Makeover Prices and Details!

First off, let me just say that I'm flattered by everyone's nice comments!  I'm glad you all like the makeover.  I can't wait until it's totally complete!

I wanted to give the details of where I bough everything and how much the whole thing cost us. 

So here you go:








So that brings us to a total of $1,321.  We sold our old table for $500 and our old couches for $175.
Which takes us down to $646! I'm pretty happy with that!  We do have a few more things to add but we plan to make those things ourselves and it won't cost very much.

The BIG Reveal!

Shine Your Light

I'm so excited to show off our before and after pictures!  We chose to makeover our entire downstairs, in under a month!  It was a pretty daunting task and we came SO SO close to finishing completely.  We are missing wall art in 2 key places.  Above our couches and behind our dining room table.  We already know what we are going to put in those places but it requires painting and building and the weather has not been permitting this entire week!  So we will hopefully finish it up this weekend and I will post some pictures!

***Updated to add:  I'm really disappointed in what "fotoflexer" did to the quality of my photos!  I use a nice DSLR and they look great on my computer, but not once I edited them in that program.  I'm going to post just the after pics in a separate post so you can see the details without the grainy-ness. ***

Now, for the good stuff!






























How adorable is this basket I found at home goods?  It's perfect to keep Lily's toys in so she can get to them easily! 
I just love it!

So....what do you think??  Can't wait to get a few extra finishing touches done!
