A Blank Slate

Not sure what day it is...forever it seems since we started... Now is the the fun and the hard part...getting it all to look the way I want it to and then moving us all back in and dealing with the old house where every room will be re-purposed: cleaned out, repainted, and moved back into.

Since the last update, we have had all three layers of stucco on the exterior and the house will be painted on the outside next week to match our existing house.

The doors and windows have all been installed and trimmed.

The interior has been drywalled and primed. Next step is painting which I am mostly doing myself--a little sweat equity in our house :)

And then the flooring, cabinets, plumbing, electric, and BAM..it's done...or at least I'd like to think so.

Right now it is a big white canvas of a house just waiting for some color.


The stucco is white right now, but it will be blue soon.
White interior living room...still deciding on what color the walls will be.

White interior kitchen...yellow and white with blue backsplash.
Tiles for the kitchen backsplash.
Tiles for the Master Bath.



Original utility sink-1952 cast iron. I had it sand blasted and I am repainting and it will go into my laundry room.
I love it.
