What we have done already:
- Moved a chandelier that was in the front living room to the dining room
- Painted the chandeliers silver instead of gold
- Exposed an old window by removing the sheet rock
What we love:
- The arch
- The crown molding
- Tall ceilings (we love this in every room)
- The chandeliers
- The windows
- The china cabinet
What we plan on fixing/changing:
- Frame the newly exposed window.
- Replace the two windows on the east wall.
- The floors. We are going to do a dark hardwood or laminate floor. We are still on the fence about what to get. We love hardwood floors, but laminate floors seem to be a bit more kid friendly.
- Paint the walls
- Paint the ceiling
- Paint all the trim
- Install central air and remove the swamp cooler vent
- Shift the stairs into the dining room so that you do not bump your head on the way downstairs.
- Replace the sconce lighting by the china cabinet.
- Paint the china cabinet
- Replace the two broken/missing glass panes on the china cabinet
- Paint the front door
Wow! That newly exposed window really does add soooo much light. Beautiful:)
