{changin' it up}

I love my house.

I love knowing every nook and cranny.

But sometimes, cleaning and dusting the same thing everyday gets old, so I enjoy changing things up.

{well, in this case, enjoy watching talented husband and friends change it up}

Before {circa redo 2009}

new curtains and paint.

"During"

August/September 2011

After

October 2011

new light fixture above the dining room table

Updated/rearranged kitchen decor

new carpet, ceiling, homeade curtains, couches, paint, and light fixtures. 

Paneling and tv

My amazing lamp find from D.I.

{already done , no paint job needed. Just a shade makeover}

It's crazy weird how I feel like the room feels so much bigger now.

Selling my entertainment center was a huge deal for me.

I loved it, I loved decorating it for every season, but it ultimately wouldn't work with the new tv set up.

{i am so glad}

I never realized how much space it was taking in my family room.

and how clean it feels without it.

Especially since I traded it in for the paneling.

{did I mention that I love/lust that amazing paneling}

Good trade in my book.

Hope you enjoyed the peek into our main living space.

mi casa es su casa!
