Previous house

This is our previous house where we lived for four years. Come on, I’ll show you around.

Dining room

Dining room with white walls oversized drum pendant and Eames chairs with rug as art

It ended up being a two-year process, but my dining room is now white and bright with a large table and kid-friendly chairs. Get the details here.

I found that the most affordable option for art on this large wall was a rug. See how I hung it here.

Kid’s hallway

Hallway wallpapered with frames of old family photos

I’ve practically wallpapered our hallway with family photos, both young and very old. I even went up over the door frames and into the corners. Pre-made moulding frames and a simple chair rail provide a boundary and ending point.
