inside

I thought I should post a few "before" pictures of our house. I'm not sure when we will post "after" pictures since we've had to spend all our money on essential, boring things like garbage cans and drawer organizers. Most of the fun things like decorations and pictures will have to wait. We are about 75% unpacked and are really enjoying our new space.

Our living room and doorways into the dining area and hallway
Our kitchen. It's been so much fun to cook and even clean in my new kitchen. Don't worry, we do have a range, it just wasn't in yet when I took this picture.

The view from inside our bedroom. We have several of these plant shelves, and other than some cool lighting, we aren't sure what we are going to do with them, but we really like them.

The one space that I have decorated the way I like it: my dining table. I'm still not sure what I'm going to do for window treatments over the sliding glass door (any suggestions would be appreciated), but I'm really loving the table, linens and dishes!

What a beautiful house! I love the dining room decor! I wish I could be so bold and colorful. Can't wait to see more decorating. Good luck getting everything settled.

Wow. I love your place. I didn't realize it was brand new, new. That's so exciting to have a place of your own. We have been in our house for almost a year and still haven't hung pictures, so don't worry too much.

Love the dark baseboards and doors! You will have so much fun decorating! If you can make cinderblock walls look stylish, you can do anything!
