project: house to home.

Jun 11, 2012

This is our new place. It needs some work.
I am putting my pride aside in order to show you the BEFORES before I have the AFTERS, because...
I would like you to come along for the ride.

If you have seen my Pinterest, you know how much I love a warm + cozy looking home.
Cottage.
That's what I am shooting for.

I know that this house isn't exactly right out of a Jane Austen novel, but I do believe that being creative can bring about some extraordinary results.

Being on a tight budget means that we will have to tackle one project at a time.
It will require a lot of patience
(which I am currently running low on. Wallpaper, I don't like you. Not one bit).

Regardless, I am so looking forward to making this place a home.
Once it is all completed I will sit back, sigh & smile. I will appreciate all of our hard work, because
we will have made it our own.


I love home design.
Love it.
I just hope that my love for it = I can design (haha).

I am hoping that this will serve as inspiration for you if you are planning on doing some work on your home as well!


Oh.
so.
much.
to.
do.
