Pictures of the House Remodel - During

And here are the remodeling pictures!!!

We painted all the trim white to brighten up the house since the previous owners have dark brown trim. We also took off all the doors and painted them white too. This is Dustin hard at work putting the door back on. He also put in the hardwood floors with the help of my brother. It turned out fantastic!


This is the bathroom after the painting. It really brightened up the room!



We added an all white vanity and mirror.



And here is the baby's room :) This was the best room to remodel. The hardwood floors are all throughout the house so we put it in her room as well. We also put a chair rail in the room to seperate the two shades of pink. We added a fan with lights and new blinds to brighten up the room. Her uncle is going to be painting on the lady bugs and flowers in a few days!

This is the master bedroom. We painted the walls a light green and added hardwood floors. We also put up new blinds.

The TINY closet in our room. We are currently in the process of planning how to get more closet space!


Here is a picture of the kitchen after it had been painted. Note my mom is cleaning while Dustin picks at his blister!


This is the living room facing towards the front door. This is the only door that isn't white because we are planning on getting a new one.


Here is my brother and dad hard at work working on the base boards. You can see the light blue/gray color we picked out for the walls and the hardwood floors that really brighten up this room.

So after a month of work this is what the house currently looks like. We are hoping to move in later this month and we will post more pictures as the house comes along!

Pictures of the House Remodel - Before

Finally we have some pictures to show of the remodel process. Below are the pictures of the house before. Right after this post we will post all the remodel pictures ... this website can't handle lots of pictures in one post :) Some of the pictures are very dark and that is because the colors of the wallpaper before were very dark, not because we suck at taking pictures!

Here is the outside of our house ... and yes that is a 2 car garage!



This is our wonderful master bedroom before. There was 3 layers of vinyl wallpaper in this room that we had to tear down. We also had to rip up the carpet and put up new blinds.





Here is the living room before. More wallpaper to tear down and yes we threw away the ugly velvet curtains! We also ripped up the carpet and put up new blinds.


Another view of the living room. This is faced towards the front door.

We really didn't have to do much to the kitchen. All the cabinets and tile were brand new. All we did was take down the wallpaper and paint it.


Here is the bathroom before. The people before us though it would be cool to wallpaper over the tile ... weird. We took off the wallpaper and put in a new vanity and shower head and painted.

This is the baby's room before. More layers of wallpaper to take down! There was also tile in this room but we just laid the hardwood floors over it.
