Under construction!
Getting ready for baby! Our home has been under construction! It still needs lots of love but we've got the groundwork down for the babies to join us!
BEFORE:
AFTER:
WHAT a difference carpet makes! Still need an office chair and mat for the office. Also I'm expecting to file/organize the mess behind the closet door! Eventually I'll be sharing this office with the little ones, placing a table, chairs and bookshelves for them and their books! Oh and the pencil drawing in the back is Yours Truly in Paris circa March 1999....I personally don't feel it captures my essence but Hubby and the Artist feel that that's how they see me....I have NO cleft chin!
No before pics for the next few rooms. I am BEGGING Hubby to let me paint the 70's wood panelling walls! He's bucking it BUT I'm planning on getting someone to tell him that the walls are veneer and not REAL wood! He wouldn't mind painting veneer!
Future nursery! Needs everything...painting, curtains, furniture etc....and last but not least of all, the twins!
Victoria's bedroom. Needs curtains and probably could use a new comforter set....still organizing this room but it's probably reached its final stage at least for a while!
Formal living/Dining...ahh the formal living. Empty since we gave the formal furniture to my MIL....we expect to get formal living furniture & a baby Grand piano then the 2 art pieces will go up-La Pistolera and Pistola & Corazon...
Master bedroom--missing many decorations & seating area....of course next to my side of the bed (left) I'll have a cradle and/or bassinet for the twins for use while they are still newborns...
So there it is, new carpet & the beginnings of furniture rearranging etc. Finally got everything out of the DEN! Boxes were everywhere. They are now in the utility room waiting to be taken to the garage. Kitchen/Den still need missing pieces of furniture here & there. Major work still to be done are master bath & granite countertops for the kitchen......
More to come on our journey to ready the house for the little ones!
