Our Christmas gift

This year our Christmas gift came a little late. We decided that instead of buying eachother presents, we would spend a little money, and a lot of time, and put some work into the house.

We tore down the hideous textured wallpaper they had on one of the kitchen walls, to find about a dozen holes behind it. So, we patched them all up and painted the wall white.

 

I turned an old couch cover into curtains for the living room

 

and did a little art project in our bedroom.

We are slowly turning this house into our own, we have lots of plans, and one by one they are getting crossed off of the list. My goal is to have both bathrooms painted and three of the four walls in William's new room finished by the time Nick gets back from his deployment training in March. Cross your fingers I can work quickly!
