That floor is gorgeous. I hope they put more cabinets next to the hood - it looks too empty or something.
Hall Improvement
Nothing Major, But I Love It
That's a LOT of couch and it's now dominating the room. I'll never understand why anyone would want white upholstery! I'd ruin it in about 30 seconds. 😂

Love the pattern and I'm SO tired of seeing stainless steel appliances everywhere. Now, about the open space to the left...do you have plans?

Final Product
How’d We Do? (2019 vs. 2023)
Changing the awnings is a mistake unless they had something wrong with them. Those metal things last a long time and help protect your windows from taking in too much rain at the seams in the event of a storm with high winds. They may also appropriate for being authentic to age of the home. It would be less of a boo if they had at least kept some type of awning in all areas they pre existed.

Project Covid Man Cave
WV Woodburning Stove Remodel
This was a lot of work. I had the carpet ripped up and paid a professional to put in hardwood floors. I hand painted the tiles behind the stove to warm it up. Lastly, added some stone tile and painted the wood trim so it would be up to code.
