The end of the week is almost here 🙌
I'm not sure why, but this four day school week has been killer!
But we aren't here to talk about that today!
It's time for...
Make sure you check out my home renovation and inspiration posts below!
Now let's get on with a little house update!
Paint is on the walls!
We are using Sherwin Williams Repose Gray throughout the entire house except for X's room and the master bedroom.
You will notice a theme with the colors in our house.
Almost everything changes based on the light and angle you are looking at it.
Our wall color, our floors, the carpeting, etc.
Next up is X's room.
We had a hard time picking out what red would look best, but in the end I think it turned out exactly what we were envisioning.
This is called Heartthrob and honestly is a little bright when you look at the swatch, but in the room it is perfect!
We looked at so many darker and deeper reds, but they just looked brown once we tested them in the space.
And X's reaction to his room was exactly what I wanted to see!
He loves it!
Of course the room I'm most excited about is our master bedroom!
It is the black room of my dreams!
We used Tricorn Black and it is dreamy 🖤
The ceiling is white throughout the entire house and we will have the same light/medium gray-beige carpet in the bedrooms.
They were working on priming our trim as well.
This is just one rack!
There was another rack behind me that was even bigger!!
Our interior doors finally arrived and they are gorgeous!
I wanted a glimpse at what the pantry door would look like, so Mic held it up for me ;)
It is backwards, but I definitely loved the look of all the glass in the door.
While those raw doors were gorgeous, the stained, inked and sealed doors are absolutely amazing!
Even though they are black, you can still see the knots and grain.
They really turned out beautiful!
Lots of other little things have or are happening at the house now as well.
Tile work, stair railings/posts/spindles, painting of trim, etc.
Of course some things are on hold due to some vendors being shutdown during this time :/
But it will all work out and come together when it was meant to :)
Talk about making a huge difference!
It looks like a house now 🙌🙌🙌
And remember how I said a lot of the colors we are using change based on the light and angle?
Well our siding is no different!
It is a gray/brown color so it literally changes as you drive up the driveway and look at it!
The old section still needs to be painted and new siding applied, but overall I love it!
There is still a lot to do, but I am absolutely loving how everything is turning out.
Building/renovating your home is no joke.
Make that a 100% custom build and it is like nothing you have ever experienced!
Thanks for stopping by today!

It looks great!!!! Love the black ❤️
ReplyDeleteThank you!! It is so exciting watching it come together!
DeleteWe built our house from the ground up... it must be 17 years by now and I can still remember watching the details. We also pitched in to do a lot of it ourselves; I painted all the rooms, tiled & grouted the floors, etc. It was a learning experience for sure and it's funny how much differently I'd do it now. But I do not want to live through renovations. Your house looks beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat is awesome! We did a lot of the work ourselves when we remodeled our old house and it was fun, but took forever since we have our business. This time we knew we had to hire out for the building and such because we just don't normally have the time. Since every little thing is custom, we have still had our hands in it all ☺️
