Family Room Makeover

When we moved to our new house last summer, we loved the house, but we wanted to update most of it. Most of the paint colors and finishes were a little dated or just not our style.

Here’s what the family room looked like when we moved in:IMG_1789

 

 

 

 

 

As soon as we moved in, we tore off the chair rail and started stripping wallpaper. Then we painted. Walter even got to help.

And here’s what it looks like now:IMG_4380

I won’t say we’re done, because there is always more I want to do. But paint makes such a difference, don’t you think?

* Paint color is called “Applesauce Cake”  was chosen with help from my lovely interior designer Julie Sandman.

What do you think? Would you like to see more of our home redo? Leave me a comment?
