Nasty carpet... we're not quite sure what those stains are. eewww. The green rug hid that well.

Tearing down the dry wall so we could put it back up.. (not as fun as it sounds!)
Vacuuming :)

ReplyDeleteps-I'm thrilled you have a blog to see this and that you took copious photos that make me really feel like I was there for the transformation, resulting in my understanding the magnitude of this remodel.
double ps-bamboo flooring is hot.
Ok seriously....A-MAZ-ING!!! I totally love it! It's like a work of art! How fun. I'm jealous of the bamboo, I wanted that in my house. You guys are remodeling geniuses! :)
ReplyDeleteHoly cow.. Looks Amazing!!! Good job.
ReplyDeleteWow, It is beautiful!! We can hardly wait to see it. We love the arrangement over the fireplace and the opposite short wall. The colors are wonderful. You are hard working kids. You are not leaving anything for us to do. The floor is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou didn't show all of the floor repair work that you did. It is beautiful, you have done a great job.
Taryn, what hippie friends? I assume you are talking about me! It looks great! I want to come visit!
ReplyDeleteWow that is so amazing! It looks so good and I can't believe you decorated it all yourself. . .you should do my house when I have one (in like 10 years). I hope you guys are having fun!

LOVE the new blog and LOVE the new living room! The fireplace and flooring is awesome! I am so impressed at your remodeling skills. I can't wait to see it in person!
ReplyDeleteAll I can say is WOW, I can't think of any better words. You guys are amazing. It looks wonderful. I am so impressed that you did it all yourself. Crazy. Enjoy the first year of dental school, it only gets worse! :) well it's not really that bad, but it does get more stressful. We've only got one more year thank goodness! I can't wait. I'm so glad you started a blog, love it!
ReplyDeleteYou guys are so talented! It took us 2 weeks just to unpack our suitcases much less remodle a house in less time. I love it. We just signed the papers and will be building our house, and we have to decide on all of the tile, counters, etc in the next few weeks so I will be coming to you for advice!!
ReplyDeleteReally amazing! Way to go! That is a huge change. You have really out done yourselves on this one. You furniture looks great! It's nice to have room for everything. :)
ReplyDeleteThat looks soooo amazing!! We LOVE it!!
ReplyDeleteI guess your family, Taryn, are the only ones who don't know how to blog. Again, as I said on the phone. We are proud at all you have done. It is just beautiful and I am so impressed with all you do and have done. I can't wait to see it in person. I don't know where you learned to be so talented. Love you guys.
ReplyDeleteAre you guys for hire?! This is incredible! I am so impressed. That doesn't exactly look like your average dental school couple's place. And it makes for a great way to start your blog! I am completely blog-addicted and will be checking in on you guys from now on. You can see us (okay, mostly Ethan & Luke) at bollardfamily.blogspot.com.
ReplyDeleteoh. my. goodness. your house is beautiful, all that hard work paid off, you guys rock!!
