PART II: Sept 08, 2015

Sunroom nearly done..ceiling fan needs to be put up.  ....The house is looking great.  It's been a very long haul getting everything done, but it doesn't look at all like the house it was.  THAT...is a good thing.  It's been a while since I've talked about the house, so just to reiterate what's what---it hadn't had but one (very ugly) update to it since it was built in 1972.  Location is AWESOME, the view.. also AWESOME.  But the interior... was just 1972 hideous. lol  Ugh.  But, that was then and this is now.  Going to be okay.

NOTE:  The image here doesn't do the room justice, really.  But you can get the gist. ;)  BTW, I LOVE this sunroom!

After considering one idea for the sunroom, I decided on a blue floor and ceiling.. same color the cabinets are now painted.  LOVE this color!  It's going to look great when the patio furniture and rug, etc. are in the room.  Haven't decided on if I want to put indoor/outdoor sheer curtains in there or not.  I can decide that later on anyway.

Inside...the red brick fireplace is being covered with travertine subway tiles, with larger travertine tiles on the raised hearth.  Looks MUCH better.  Basically, the entire house has been re-done, with the exception of one small bedroom.  But that one bedroom really doesn't need anything.  Well, the ugly, outdated ceiling light has been replaced with a ceiling fan...not as decorative as the ones in the master bedroom, living and sunroom.  But still nice.

I really love the new fireplace tile and can't wait until it's finished...until the entire house is finished! :D  Everything looks SO different... and looks like it should be sitting on the beach somewhere.  I think nostalgia too me down that road.  Not sure.  But it all started with a small piece of beach glass. ;p  Go figure.

Anyway, the kitchen cabinets are done in the same blue as in the sunroom, and the same travertine tiles are now the backsplash (not subway).  It's coming together quite nicely.  And once everything is done... I can order my exercise bike.  Now THAT'S another talk show.  But basically.. I've always wanted a stationary bike, one of the really nice ones, and now... I can get one since I will have an extra room to put it in.

Well, I'm feeling rough so will sign off of this blog so I can post in the other "alter ego" blogs. Whew.  So hard to keep up these days.

Later, taters!
