Abilene has a LOT of colorful bathroom tile!! This pale pink bathroom needed a little updating. We were able to use a tile paint from Sherwin Williams to clean it up to a nice white. We normally stick to neutral colors, but this time I went bold with a warm copper for the walls! See… Continue reading Goodbye 60’s pink tile…
Our latest rehab is on the market and I'm enjoying reminiscing over where it began! Digging through old photos is always the fun part. Sometimes it's hard to remember how far a house has come! For this kitchen we kept the original cabinets but we removed the cook top and built in oven to provide… Continue reading How we updated a 60’s kitchen
Sometimes designing a rehab project is easy. But sometimes, you buy a house with an elevated living room and an L shaped brick wall, and it leaves you stumped as to the best way to fix it up. I came up with several ideas about how to utilize the wall, but at the end of… Continue reading What knocking out a brick wall gets you…
Our recently purchased house is a home in the making (yep, we are living in a project while flipping another house!). Just showing off some of my husband's recent work: This is now our son's room. The built in bookshelf makes a great place to organize his toys and books! But first he had to get… Continue reading The bookshelf stays, everything else goes!
We just started renovations on our recently purchased home! I will be posting updates as Joseph completes sections of the work. This is our master bathroom, complete with lovely, very old, green carpet (yes, it looks brown, but it was green) and tiny corner toilet. Here is the view from the entrance. We are keeping… Continue reading Goodbye green shag bathroom carpet…
The master bathroom certainly needed the least work. Even though we removed every last yellow tile from the guest bathroom, we decided the teal tile was adorable and kept it! Before... After. We updated the medicine cabinet and light fixture and softened the walls with a grey color instead of white. We removed the old… Continue reading House Flip: 341 // Master Bathroom
Here are some pictures before and after the remodel of the kitchen area, which included a breakfast nook. This view is from the living room. The room through the door on the left was a bit odd. It could be a sitting room, or a large formal dining, or a second family room. See below… Continue reading House Flip: 341 // The Kitchen
This room remains my FAVORITE transformation. This is the guest bathroom in the hallway. The pale yellow tile was original from the 50's. This is the view from the original door (yes, I said original, because we moved the door!). That's a LOT of yellow tile. And the boxed in toilet (eek!). The counter top… Continue reading House Flip: 341 // Guest Bathroom
One of the most enjoyable parts of remodeling projects is reviewing the before and after photos. Here are a few from a complete house flip we did in 2016. This is the living room as seen from the kitchen. The room had dark trim and a large odd mirror with a blue fireplace wall. The… Continue reading House Flip 341 // The Living Room
