Our First Home!

After 8 years of moving, Charleston has won us over. As if 2015 hadn't been good enough to us yet, we're adding the purchase of our very first home to the list.

We're so excited for the new memories we're going to make in this place. I can't wait until Rowan can play tee-ball in the back yard or to watch him and Ruby play together.

I snapped a few photos of the interior so you can see what we're working with. This house is very builder-grade (most of the houses are in our little 'burb... womp womp) but I definitely see some spaces that I can tackle DIY-style.

Like those black appliances? This kitchen is brown and tan all over. Definitely going away at some point. But hey, I got my gas stove! 

For sure adding a fireplace between those windows.  

DIY wainscoting? Yes, please.

It's not a major reno, but the walls need some paint, the floors need redone, and the fixtures need replaced so we can totally handle that.

Paint, a (king size) bed, and dark hardwoods with an area rug. Perfect!

My list of projects is longer than my husband has the patience for, and they will definitely take time, but I can't wait to share them with y'all! There will be a few empty rooms for a while until I can make some decisions, something I'm notoriously terrible at, so I'm sure I'll be asking for your advice!


Now, let the paint color picking and packing commence!

Don't forget to link up this Friday with Stephanie, Laura and I for the first ever Can't Live Without It linkup!
