The House is Complete!

Well, the inside of the house was finished a couple of weeks ago. It is so nice for everything to be updated, fresh, and clean. The last room was the laundry area, which is very non-exciting for most to see the "before and after" picture, but still quite exciting for us since it was the last room!

Here is the before:



Jamie added a shelf that is "Buffy size" above the washer/dryer. I've never lived in a house where the shelf was functional to me, because it was always too high. So, it never really served a purpose to actually hold laundry detergent and such. I refurbished a curtain to hide all my junk behind there and it goes with the bathroom colors that is in the same room also.



We also added a couple of coat racks to help with clutter in the winter. The kids' shoes have been housed in this room since we moved already and I added a little personal touch above the shoe shelf. I couldn't resist adding their handprints in a purposeful way and not ones that need to be cleaned off:-)

We still have some garage/outside organization to take care of, but the inside of the house is complete. And I STILL need to get my pictures from Davida's!!!! However, the hard work is done! We have had to learn a lot along the way, but it has also been kind of fun to see the transformation too.

Here are the past blog links for the whole house transformation:
