Paint! Paint! Paint!

Well, the entire house has been painted!  All 22 gallons!  There is a primer and coat on the ceiling, primer and coat on the walls,  and a primmer and 2 coats on the trim and the doors. It was a stretch in the end but now it is done!  

 

 

 

The Evolution of a Bedroom

 

I have posted my bedroom on HGTV rate my space before.  Here is what it looked like in picture 1.  I just got the red comforter for Christmas.  It turns out it was not very comfortable.    It received 2.8 stars.  Then I changed it to picture 2 .  This room only received 2.3 stars.  Even though it did not look it in the picture, I felt more relaxed in this room.  The furniture in these pictures were all given to us.  When I felt it was time I bought our own furniture.  This is the bedroom furniture that will be coming to the house.  The last is picture 3.x  I bought a new bed and side tables.  They bed I found online and asked a local store if they will let me purchase it for the same price and they said yes!  They even delivered the bed and set it up for free!  The side tables are from target.  I was thinking about getting a single piece of granite and adding it to the top of each table.  

What will the bedroom look like at the house?  We will see!

Flooring

We are trying to figure out the flooring for the house.  We would like to go with a laminate.  This way we can keep it clean, and do not have to worry about the dog.  We would prefer to have laminate floors on the entire first and second floor.  This issue with this scenario is then we would have to do the staircase.  What do you think?  Should we just have carpet in the three bedrooms, upstairs hallways and stairs?  Should we do laminate throughout?
