House-Shape

Another before pic, this time of the office/second bedroom.

This particular room is fairly original in form - the walls, shades and even rug are from the previous owners. (Yes, I bought again...apparently my most recent collection is coming in the form of real estate.)

Two after pictures...

This is more of an interim "after" picture for a couple of reasons. First, because after finishing here,  I moved on to the living and dining rooms and much of the stuff in there ended up in here - yarn and fabric bins, that sort of thing.  Not quite out of sight out of mind, but at least not out in a public room. Second, They didn't bring all my stuff. The rest of it, including my big green chest and a sofa table that I think will both end up in here won't show up until probably July since after today I'm going to be unavailable to take delivery.

Bedroom, nearly final iteration. This room had a lot of adjustments made thanks to my mom. It started out a weird green/khaki color that I hated. I had already ordered this blue and white bedroom set, and had it sent to my mom, so she took a pillow sham and found the perfect paint color. She had the place painted out and the shades made while I was on my last leg of the deployment. (Pretty amazing, huh?) I finally have the blue bedroom of my dreams AND blackout shades which are a wonderful thing.

The kitchen, bathroom, dining and living rooms are all pretty much acceptable, but won't be done for a long time since also not included in my shipment were the majority of my bookshelves. Right now the entryway is stacked about three feet deep in books...

Only three feet deep? Are you sure that you have enough books? Shouldn't it be at least 4 if not 5 feet deep and stacked to the ceiling goes without mention.

Congrats on the beautiful bedroom.

I can't wait tell hubby gets a permanent job somewhere and we can buy a house again.
