Randomness about my home and what I want for it.

I live in an old farm house that my grandpa was raised in.  It is a work in progress and I think it will always be that way.  2 years ago (with the help of my awesome brother in law) we redid our kitchen, what a nightmare!  It was totally worth it though because it turned out wonderful! 

My house after a lot of snow!


Here is our before kitchen picture (we had already started demo though)



Look what we found...a chimney! 



windows boarded up.



Upper cabinets going in.



Lowers



Countertops & tears



Painting the dining room



Artwork on the dining room walls




My husband also tackled Gavin's room.  You have to walk through his room to get to the rest of the house.  There is not a lot of room because of that so we he built a loft bed (excuse the mess, we were still trying to organize and we still need to paint).



Next was the living room.  We painted it an olive green color and I'm hanging a collage of pictures (that I've taken around the farm) behind the couch (and we got new couches)!  We found an awesome old mirror and Justin hung it up over the fireplace.  Now he working on building me a cabinet for my record player and records (I need to get rid of the blue fan too).



This though...I saw in a magazine and I want one wall in the living room to look like this.  Old boards on the wall, actually I think it would be awesome to tear down the Sheetrock and just have the ship lap exposed (like the pictures from the kitchen remodel). This picture was in the Nov 2010 D Home magazine.
