Our New House—Before Pics (Part One)

Hi!! It took me a bit longer than expected but I’ve got some fun before pics to share with you guys today from our new house! We’ve been here less than a month and absolutely love it. We’ve already got quite a few projects done, so stay tuned for those…but now let’s get to the good stuff—before pics! This house is quite a bit bigger than our last so I’m going to split this into two tours so it’s not overwhelming. 🙂 So stay tuned for part two!

Our house is a corner lot in our dream area of Richardson. Absolutely LOVE it! Isn’t it pretty? We even have a front porch. As you can see there is a LOT going on in terms of bushes/trees everywhere…not in a good way LOL.

So, an interesting thing before we go inside. Every single room/wall in the entire house was painted the same shade of yellow. Not a shade I like sadly. So as you’re looking through the photos please know that my photography skills aren’t horrible, but literally everything looks yellow. Cause it is. 🙂

This is the entryway:

This was taken standing in the entryway. This was a formal living room, but we are changing it into a dining room:

This was the original dining room, but we’ll be turning it into what we call the library. Fancy, I know. 😛

To the left is the entrance to the kitchen:

Here’s the kitchen looking towards the library:

Now looking the other way:Richardson house before pics_0012 Richardson house before pics_0013

This is the eat-in kitchen. And yes, we have a second story! :))) For the first time ever!Richardson house before pics_0014

Sharing a wall with the kitchen is our living room:

So as you can see this house is filled with wood tones/paneling and yellow everywherrreeeeee! Eek. It’s fun looking at these since they already look so different from what we are living in now! 🙂 I’ll be sharing part two of the before pics on Friday…then we’ll get to some afters! 🙂

  1. This house has great bones, wow. So much to work with…but so much work to do. The results make it all worth it, yes?? Can’t wait to see.
