House Renovation Part 3

House Renovation Part 3

A Farmhouse Restoration

In case you missed my first two posts you can check out Part 1 (here) and Part 2 (here).  After a lot of blood, sweat and tears we finally finished.  All work was by my Dad (who is a contractor) and help from us.  The renovation was spread out over time since he was still working on other (paying) houses. :)  In the end it worked out perfectly since we were able to get a lot of building materials free or at a discount.  The kitchen cabinets we installed were taken out of a house he was working on who decided not to re-install them, etc.  Without further ado,  drum roll please...


Do you remember this?

These wall sconces were originally chrome with beaded shades and hanging crystals from Lowes.  I found them on clearance for $3.88 each.  Nothing a little spray paint couldn't fix!


I am constantly changing our furniture layouts, paint, etc.  I love coming up with new DIY ideas and creating them for our home.  Check back for more photos and projects!
