The remodel.

We finally realized our dream to own a beach house. But it's a big project as we have decided to remodel the entire house. It has a great location, wonderful ocean views and "great bones" but we want to make it "our own".

one week away ...

We are moving everything in to the house in a week so you can only imagine how many people are trying to finish the house! I have been busy painting abstract art and reframing some of my paintings to fit the look and feel of the house. We are currently "locked out" of the house as the floors have been stained and they are  drying ... so we can't get back in the house until Monday.

I have been finishing up last minute purchases and scheduling deliveries of some of the heavier furniture. We plan to move in to the kitchen on Wednesday and then arrive at the house on Thursday morning with a truck load of furniture and the entire household of belongings. I have a few friends helping with the move (not the heavy lifting, but rather the the fun decorating part) so I have a feeling Thursday will resemble one of those crazy HGTV remodeling shows. I will try to take as many pictures as I can!

These photos are from a few days ago, just before the floor guys kicked us out of the house so they could do the final sanding and staining. The floors will be a medium brown color and I can't wait to see them!

    I am a mom, wife, artist and someone always looking for a "new project". According to my husband, this might be my biggest "project" yet.
