If you follow along on Facebook, you know I am in the heart of some serious house projects. Why, I have no idea! The truth of the matter is that I spend way more time decorating the shop, rough luxe, and my design clients' houses than I do on my own, BUT I do go through phases.
For example, I just swapped out my chevron rug that was layered on sisal in the living room for a cowhide rug. I love to move rugs around in my house; to me, rugs can really make the room, so it’s the 1st thing I usually change, then pillows & throws (pictures to come)
Our main focus lately has been the outside, so this weekend we planted a tree and a few shrubs, spread tons of mulch, and painted the exterior in the backyard. The next big thing will be shutters, ugh, who knew they could be so expensive.
Here are a few fun pictures of the exterior transformation of our house over the last 3 years. The images go from left to right in order if it isn’t obvious!
We have done the following so far to make an impact on the front of the house:
- Tore off the port-o-potty, as we like to call it
- Painted the front door red
- Installed Fypon trim around the door opening (we ordered it online, really easy!)
- Replaced the front door
- Had a new sidewalk installed
- Landscaping of the front of the house
Next on the list … (it never ends!)
- New shutters for the 4 windows in the front of the house
- Installing hardy plank
