Remember when I posted our house list a while ago? Well, we've made some great process on it, so I wanted to give you an update.
Basement (which includes storage room, home theater, and laundry room/bathroom)
*Paint trim DONE
*Fix mess ups from paint job DONE
*Fix windows [These are really old and outdated and are actually letting air in. Bad.]
*Paint stairs [We want to paint them to match the rest of the room, kind of a khaki-green color.]
*Paint stair ledge and trim
*Hang photos [These got taken down when we moved the furniture down.]
*Put lights in sconces [The sconces cover up the rear speakers.] DONE, and they look awesome
*Make bar/organize bar [Turning my old craft desk into a bar. It's going to be cool!] Functional, just not pretty
*Organize the pile of nails and screws in the tool drawer [Nathan's addition to the list.] DONE
*Replace tile [Shelby chewed a hole in the floor when she was a puppy. We then moved her up to the kitchen.] DONE
*Add baseboard [Shelby also chewed up a wall that didn't have a baseboard on it. It needs to be fixed.]
*Paint laundry room [There are some holes that need filled.]
*Fix shower [There are some tiling issues currently.]
Living Room
*Paint [While most people love the color in there now, we aren't the biggest fans, so this is one of the last rooms we need to work on. We're thinking a purple accent wall leading into the kitchen, and then a gray/tan/cream on the rest of the walls.]
*Paint trim [This is one of the worst rooms in terms of not clean trim...]
*Stain loveseat/recover [We bought a love seat off of craigslist that just needs to match our existing furniture.]
*Hang curtains DONE
*Hang photos [I have some fun ideas for the room, but until we paint . . . ]
*Organize shelves [The big bookcases in here are starting to have random piles on them, kind of a throwall if you will.]
*Get pillows for loveseat [We'll have to see how the rooms turn out first.]
Kitchen
*Re-organize cabinets and bakers rack [The way we have it now still just doesn't feel right to me.] DONE, and it's just right now
*PAINT!!!! [This is how it appears on the list. The kitchen paint is my least favorite in all of the house. Four colors of gray/silver and a bright blue, with wood cabinet doors only.]
*Clean oven and microwave [I'd be really embarrassed if anyone ever saw these. I just always forget about them when cleaning!.] DONE
*Set up recycling system. ATTEMPTED
*Add door that goes out to the backyard [This is a future project.]
*Remove molding [One wall has molding that will need to be taken out to add cabinets.]
*Hang photos
And, because the rooms that we were mostly done with never made it onto the list:
Bathroom/Hallway
*Clean out/Rearrange cupboard WILL BE DONE TODAY
*Repaint cupboard
*Paint Hallway
*Paint trim
My Room
*Paint trim DONE
*Paint desk
*Hang up photos
Nathan's Room
*Paint trim DONE
*Hang up photos
Master Bedroom
*Hang up photos
*Paint trim DONE
*Paint desk and recover chair
*Make lamps
See? We're doing well! And with the spring weather on the way in, it will be even easier to check some things off. Of course, you'll be updated as we go, too.
