Don't stop posting photos- they are great to see.
What an improvement. The kitchen and the living areas look so good.
With the improvement in the real estate market and all your hard work you should make a nice profit on this house. More money to spend on the next

Welldone Elements You really changed that living area and kitchen into somethink more liveable and homely. I honestly dont know what peoples think when they go thoses crazy bright colours, I really love neutral colours.

Anywho, Well-done

Here is another before and after pic of our dining area.....
You can see we have a very specific style in our furniture and 7 years ago when we bought it all we thought everything had to match
This time around we are giving our house more personality with the furniture not just the bricks and mortar. So the dining table will go up for sale before we move

What a nice feature wall colour in your dining room Elements. I like your style. So glad to see before and after photos. I can't believe you are renovating and building at the same time. It will be so nice to have furniture ready to go into the house you are building. It's amazing to see how things change in interior design over the years and I am sure we will see new trends in years to come.

I love your dining room Elements. Whoever buys this house is going to be so lucky.
I recently was looking at some photos of our house in the early 90's with the whole country floral look- OMG what was I thinking
