Among the many New Year's Resolutions I have on my list, is one to get our house just the way we want it. Everywhere we have lived since we got married, we have had big ideas of things we wanted to do, such as painting or buying specific furniture... but nothing has ever come of those aspirations. That is all going to change in 2009. Now that we have a house of our own, where we plan on being for quite some time, we are going to gussy it up!
We have decided that for each month of the year, we are going to pick one room and devote the whole month to painting, furnishing, and getting that room just the way we want it. That way we won't feel overwhelmed with having to spend so much money at one time to get the whole house done. Unfortunately I really have no idea what I want to do in most of the rooms, so this could be quite a challenge for me. I am just not the home decor type, so... we will see what happens!
To kick this home improvement project off, I have decided to do the girls room first. I do actually have a few ideas of what I want to happen in there, so I figured it would be a safe place to start. I had a big burst of ambition last week and started taping so I could do some painting, but didn't get to far before the enthusiasm was gone. I am hoping to get a second wind this weekend . With this new baby coming, I am way excited to get the room done and all girlied up!
I will be posting pictures each month as each room/project is in the works! Hopefully I will have some of the girls room to post soon.
