DIY HOME OFFICE UPDATE
September 9, 2014
I turned our rarely used formal dining room into my new home office and lounge (you can click here to see the before and after photos of the 2013 $150 dining room update). It came a looong way from the ugly swirl wallpaper. 🙂
Well, we put the finishing touch on the office this weekend by hanging the new pendant light. Yay!
Now onto the photos…
Here’s the before shot of our updated dining room:
I really liked this updated space, but am so happy that it’s actually being used now. I’m also very happy that a lot of the dining room decor worked in the office (wall shelves, buffet, sunburst, curtains, other mirror).
BONUS: I didn’t have to paint…yay!
Here are the after shots of the converted office (please ignore the beautiful baby gates):
I turned a crystal lazy susan handed down from my great grandma into a unique office organizer. |

HALF BATHROOM BEFORE & AFTER (A $15 update)
See the complete blog post here.
Guest room #1:
I painted the builder grade oak bathroom cabinets and trim in Lunar Light, but we ended up running out of time to remove the carpet and tile the jack and jill bath. It is what it is I guess.
Guest room #2 (aka the man room):
Not sure why we keep the iron in here. Ted is the only one who irons, so I guess it makes sense where it is, ha. |
Other home updates:
+ Painted exterior
+ Tiled master bath
This house is stunning! Did you ever hire other people to help you as you remodeled- such as a plumber during your kitchen and bathroom remodel?
Um… wow. You're amazing!
Acabo de encontrar tu blog. Los cambios en tu casa han sido geniales! Me encanta todo! Enhorabuena y disfruta de tu hogar.

Gracias!!! 😀
I absolutely love your refurbishings… so creative, so clean and personal!!! I love your kitchen (it does look totally renovated!!) and your guest bathroom… I wish I was as creative as you are!
Oh! and I also love your haircolor and Vivian's of course!!! 🙂
Oh wow, thank you Mariana!!!! 😀
Wow, I like your blog. I have no clue how you did the layout though! http://thenewdaybringshope.blogspot.com/ Clearly that is not a skill I have! My husband and I are buying a house that is going to be a big project to remodel and your kitchen remodel was great so we are hoping to have great results on a small budget like you did!
Beautiful! I love that kitchen – WOW!! Also totally in love with your clever spray-paint projects!
