Living Room Curtains!

|
Here are my new curtains for the living room! It's a large window spanning 113" in width including trim. I hung blue Pirouette Lined Rod Pocket Curtains from floor to ceiling. The panels are 96" tall by 51" each so it framed the room perfectly.




Project Befores...

|
I'm so bad at taking before pics before I get to make things afters...so here are the befores of some projects I'm going to start soon. Hopefully. Need suggestions on what I should do!

Chandelier for breakfast area or somewhere...

Mail box/front yard before landscaping but after we removed all the trees/bushes:

Some more before outside landscaping in front of the house.....but still after clearing of trees/bushes:

Front door before.....

Ugly stool before...
 

Breakfast area chairs before....I really need some creative suggestions on these!

Can I put molding on my stairways? Here's the before...

Would love some suggestions!

Cabinets Done!

|
Just to remind you, this is the kitchen cabinets before:
              
                     
And here are the kitchen cabinets now:

I used Behr Premium Paint and Primer in one, in Bleached Linen (satin finish). I know some think it's better to use a higher gloss finish but I decided not to since my countertops are already pretty glossy-looking. Not to mention the fact that the cabinets were in less than perfect condition and hi-gloss would have just accentuated the imperfections.

I still need to paint the baseboards and floor trim but we plan to remove the old linoleum floor and replace with ceramic tile. I'm also putting in a subway tile backsplash -- maybe travetine or something with texture.

Do you think I did ok? Comments and feedback always welcome! Thanks!
