And We're Back

It's been a little while! But life sometimes has more pressing issues that need tending to and frankly, we needed a little bit of a break once the house was liveable and the construction loan was up.
At any rate, here are a few decor pics from around the house...

Bathroom Flooring and Lighting

The upstairs bathroom now has a brand new floor, rather than the old plywood that was there (no original flooring to refinish here). We also got a new overhead light and above the mirror light installed. Now we need a vanity and sinks and the bathroom will be complete!



Master Bedroom Floor

Started in on the master bedroom floor a few weeks ago. Got it all sanded and prepped. This floor is a different wood than the rest of the house so we weren't sure if the stain would look the same. It now has a layer of stain and 2 of the 3 coats of varnish.


Library Lighting

We got this beautiful Tiffany style pendant light at a garage sale over the summer but were finally just able to get it hung up. The electrical work in the house leaves a lot to be desired. Namely, none of the lights have electrical boxes in the ceiling. And this light was way too heavy hang without the proper reinforcement. But we got all that taken care of and it looks just lovely!

Master Bedroom Floor

Sanded the floor of the master bedroom this weekend. Looks much better and didn't take nearly as much sanding as some of the other floors in the house. It will be stained dark to match all the other flooring. We also painted one wall to try out the color and think it's gonna be a keeper - Exotic Eggplant by Behr.

Primer Time

Got a coat of primer on the master bedroom this past weekend. Excited to finally get some paint on these walls!
