Coming from a 3 bed room 2 bath home you would think I would have had a lot of decor already, well I thought so too. I'm not sure why this home still looks like its empty, but it does.
As of right now, Mike and I are not going to paint the inside of our house. It was painted right before we moved in so everything is a fresh boring white. Thinking about painting seems fun now but 3 years down the road, having to prime over it ourselves again before we leave probably will be a pain in the butt.
I have come to the conclusion today that my house will never be totally done with me being 100% happy with it. I will always want to change something or will see something and have to have it. Its just how it going to go I guess.
This is just a few rooms of the house. The office, kitchen, backyard and laundry room are still not even close to being done, but I'm working on it.
Living Room
I still would like to add one more thing on the wall to the left of the TV. I have searched all over the internet trying to find those Peir One wall decorations so I could put another one on the other side, but no luck. I'm still trying to think what would be good there. Mirror maybe but I already have one on the other side. (behind the couch)
Dining Room
We were contemplating using our dining table that seats 8 people but thought that the space might be to tight for that. In till we have a big Thanksgiving meal, I think this one was a good choice for just Mike and I.
Master Bedroom
I still would love to get a sleigh head and foot board for the bed.
and hang something around the TV area...maybe the TV its self.
Master Bathroom
For some reason this is my least favorite room. I wanted to do a light green color theme but now that I had bought all of the light green things...I don't think it goes well with the floor. I will just have to suck it up and deal with it because Mike would kill me for wasting money.
ugg...
Guest Bedroom
Once again I would still like to add something to the right side wall. (decorative shelves or something) but for now this room is done.
Guest Bathroom
This bathroom is the only one I kept from our old house.
Down Stairs Bathroom
My sea shell theme.
and once again would like to maybe add something to the wall above the towels.
So now that I have written this post, I realize I am not happy with my house and need to get a move on it and finish already.
Hopefully in the next few weeks (or months) I will have the other rooms done so we can finally enjoy the comfort of home.
Just a quick reminder. The last day to enter my Professional Beauty Products Giveaway is TODAY!
Your home is beautiful!! :) I really enjoyed the pictures.
ReplyDeleteMoving, decorating is such a pain. O hope you get settled and things the way you like them soon.
ReplyDeleteLove it! Should look into some art for the blank areas you're trying to fill. We have such a small house right now that I have a few art pieces behind our couch because there isn't enough wall space... :( I know how you feel when seeing something and just having to have it... Someday. ;) Good job so far!
ReplyDeleteThe house looks GREAT!! Decorating all that wall space can be such a project though, I'm sure. But you'll get there slowly but surely! Matt & I really miss you guys! Hope everything is going well :) Give Bolo a good scratch on the butt for us! lol.
ReplyDeleteI know exactly how you feel! I've also submitted to the idea that I'll never get this place how I want it, and that's okay, because it's just temporary. I've moved on to having fun decorating for the holidays, haha. One thing I would suggest adding is curtains -- I didn't realize how much more they'd make things look "homey", but they do!
ReplyDeleteCurtains are a great idea!!! Hope things are going well with you :)
DeleteI know how you feel. Then I started going to stores in Jacksonville and was equally disappointed at what I found... then my great husband started taking me to the thrift stores. It was the best thing! I have found so many thing there that we have repurposed into some awesome pieces.
