Before & After, Living Room

Before






Originally we weren't going to remove the closet next to the front door because we were afraid it might take too much work. Then the night before we started demolition, Scott's friend from Louisville who came to help us took one look at it and said, "it needs to go". It was down in about an hour the next day. I am so so so glad that it is gone now.

During




After




We obviously have more to do - but it's a start.

Love the vent covers! I understand about getting excited about little things, sometimes you can just be happy to find new ones that are the right size that fit!!!

Emily, it looks so wonderful! I love that I have been there and can picture the space. My favorite thing is your wall map. Where in the world did you find that beauty?

Thanks you guys! Kristie, we got it at an estate sale in Louisville. They are the best! It was rolled up and stuck in the corner of the basement - get this - only $5!

Wow, I love the improvements you've made on your home! That bathroom looks 10x better and I love the theme of your living room- sort of old world/travel inspired.
