This weekend I flew without Luke to the SAV. house for some work. Luke is on the final push at the job and just couldn't afford to take off since we are leaving for Park City tomorrow through the weekend. Luckily...I have the best family ever... and my parents along with my first cousin Tyler were in tow to help out.
We did get a lot accomplished, but have many a miles to go. I'll post the pics and walk you through the progress made and some items left.
All of the trim in the entire house and all doors were off white. Here you can see the newly painted white doors and trim. We finished all of the downstairs trim (Thank you Tyler).
We have the drapes hung (lower than I would like, but that's a whole long story I won't make you all suffer through). I agree with my mom in that I need at least one more on each side so they don't look so scrawny.
I still have to paint the coffee table, and I've decided the fan blades will get a slight brush of white to lighten them up a bit. The poor barstools are still waiting for an updated kitchen before they can find a home.
So this will probably scare some of you! The ceiling is complete in bedroom number one. We only got one coat of white on the walls in here before we had to leave. The vision for this room is white bed (which is taking forever to get here), white walls, white basically everything except the ceiling, comforter, and drapes. Eventually the bench will be white and I'm going to try my hand at making cute custom bench cushion, etc...
Before furnishings we still have to finish painting walls, putting up the crown, and paint all trim, etc...
This next bedroom is not an Auburn room actually. I fell in love with this color pumpkin spice in a magazine. We finished up the ceiling sanding and painting this weekend along with all paint on the walls.
The vision for this room is orange walls, rope or natural headboard (DIY Project Potential), you can see the horizontal striped comforter. We still have to hang the fan (it's navy and white), put up crown, make the headboard, paint trim, move bed into it's proper spot, etc
We didn't get to the master except that we finished the ceiling sanding, painting and hung the ceiling fan. I think one more long weekend and we should be in pretty good shape. The BIG to do projects left that we are working on behind the scenes are Kitchen (numero uno), and flooring change for the master bedroom and upstairs hallway to match the rest of the house.
Hopefully March will be a month full of work and progress. Thank you again to all who have been helping us. Luke and I appreciate it more than you know.
