So Long & So Long

It has been awhile since I have been able to tell the tale of my Charmer. Luckily I have a week off and nothing to do but blog about it! So long, my Vintage Charmer has come so long since my last post! I have so many exciting details and photos to share. I'll start with everything I have done so far to my home:

1: Re-painted my bedroom
2: Re-painted the living room
3. Re-painted the kitchen
4. Re-did the horrid yellow countertop
5. Put up a neat backsplash
6. Got the couch through the front door (major accomplishment!)
7. Caulked the entire bathroom
8. Caulked the baseboards
9: Installed a new kitchen light fixture
10. Bought an adorable small, round metal kitchen table + matching chairs



Ok, enough of that. Now for some photos!

HERE IS WHAT I LEARNED:

If you are renovating or remodeling your home I suggest you start and finish your bedroom first. Why? So many reasons why! First, if I did not have what I call "my sanctuary" to relax and renew myself in after a long day of working on my home and I shouldn't forget to mention having no A.C (it is fixed now) + dealing with unforeseen unfortunate events that ALWAYS arise in projects like these, I honestly do not know if I could have had the energy to complete the rest of my home. It was and still is so inspirational to wake up in the morning and be excited to tackle the next disaster waiting. My bedroom came out perfect for me! The first thing I see when I open my eyes in the morning is the sun shining though the windows and nature and of course the beautiful paint dressing my walls. Not boxes and boxes of stuff waiting to be put away or an ugly out-dated kitchen in need of a make-over! Also, the result of my bedroom gave me the umph + hope + strength to want to tackle the rest, making it just as charming!
