House progress

We've been our house for 2 months now and though our "to-do" list is still much longer than our "done" list, we've made some good progress in the living room, dining room, and extra bedrooms. The biggest change we made was refinishing our hardwood floors. We had hoped to paint right away too, but alas time has gotten away from us and we have yet to break out a brush. We'll get there eventually.

For now here are some progress pictures of 4 rooms in our place:

Living Room Before


Living Room Progress (still to-do: paint, hang pictures)



(curtains, friendship balls hanging in the living room, and extra/accent chairs in the dining room)

Dining Room Before


Dining Room Progress (still to-do: paint, hang pictures and clock)




Guest Bed/Laundry Before


Guest Bed/Laundry Progress (still to-do: paint, buy bed frame)




Front Bed Before


Front Bed Progress (still do-do: paint, hang pictures, get headboards for the beds, get a dresser)






Any suggestions for paint colors? We already bought gray for the main floor, but now are thinking that we might just paint the one "accent wall" (currently peach) to match the rest of the walls (taupe). What about the bedrooms?
