DIY

Most of you know that we did a lot of remodeling on our house before we moved in. We spent about 6 months fixing it up. I took some before and after photos so I could have proof of all the hard work. :) We're still not completely finished. It's a work in progress.

I didn't truly get a before picture since we had already torn out the carpeting when I took these photos. This is the pile of the nasty carpet that we removed. Very few people saw the house before the carpet was gone. It was so ugly. I think each room had carpet from a different decade. I can't believe we considered keeping it. I'm so glad we found the hardwood underneath. It was a ton of work to refinish but it looks so much better (and I think our house is so much cleaner.)







Yes, that was carpet in the kitchen. I hope you can tell the difference between before and after. Now to the outside...

I still think the green in your living room is my favorite paint color I have ever seen. I think I tell you that almost every time we come over, but I just want you to know, it hasn't changed :o)
