Another Project Completed

Wow, it's been quite a while since I have posted - in the wine/beer biz, these are the crazy months, and things should calm down in January. We have not changed our minds about Ecuador, and things are progressing....slowly, but surely.


The good news - after many months of planning, we finally have kitchen and master bedroom/bath plans completed. My architect is very creative and came up with some beautiful plans for the renovations.


Now that the drawing phase is completed, I need to come up with the $$$ to get the demolition and beautification process started! That's going to take some time, but at least things are moving in the right direction. 


My house was purchased when I was a single momma...needed a nice place to live yet didn't have a crazy high budget. So I searched and searched and found this house that needed a TON of cosmetic work. It was stuck in the 80's and my first project was to de-brass everything. Yep, shiny brass was everywhere along with horrendous wallpaper. 


For the past 7 years now, I have been renovating the house, room-by-room. Hubs has been putting in some serious elbow grease for sure!! 

Popcorn ceilings (all vaulted and 20something feet high) smoothed out in entry/living room and family room - what a nightmare!!

Downstairs hall bath, not yet completed, but pretty darned close:

 The guys had to take out all the drywall, and re-fit/level the walls...joy joy!

New everything - the tile looks AMAZING.... faucets are in now, just need a shower curtain (for looks only, no one uses the tub...)

And nice pretty sink (after pic) below

One step closer to EC!
