House details:
2-story town-home - 3 bedroom/2 full bathrooms. It has an attached one-car garage with enough space for a washer and dryer, a balcony, and a small backyard. I think it's about 1300-1350 square feet. The house was built in 1988.
OK, I have added some kitchen photos! I was going to clean out the garage and take some photos of that today but the painting company was here painting the garage door so I haven't been able to open it (good thing I noticed them earlier and parked my car outside!) I'll try to do that tomorrow.
Entryway/Foyer
Stairs leading down to the garage (on right) and scrapbook room/wine cellar (!) on the left. Huge improvement from the urine-yellow and painted-over outlets! :)
Entry way with my fake tree thing. The blue colour is Behr's Blue Agave. The off-white is Glidden's Soft Ecru that we had mixed with Behr paint. We called it French Vanilla since it looks like the colour of vanilla ice cream. :) yum... We had quite a few Coldstone Creamery runs during our painting sessions! lol
Real plant at the bottom of the stairs!
More of the entry way - my overly superstitious mom always told me elephants should face the door, hence the elephant mirror facing the front door! That stick is one of hubby's kung fu spears... terrible feng shui having weapons by the door but whenever I move them he complains so I'll just have to deal!
Kitchen
The wall colour in the kitchen is the Soft Ecru that is in some of the other rooms in the house.
Dining Room
The dining room. We just got the new table as a 2nd anniversary present to ourselves ;) It's a bar-height table - we love it! The red paint (isn't that awesome? PITA to paint, though!) is Glidden's Drum Beat mixed with Behr paint.
Living Room
Living room. Again, a big improvement from the green/yellow/whatever nasty colour this was before we got our paws on the house!
Hubby's favourite toy :) We got ourselves a 40" Sony Bravia LCD TV (the full HD 1080P or whatever it is one...) I'm not much of a TV person, but I have to say, this was worth the money! It was our Christmas present to ourselves since hubby got a bit of a bonus at work.
Living room paint colours - the main walls are Behr's Brown Bread, the accent wall (the one with all those windows behind the big blue/white chair) is Blue Agave. All these colours look even prettier in person!
Bookcase thing we got at Ikea... I love the vaulted ceilings we have throughout this house!
Second Bedroom/Guest Room
Guest bedroom. You can't really tell, but the back wall (with the windows) is now a really pretty gray-blue colour. It's called Silent Tide (Behr). Goes really well with that comforter!
Master Bedroom
Master Bedroom. This was the only room which was a decent colour when we moved in so we haven't painted in here.
Third Bedroom/Office
Home office - this is my side of the office. Very cluttery! lol
Hubby's side of the office... I love his green computer! How fun is that thing?! :) Not so cluttery, but a bit of a mess.. lol ;)
We used our office closet to store office-related stuff. There's my little white MacBook :) I'd like to get a Mac desktop when my current computer bites the dust. The current one is hubby's and he's a PC guy so I'll have to see about that... he did buy me the laptop, though!
More office supplies on the other side of the closet (mostly my teacher/work junk!)
Backyard
Some photos of my hibiscus. I was going to cut this back, but it has been doing so well this year! I'll probably just trim it a bit when these latest flowers die.
Random purple plant. We have no idea what this is but it's so pretty. This also needs to be cut back quite a bit!
Some pretty pink lilies (I think...) right outside one of our bedroom windows. The one in the front (to the right of the photo) is as tall as I am - and I'm 5'7"!!
