A DIY Weekend

With the new houses coming up for sale this week (hopefully), we're trying to get our house in order for sale. The kitchen is the main area that needs attention. We are trying to keep our expenses at a minimum as we finish the house and a new kitchen would cost way too much money. Instead, we decided to replace the kitchen cabinets and paint everything white.

Here's what the kitchen looked like when we first moved in...













Here's what the kitchen looks like now. We still have another few coats of paint for the walls, but it's starting to look cleaner and more modern.











I don't have a before picture of the loft when we first moved in, but it was pretty dark and shady up there. The walls were midnight blue and the carpet worn and dated. We've lightened everything up with magnolia and lilac- it's starting to really take shape!
















I'll post some more pictures when we've finished off the rooms. Hopefully we'll have some good news to report on the new house!!

  • Super cute! I know there isn't a risk of not wanting to leave, but don't torture yourself with adorableness!
