Building our Home: January 2008

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Thursday, January 24, 2008. A Tale of Two Sofas. So we got gift cards to JC Penney for Christmas. Brad and I went up there a couple of days after Christmas and were disappointed to see that our couch, while still on sale, was $100 more than it had been before Christmas. Since the gift cards didn't expire, we decided we would wait until the sofa went back down to the price we originally thought we'd end up paying. I am excited to get our new sofas. Here's the floor plan arrangement we are considering ...

Building our Home: Downstairs Bathroom

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2008/05/downstairs-bathroom.html

Saturday, May 17, 2008. I have a theme or whatever, finally! Hopefully soon we'll get the whole bathroom painted. Here's an album with the fun stuff I got, as well as bad representations of the paint colors. The lighting in the bathroom is all goofy. There are also some photos of the only thing I've managed to actually decorate so far! Posted by Ladybug at 8:40 PM. Links and Our Other Blogs. 366 Days of Photos. See my complete profile.

Building our Home: Clean Sweep!

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2008/01/clean-sweep.html

Saturday, January 12, 2008. We decided a few weeks ago that today would be the day we were going to get our master bedroom, bathroom, and closet all in order the way we want it, the way we would have done it the day/weekend/week we moved in had we had the time. I booked a babysitter through Seeking Sitters. Anyway, we had a sitter to entertain Nyssa while we worked uninterrupted in our room. It took us a few hours to find homes for everything, but we did it and everything feels SOOOOOO much better! I bet...

Building our Home: Craft Room

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2008/02/craft-room.html

Tuesday, February 19, 2008. So this weekend Brad moved all of the stuff out of the craft room and into my photography studio room, and then moved the craft room furniture into the room so that I could begin unpacking all of my stuff and get it put away. This is what it looked like before he started:. And what it looked like once he was done, before he moved the craft room furniture in:. These first two photos are post-furniture but before I started dragging stuff out of boxes. Posted by Ladybug at 8:30 PM.

Building our Home: House Update

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2008/04/house-update.html

Saturday, April 5, 2008. I haven't really updated because there hasn't been much to talk about. But today, Brad, his dad, and two of his brothers accomplished a HUGE task - they put down flooring in our walk-in attic! We have probably 300 square feet of storage space in our attic now. Remember way back when our house was being built and we wanted them to move the furnace over to the right of the attic instead of in the dead center of it? In other news, I found bar stools yesterday! The round foot rest pa...

Building our Home: May 2007

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html

Monday, May 21, 2007. There's a SOLD sign in our lot! I got price quotes from our design consultant today for upgrading to granite and putting wood flooring in the game room. I decided I didn't want granite bad enough to pay the difference, and we'll be happy enough with the solid surface countertops. Tomorrow we are going to the design center to look around and talk about choices. Our final meeting with the design consultant is June 5, I think. Need to check my calendar to be sure!

Building our Home: February 2008

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html

Tuesday, February 19, 2008. See why I almost didn't sit on it? The color is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO not my style! I failed to get a photo of the nice pecan swatch. Oh, well.hopefully sooner than later I will have our actual sofas in our living room to show you instead! Posted by Ladybug at 9:31 PM. We've been saying we aren't going to do any painting or decorating until we're all unpacked, but I cheated while at Hobby Lobby today and bought the following stuff:.

Building our Home: Covered in Whole Wheat

http://wisemanbuilds.blogspot.com/2008/06/covered-in-whole-wheat.html

Monday, June 30, 2008. Covered in Whole Wheat. I was, on Saturday.and now the study is! Brad's step-mom came over Saturday morning and the two of us painted the room with Sherwin Williams' whole wheat super paint in a satin/eggshell finish. It took two coats and 2.5 gallons of paint. I've since ordered draperies in the sapphire color from Overstock.com:. One down, too many more to go. Posted by Ladybug at 9:04 PM. Links and Our Other Blogs. 366 Days of Photos.
