Since my last post was about where we started with this house, I thought I would share a few pictures from around the house as things presently stand. It takes effort to get the house photo ready!! After I wrote that last post, I got to cleaning and hired my crew who does ‘Twoonie Tasks’ to get the house ready to take pictures to share.
What is a Twoonie Task you ask? Just the most genius thing I ever thought of, that’s all. I yard sale, I drag my girls along who like to shop, too. So, I decided they need to earn yard sale money, so I invented Twoonie Tasks – small jobs that are worth $2 to me to NOT have to do them myself. Such as cleaning toilets, sinks or vacuuming. I’ll gladly pay my children to do them. 🙂 And then they are responsible for having spending money for yard sales. See? Genius, I tell you!
But that’s not really where I was going with this!! I get distracted. Often. House. Pictures. Tidy. Right……that’s where I was. I love this house and how things are coming together. Things change and develop and pieces get added, plants get moved around and so on.
So – presently – the house looks like this:
The Living Room
{ The cabinet in the right hand corner is new to us!! I’m excited to get it painted up with some Miss Mustard Seed Milk Paint and properly decorated and dressed! I have to remove the screws in the wall above it and re-hang some artwork, too. And find homes for a few nests, too……sheesh, it never ends….which I love about decorating my home!! }

My Favorite Gallery Wall
My hope is over the next week to document a bit more to show you. I love having pictures of the house and how things currently are.
I was looking at pictures of our last place HERE and I love how it looks and I know over time our new house will come together and become a cohesive place, too. Or maybe it is now? Hard for me to know – I see it through my own eyes and so I can’t tell – so hard to be objective for your own space!! And maybe I feel like the old space is more cohesive because it was smaller and I’m not used to having more wall space and open areas?
Anyway – I hope you enjoy this mini tour, with more to come!
To be continued,
