Walking in the front door was a
visual assault
|

Now the home is calm and relaxing
instead of a garishly colored comic book scheme. |
|
|
|
|

Living room was a terrible orange
|

Now the living room is a calm
green- you no longer have to squint!
|
|

Bare ORANGE

The orange squeezed the breath
out of you

Part of our Irish Wolfhound art collection

We find this much more relaxing |
|

Did we mention how much we HATED
the colors? |

Did we mention how much we love the new paint job?
|
|

The kitchen really was the worst
of all- it was hideous, gross, and just an all around bad idea.
|

As much as I would love a total kitchen redo, I
think simple new paint did wonders for the space. And the new French door
fridge, too.
|
|

WHO thought this was a good idea?
|

We love the new colors. |
|

Door to the side porch on the
left
|

And the door to the basement on
the right |
|

This really was the worst of all-
it looks like a box of crayons exploded
|

MUCH better
|
|

Teeny third bedroom
|

Is now an office
|
|

Previous owners had clutter
issues in the second bedroom- ya think?
|

Not big enough to be more than a
simple bedroom.
|
|

They even managed to screw up a
simple bathroom
|

We put it right in short order
|
|

Basement was the only staged
place in the house- it must have been horrific. But they painted great wads
of dog hair into the floor.
|

It's still a basement, but it's
our favorite place to be.
|
|

Yep- this is the only area they
cleaned before selling the place.
|

It still needs work but you can see where it is going.
It's Billy's "Man Room".
|
|

Nasty laundry area
|

Much better now.
