Curb Appeal

This one will be pretty short and sweet- and the first of many before/during/after posts about our new house.

Kyle and I went under contract to build our new house on December 17, 2013, closed on April 17th, 2014 and have been working hard to make this house our home ever since.  In the last 5-ish months we have installed a fence for the girls, put hardware on all our cabinets, had Kyle’s pool table installed,  hung curtains, wine glass holders, & shelves, installed a new kitchen faucet, built countless pieces of Ikea furniture- seriously the list goes on and on.  We’ve undertaken quite a few projects, and we have finally COMPLETED one of them!  (the others seem to be neverending…)  Here are before and after pictures of my favorite home project so far!

Before

Total was about $200+ the cost of a few plants. Not too shabby for what I feel like is a pretty big transformation!  We painted the door black, added a little vinyl "Hello" sticker, some house numbers, and shutters (the sod was done by our builders and included in the cost of the house.)
After!
 
I absolutely love what the shutters have done for the house.  I feel like it’s a total face lift.  (Thank you to my super handy husband who spent the afternoon on our roof!)

Next on the list is finishing the laundry room remodel, tile backspash in the kitchen, our paver patio/fire pit in the backyard (we’re not doing this one ourselves, this has been contracted out and should be complete in a couple of weeks).  I’ll try to post more before/during/after pictures as we start crossing things off the list!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend
