After

It's done! We have new carpet and tile, and now we're just putting things back where they're supposed to be. Here are some after pictures of the downstairs and my room. The guest room, Natalie's room, and the hall bathroom upstairs are not quite presentable yet, but I'll post pictures as soon as they are.

View from the kitchen. Note the added entry area. That used to be carpeted.
Living room decorated for Halloween.
Fireplace. The tile used to be stark white. I plan on painting the mantle craft white to match the window trim.
Dining room. See the cat's claw sharpener? I hope she continues to use that and not my new carpet!
Piano decorated for Halloween.

View into the kitchen from the front door.
My new kitchen floor!
Notice that the tile connects from the kitchen to the bar area. That used to be carpeted.
Up the new "burnished mahogany" stairs. So much better than blue!
My bathroom.
My bedroom. Still needs redecorating, but at least the carpet is new!

I hope you've enjoyed this little tour. Stay tuned for pictures of the new and improved guest room.

Doesn't it feel great to get a little face lift on your house? It looks great!

Wow...I love it. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it. Your house is so darling and cottage-like from the outside, and now it's pretty much all updated on the inside...I love your decorating, it's so homey and warm. Congrats, what fun!

Nice! I am thinking about doing my hallway with the kid friendly wood. Where did you find your guys to install it at? It looks great.
