When I bought this house I had to look past the outdated decorating. It was quite feminine, but not my taste.
There were BIG floral patterns and bunnies everywhere. Every room, including the laundry room, had a floral border. The kitchen and dining room, as well as the master bathroom, had wallpaper in addition to the border.
Every room had a different floral pattern. There are still are stained glass bunnies over the front door and the carpet all over the house is mauve-pink.
My house projects started with opening up the kitchen to the living room. Originally it was open. The previous owner built a wall to close it up and did I feel closed in!
I have now removed every scrap of wallpaper and border from the walls. Every wall has been textured and painted.
My yard is looking really great as well. It is amazing what a little TLC will do for a home.
One day I will replace the carpet, but I am starting at the top and working my way down. It has already been transformed in just a year and I am enjoying living here.
I will post photos soon! Check back.
It's me! SSS
