Possibly a week until we close on the house. Crazy! We have been waiting for a while to close (at least it seems like it) and now all of a sudden they are saying "ok we are closing next week". It is going to take a while to make the house the way I want it, but Im excited about all the different ideas Im finding. I dont think Andrew is going to be excited about all these ideas though. Ive already made a long list of all the things I want to do, including painting every room. The walls are tan and I love color, so the tan has got to go. Im excited to paint the laundry room. Its small, but the laundry room was the only room in our last house that I never painted.
Since this isnt my dream house, especially in sq footage, I told Andrew that I get to pick all the paint colors and he has no choice. :) Its going to be really annoying if I make some color mistakes, which is very possible with all the colors im thinking of.
Im really exited about A.'s bedroom. I am going to do a train theme but Im not sure yet what that will entail. I havnt decided if I want to do a train bed, train mural, or what! I have a feeling it will be one of the last rooms ill be able to finish it. The tough part will be to stay focused and finish a project before starting another.
So one or a few things at a time, I think we will "bomb" the house so we kill any bugs, clean the carpets, and tackle this ugly chandelier! Im pretty sure I can save some money and create a modern chandelier by spray painting it, and getting some new glass shades.
I am getting lots of inspiration from pinterest, here is one of them.
