HOME TOUR

Welcome to our home!
We purchased this house in 2009.  My goal has been to make our 'house into a home'.  It has almost been 10 years since we've purchased it and there have been so many updates!! Including the navy shutters we just did!! Update Your Shutters Easy & Cheap!

The Stonybrook House

Let's start with the latest things we've done in our home. Because I love them sooo much!! ❤️❤️❤️

We just finished the living room!  You can see all the projects at Our Living Room Transformation. Here's a before and after!

Here's the After!!

Living Room After

There are soooo many projects in that photo!  We shiplapped the wall, built the mantel, tore up the fireplace, remodeled the cabinets, built shelves, made ottomans, built the coffee table, and the major one was put in DIY plywood floors!!  Like I said, all the projects are in this post, Our Livingroom Transformation. 😍

Our laundry room was tight and cramped with so much wasted space!  Hubby and I drew up some plans and went for it!  Check it out! Laundry Room Reno

I painted and stenciled the floor and we even added a 'mud room' bench area too!

There are a few other things we need to finish in there...

The other recent reno was our downstairs powder room.  I had already painted and decorated it back in 2013, but didn't really LOVE it.  So, I had to do it over 😊

Here's a before, then the 1st after... now there's another after!

Now it looks like this! Sooo much better!! Check it out here: Powder Room Makeover

I did the stencil, shiplap, and even bent the steel for the shelves!  Love this room now!

Last year in 2018, I finally decorated our bedroom.  Before it's always been just an empty space.  I wish I would have never waited, because we both LOVE our bedroom now!

This room is so much more us! ❤️

Back in 2014 I could no longer take our sea of wood kitchen and build the cabinets to the ceiling and painted them all white!

And I have to say that 4 years later, they have held up exceptionally and we still are soooo happy with the white cabinets!

One of the first rooms we transformed was this "formal living room" that never was used...

We turned it into a billiard room! You can see how we installed the board and batten here...

Thankfully, we re-painted this room and got rid of the poopy tan color!!

The office was updated when we first moved in... why did I choose that room to start? Who knows?? But now it is on the list to renovate....   It's actually in the works now... scroll to see a progress photo!

  2. Thank you for stopping by Be Colorful Coastal. I wanted to reciprocate and stop by your blog too. What a fun new look. Mine is just a basic Typepad template. I am just learning right now. I saw you had a home tour and I so enjoyed that too. Inspiring. I can see you are not afraid of color either. Glad I stopped by. Have a great week.
