The BIG Reveal!

I am so sorry that I have not posted this sooner. So, after a long wait here is what I have been spending all of my free time on for the past several weeks: decorating Bryan's house! It has been so much fun and a lot of work. Bryan and I are both really happy with the end result. When it all started I committed to do the main level. After all was said and done we did the main level, the basement, and the office. Here are some before and after pictures of all the hard work!!

Before:

The kitchen

Dining area

Living Room

Basement

I guess I never took a before picture of the office. So sorry!

After:

The kitchen

Dining Area

Living Room

There are so many things that I love in this room. It is my favorite room in the house! I love the rug. The drapes are a really beautiful paisley. Plus, the furniture is super comfy.

Living Room (different view)

This is the beautiful bookcase that Bryan found. I just love how it looks in the room!

The Basement

The Basement Bathroom

I really love this bathroom, but it's very hard to see in the picture. Over the toilet are some beautiful wood carvings. There are matching squares in the stairwell. They're just cool.

The Office

The Office (con't)

I'm really happy that we were able to incorporate some details that make it a little more "homey" like family pictures, church pictures, etc. My favorite places to shop: Tai Pan Trading!!, Ross, Target, TJ Maxx, and D.I. Yes, that's right I really like DI. I got all of the old books you see from there for really cheap and I think they added a lot to the living room and the basement. We used Bryan's own books for the office. What a fun experience!

Although a picture is worth a thousand words, I don't feel that these pictures do justice to the house. I'm sure Bryan would be happy to give anyone a personal tour. :-)
