And now the dinning room!

Keeping up the same yellow and blue... the previous owner definitely knew what she liked.

It was definitely pretty and in great shape, but just not our jam.


Started with the frames around the windows. I guess you have to start somewhere!


And then hey... why not a wall?! Woops... found some asbestos. No big deal ;)


And then another wall! This was about the time I got nervous! I guess this is why people don't do demolition on their own houses!


That was some nasty stuff!


And lots of it!


At least its nice and open now :)



Even though everything here wasn't our style, part of the reason we were drawn to this house was the fact that everything looked like it was in great condition. It just felt like it was a home that had been loved - so we want to do it the same justice. We are definitely in the building stage now - those pics will hopefully be up here this weekend.
