changes – directions not included before and afters

August 7, 2014 2 Comments

I was messing around with my blog design and realized I have been really bad at updating the pages on this site. Guess I’ll take some time this weekend for some blog clean up! I’m working on a new house tour page, but in the meantime, I thought it would good to give a quick run through of the latest before and afters since this is a DIY blog after all. For all you new followers who have yet to see our “beautiful” before shots, this might come at a surprise – this house was pretty damn ugly. And it was smelly, dusty and termite-filled as well.

I know I’ve lived with this mess for quite some time, but I do think we’ve made some great progress in these before and afters. I can’t wait until we crank out the next phase of renovations throughout this year and next. I can almost see the light at the end of the tunnel!

So what is your favorite transformation so far?
