Happy 2nd Anniversary House

Okay, so I'm a bit late with this. It was actually the 8th of August but not to worry. We have been here for 2 years now. I was looking around on the local real estate website and found they now show the photos from past sales. Sometimes progress seems so slow so it's nice to go back and see where you started. Here's just one sample of what we saw when we first inspected the place...

Blogger has made this purple less intense than it was! And you can't see the splotches on the carpet. It was a good day, the day we painted this room and replaced the carpet!

Moving on. Last year I posted a wishlist of sorts so I thought I'd check our progress...

• New fence - Lots of talking, no action!
• Painted lounge room + kitchen - Done
• Floating sideboard on lounge entrance wall - Meh, not so enamoured by this idea anymore
• Paint the rest of the doors - Ha! Maybe one day! I'll let you know on the 3rd anniversary!
• Floorboards sand and polish - Chose to carpet rooms but main living/dining/hall still need attention.
• Finish the spa area - in progress again. The spa is in and usable, just not pretty.
• Bathroom/laundry reno - too big to comprehend at this point but I have collected lots of lovely inspiration pictures on Pinterest !
• Deck out the front - Changed to paving and is in progress
• Vegie garden - Done
• Chook shed - Done

I'm only going to add two things to this list for the next year.

• Re-hang pictures that have been down since painting (in January)
• Get old wardrobe doors back on or buy and hang new ones (they have been off since February)

Updates on the 'in progress' projects are on the way!
