Sharing some before and after photos of the re-do for my new (old) home. Learning as we go is fun but learning our limits (physical & mental) has been a challenge. I have to say that we constantly had to repeat to ourselves that we would be done someday and could sit back and chill. I'm not too sure that's true for anyone who owns a home, there is always something...
first some before pix of the great room taken when I was buying this place
the other side of the room shows the fireplace before I started
This pix shows the transformation taking place. Everything is getting looked at with LIGHT in mind. Brown fireplace goes white, beige walls go grey...
Carpet comes out and hardwood goes down in a natural red oak.
Shows the finished room,
Brighter and what we call home. The room is small and the glass table gives us function without clutter.
