2rURMDPOOjn1jDMTAwIniwZRVDXBQAns3p5hmorIyoq9Tp0HeepnV79DWjhSSPMP8jEE_29yhlFn_Oh7akbR1Q1unrds/s1600/xgirlsroom.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDu4k4FQAamIapK1zVRyL2JO2zyK4lX_XrJhv0RP43153TKRX2rURMDPOOjn1jDMTAwIniwZRVDXBQAns3p5hmorIyoq9Tp0HeepnV79DWjhSSPMP8jEE_29yhlFn_Oh7akbR1Q1unrds/s1600/xgirlsroom.jpg" /></a></div>A full source list with lots more photos and details can be found <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2013/09/lillie-and-lolas-new-room-not-quite.html">here</a>.<br /><br /><br />And here is our master bedroom.

I am not going to lie - I hated doing the painting but I am so glad we did because I think it really helped lighten the house up and make it feel so much more updated. And now I can focus on more of the fun decorating type things I love doing. I'm excited to show you the sideboard in the kitchen and some other projects we've been working on.

One Year Later...

Well, one year and one day ago we moved into this home. (And yes, I was planning on posting this yesterday which would have been exactly one year ago but things don't always go according to plan when you have little girls, so this is a day late - sorry!)After living in our townhouse for five years w…

I still have a few thing I am working on (like the wall opposite the bed) but we've made quite a bit of progress.<br /><br />The before pictures were from literally right after we moved in so the room was a complete mess and we had no idea what we were going to use where. And sorry that the before pictures have such a weird pink hue to them, I have no idea why they look that way. The dresser in the before picture is now in <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/01/january-in-our-den.html">our den</a>, the chalkboard and the nightstands are now in our <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/05/adding-desk-to-our-guest-bedroomoffice.html">guest room/office</a> and the queen sized bed went in to the <a href="http://dearlillieblog.blogspot.com/2014/05/some-finishing-touches-to-our-gray.html">gray guest bedroom</a> which is nice having in there because we have so many family members that come visit. We decided to go with a  king size bed so we got mattresses once we moved the queen sized bed into the guest room and then slept with them on the floor for quite a while before deciding on this bed from Ballard Designs which we absolutely LOVE. It was a big splurge for us but I have to say I am so happy we went with it. It took a little longer than expected to arrive but the quality of it is amazing. <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
