Since we put in the wood floors, we've been itching to get some more things done around the house. We have a long list to tackle, but here are some of the things that have been done lately (P.S., I am really bad about remembering to take "before" pictures, so for those of you who have not seen our house in person, just imagine that these things we've been working on looked much a little worse than the pictures posted here):
Cedar exterior framing, new door knobs, wooden screen doors:
We wanted to give the exterior of the house a little makeover, so we decided to stain some cedar a gray (barnwood color) shade to frame the windows. While we were at it we also decided to put up wooden framed screen doors and new door knobs. I am still planning on painting both the front and side door one of these colors.

Here's the progess picture.
The windows on the outside of the house got the same cedar framing treatment.

Landscaping:

Close up of the cleaned up rock walkway. I love this walkway - the rocks have moss growing on them, it's great.
Interior:
On the interior, we hung some really cool wall art. This stained glass beauty was given to us as a wedding present. I love how it warms the living room and gives such character!
The red window. We found this guy at the Re-Store in Boone for $10. Can't beat it! Looks like it was a side window to a front door at one point. We did nothing to this except hang it up!
Love ikea frames. Love wedding pictures.
This one is an ikea print that I framed and put above the toilet in the master bath. I think it gives the toilet area some class, don't you think?
And finally, my favorite little spot in the living room. It's been fun discovering all the wildflowers plant varieties in our yard. We moved into the house in September of last year, so this is our first spring here!
Coming soon - painting the exterior doors, more on the landscaping, and (hopefully) a newly stained kitchen table!
