Our New Home

Well after the craziness of packing, moving, daughters wedding and other daughter being here from Wales for her sisters wedding, start of new school year and the unpacking and settling in, I finally got round to snapping pictures of our home.

There is still walls to have the accent paint painted and pieces of furniture to buy for our home as there's more space to fill but that will take time and money lol

But for now here's how it looks.










Front entry and living room that one day will hold a floor to ceiling book shelf and mudroom.


Family room.

All is missing is to mount the tv on the wall, hang drapes, window casings and crown molding - in time.



View from family room into kitchen/dining room, that we're still waiting for our table and chairs to be delivered.


Loving my huge kitchen! 



Girls Bedroom


I made a flag banner and the heart wall hanging. 


Added a few paper lanterns.
We're still waiting on the girls beds!



I made some heart canvas art work to match the heart wall hanging
Will post how I made that and the canvas art too.

You might notice the pink bench by the window. It now holds the girls dress up clothes
 Click  HERE to see how I made it.



In the playroom I used my art abilities, been a long time since I did this.


I used the extra flag banners I made, then painted a tree and two little girls
opposite side of the chalk board that I made when we lived in Madison, WI




Master Bedroom
I think this wall would look good with reclaimed wood feature wall too and drapes.




Master Bath
Still needs tile work and painting the naval color.



Spare room - waiting on the wrought iron queen bed.


Downstairs loo. 
This still needs a feature wall..maybe reclaimed wood, tile or paint
Watch this space.

House Update 2



So, our home is coming along swiftly - at last!

Exterior Paint color we chose - Parsnip
Accent color - Shaker Red
Stone work - Corondo Country Rubble Cabelas blend
Roof Shingles - Natural Wood
Trim Work - Toque White - SW 7003
Fascia and Soffit - Cameo
Garage - White with window panels on upper. (which is going to be installed today )


It looks way different from my last blog post - don't you think :)

We met with our builder yesterday and I heard the news I wanted to hear.

We'll get the keys by 21st July! 

Trumpets are sounding!

Over the 4th July weekend Jason and I with kids in tow ventured the sales and purchased a washer, dryer and fridge freezer for our new home. An expense that was needed as our brand spanking new home doesn't come with them.

Anyways here's our our home is shaping up. Today the garage door gets installed. 
Monday the sprinklers and sod goes in too and then its the small details of adding faucets, mirrors and vanity lighting.


You can see the our flooring under the paper cover. 
It's called French Oak - Carraway 28021L




Our counters!

Love the mitered edges - makes the whole counter look rather chunky.


Our kitchen Island being installed.


 

Looks great. Can't wait to see the prep sink and faucet installed

The Quartz is Shadow Grey

LOVE IT!


All our kitchen and bathroom cabinets are 

Maple, Mastercraft Lancaster - White




I'm in love with my farmhouse sink! Its Kohler WhiteHaven K-6489-0
Single bowl apron front


Loving the counters too :)


Our shower an bath surround were being installed while I was there yesterday :)

Ooooooo, so pretty.

Ecostone its's called Carerra
 and on the shower floor we chose
Bliss Iceland 5/8th with frost grout.

The Euro glass doors will be installed too 



Master bath loo.

Will be painting the walls a naval blue once we move in.


Main Bathroom.

All it needs is vanity lights and mirror and towel rail.

Then just a shower rail and curtain

PLUS a good clean! 
Including all the house too :)



We choose Sherwin Williams Repose Grey - SW 7015
 for the Walls.

And Extra White - SW 7006 for all the doors and trim work.



The railing is Sherwin Williams - Black of Night - SW 6993

We will be painting accent Walls in the dining, power room, master bathroom, loft and entryway in
Sherwin Williams - Naval color once we move in.
