Here’s where we’re at:
-
Add picture frame moulding below the chair rail -
Add crown molding
-
Paint ceiling -
Switch out chandelier -
Take hutch off the sideboard -
New seating (add a bench, different head chairs, make new slipcovers???)
-
Add art
There has been small change like the new paint, rearranged gallery wall on the stairs (sorry you can’t see it in the photo). But, the major changes didn’t happen.
-
Add picture frame moulding up the stairs
-
Add to and update the gallery wall
-
And, if a dream can come true, ripping up the carpet
-
Try to convince my husband to let me switch up his matchy, matchy bachelor furniture set. Ugh… wish me luck
-
Re-paint in a gray tone
-
Add crown molding
-
Add interest to headboard wall (thinking more picture frame molding painted the same color as the wall)
-
Do something about the ugly ceiling fan lights
-
New art
-
Update bedding
-
Add in some stinking accessories already!
– BEFORE –
– AFTER –
Izzy’s room is the one room on the list where everything got done. Wahoo!!! Ok, doesn’t hurt that it was the first project that got tackled. But I’m gonna take a win when I can!
-
Paint -
Upholstered headboard -
Reading nook -
Drapes & bedding -
Dresser & nightstand
So here’s the part where I try to explain why I didn’t get everything done on my list. Plain and simple, I ran outta juice. Getting pregnant can poop and girl out. But I did decide to repaint the entire main floor, stairway, and upstairs hall.
And created a nursery for our new addition, Samuel.
I’m working on putting together this year’s home resolutions. Seeing as how we’re done adding to the family, I’ll have to come up with another excuse for why I might not complete them 😉
Do you guys make resolutions for the home? If so, how did you do?

Newesti love everything you have done, especially the nursery and izzy's room! so so adorable! you have such great style! and i can't wait to see the master evolve, but take your time. you did just have a baby… so you are off the hook. 😉
Your home is so beautiful! Izzy's room is super adorable and I love the downstairs paint color! Awesome job!
Shelley…I love the changes you made. And, you had a baby, which makes it all the more impressive. Happy 2013! I love the idea of house resolutions…hmmm, I might have to make a few myself.
You did a LOT while being pregnant girlie – you deserve a standing ovation!! I need to go back to my 2012 list post and see how I did, but I'm kinda sceered. I don't have as great of an excuse. 😉
I'm purgin' like a crazy person and I'm super excited to work on house things too. Who needs self-improvement when you can paint walls! 🙂
Hi Shelley, Love the paint colors in all the rooms! Do you have a list of these colors? Thanks a bunch!
I love the bedroom pic. I totally scrolled up and down a couple times. Good luck on the furniture. My only resolution has to been to keep it semi clean! You are a rock star. When we get a new house I will keep a resolution list.
I'm really impressed with your writing talents and also with the format to your blog. Is that this a paid subject or did you modify it your self? Anyway stay up the nice high quality writing, it is rare to peer a nice blog like this one today..
