our new house - before and after pics

It's been so much fun decorating this house and making it our own. Here are some photos I took from before we moved in and then a few months after. We still have some updates to make, but a lot of it is finished. I love feeling settled!

BEFORE: Entryway

AFTER: Entryway. I love our li'l guard dog.

BEFORE: Formal Living Room

AFTER: Formal Living Room. We painted the room gray and the fireplace white to match the molding.

I tried to add pops of color to make up for the vast amounts of gray!

I got a canvas made of our wedding party.

BEFORE: Downstairs Hallway

AFTER: Downstairs Hallway. I decided to do a gallery wall with all momentos and pictures of our families.

Collage of concert, sports, moments from when we started dating

A professional photographer captured this picture of Matt proposing (accidentally!)

Our first date was to a concert at the Tabernacle. Matt saved the ticket and wrote on it about our date.

Matt's Uncle Dave was a model back in the 70s. He looks like the Marlboro Man.

BEFORE: Family Room

AFTER: Family Room. We would love to put built-ins with a window seat and maybe a desk.

The previous owners left this 110 inch screen with a projector. You can watch normal TV on it and movies.

BEFORE & AFTER: Kitchen. I would love to re-do the kitchen eventually by getting marble or granite countertops and painting the cabinets white.

BEFORE: Half Bath. I loved their bird themed bathroom.

AFTER: Half Bath. I painted just two walls in the half bath downstairs to give it  a little color.

This cool wall sticker was left by the previous owners.

BEFORE: Hallway

BEFORE & AFTER: Laundry Room/Linen Closet

AFTER: Master Bedroom. I want to paint the headboard white to match the molding.

I got this window at an antique market.

BEFORE: Master Bedroom

AFTER: Master Bedroom. I painted this brown dresser the same gray as the living room, with white knobs to give them some dimension.

BEFORE & AFTER: Master Bedroom. The previous owners had a TV in here. We don't want one in this room so we're trying to think of  something cool to make it. Maybe a mini fridge??

BEFORE & AFTER: Master Closet

BEFORE & AFTER: Master Bathroom

BEFORE: Guest Room

AFTER: Guest Room. My friends Katie and Kelly made us this Pinterest-inspired headboard as a wedding gift. 

I love our cozy little backyard.
