Well, as most of you know, we're remodeling. I just thought I'd share a few pictures of how lovely and cozy my home is right now. :rolleyes: As you can kinda sorta see, we're doing everything in a tan color. We're redoing our kitchen cabinets, baseboards, doors, and window sills in a white to offset the tan.

Half of my living room:

The other half of my living room:

Part of my kitchen:

This thing rocks. Some people make fun of it because it is straight out of the 60's, but I love it! Mike had suggested doing a fish tank or fountain in it's place, but I won't ever get rid of it.

Tonya, just keep telling yourself "it's going to look great when it's finished." You can tell already!

I love that "thing" too!! I didn't think it was from the 60s so much as it looked very Morrocan, which is very chic these days. Your friends are obviously SO out of the loop. ;):p :rolleyes:

I never thought of that! Next time people make fun of it I'll say "Oh, you are so uncultured. I had that exported from Morocco." ;)

Well, it looks like it's going to be really nice. It would be difficult to live like that but I'm sure it will be worth it.

Tonya,

I can relate to your remodelling ......... my darling hubbie ripped up the carpets in our house to see WHAT is underneath ....... :rolleyes: . So far, still ripped up ....

We "remodelled" the backyard .............. does that count? Hubbie has a mini-digger and proceeded to practice in our backyard .... mud everywhere, no grass, huge piles of dirt under the washing line, looked like a construction site ............ and then I lost my temper.

Now looking BEAUTIFUL ............ but still no grass!

I don't know I'll do if we start the house ............. Thank doG, the mini digger won't get in the door!!!!!

P.S. I hope you don't mind me posting pics in YOUR cozy home thread?

Of course I don't mind the pics! It gives me inspiration. Lol. I like the walkway! That's our next project. It's dirt between the dog run and back door, so the dogs track mud into the house.

Great pics - and it will all be worth it when it's over!!!

I am starting to decorate in January, so I post my "decorating" pics then - it isnt going to be easy painting my walls - the walls are 12ft high, so I will probably need to hire scaffolding!
