And now comes the reward....

Gorgeous images for you....







After ALL of the never-ending painting NOW my sweet friends
the fun begins!!!

We've finished painting everything but the bathrooms....
what an amazing accomplishment!!!!
(thank you so much to my precious sons!)
I can handle painting the bathrooms myself and
also want to paint the laundry room as well.

We're finally ready to start moving in....
and I'm cleaning everything like a crazy woman :)
Washing curtains, china, pottery....
good grief and I haven't even GOTTEN to the studio.


Soooo, Sunday we started moving in the dining room furniture ~



And the china hutch I painted a few years back
has a new home on the large wall opposite the kitchen ~



Thank you so much for joining me on my little farmhouse makeover journey!!!!

Have a beautiful Monday dear friends ~
hugs and love,
Dawn

Hi my very tired friend Dawn. Is the adrenaline still flowing or are you completely exhausted yet? I'd love it if someone would take everything out of my house and clean it top to bottom and make it nice and fresh. I'm glad your sons have been such a big help. What a blessing they are. You're dining rooms already starting to look like home.

~♥ OMGOSH SWEETIE...Have you been busy or what? that is really some fall cleaning! When we paint a room, it seems like a maaajor ordeal & then you git into the sorting of ~ do I really need this much stuff? Every time we moved I downsized... think we need to move agin... haha! Thank goodness for the booths for my 'I'm tired of this' stuff!
I truly am soo happy for you & once you git more things moved in your lil' house will be your home... it will be soo much fun *tweeking* it later once you are in there for awhile with your feathered gathered touch!
A coat of paint just seems to 'clean' everything & then it seems more like 'yours'. Hope you get done with the bathrooms & can "play" house soon...love how everything is looking, thanx for sharing!
loveya with hugs & blessings, vikki xoxoxo ♥~

Dawn,

Check out my "baby" blog. I'm still trying to learn how to upload "gadgets" ad make sidebars, etc....but I finally have a spot at least. Now I can share my little projects with the rest of the blogger world. One problem is, I forget to take the "before" pictures...until after the project is done....like I said..I'm a "baby blogger" but an excited one!

sharong said...

Thank you so much for all the beautiful prints you give us.

Lorraine said...

I can feel your excitement Dawn! Looking good girl....
