The Long Awaited House Photos...
Some photos are ready; more are on the way... Sorry it is taking so long. There are some pretty strange "before photos"--most are taken of flaws because they were taken while I was still debating the purchase. You know, looking at the upstairs “before photos,” I think maybe they let the kids design and choose the color schemes… *SHUDDERS* What were they thinking? There’s no transitioning between the rooms—they absolutely clash and make the other rooms look even worse (hard to believe, but yes, it is possible).
In fact, between the filthiness of the house, the bizarre paint jobs, and the way the repairs took place—I am now convinced that this is the “Lord of the Flies House.” There never was an island—the story was based on this house! Surely no adults ever lived here! No adult would permit such atrocities! This was a house controlled by children—there is no other logical explanation!
Anyhoo, to celebrate my one year anniversary of being a home owner (September 13th)--here are the long awaited house photos!
Downstairs
Kitchen: Before and Now
Dining Room/Library: Before, Inbetween and Now
Office/Ferret Room: Before and Now
Downstairs Bathroom: Before and Now
Guest Room: Before and Now
Mudroom: Before and Now
Upstairs
Living Room: Before, Inbetween and Now
Master Bedroom: Before, Inbetween and Now
Master Bath: Before and Now
Gameroom: Before and Now
Playroom: Before, Inbetween, (Not finished yet)
Room Transitions: Before and Now
Pete thought that it would be great to add my bizarre stuff to her horrible paint jobs and to sit back and watch the chaos that surely would ensue. The “inbetween” photos give you an idea of what my house would have looked like if I had taken Pete’s advice. The Meditation/Playroom is still in the inbetween phase because I haven’t painted it yet—hopefully this winter…
Anyhoo, the inevitable question, why so many pictures? Insurance purposes. When my apartment on Main Street flooded, my apartment photos were a absolute blessing! Anyhoo, if you notice any links that aren't working (there are a few more here than I am used to dealing with), let me know. Thanks!
