Home Renovations

As many of you know our house is in a constant state of renovation. As in, it feels like it will never end. If I were to show you what the before and current pictures are this post would have a bazillion photos- it's crazy.

One of the few projects we have finished recently is our fire place. Here's a before picture:

Here's an after picture:

Our original plan was to use the stone all the way up the entire fireplace but we didn't have enough to do that (they were leftovers from something else that were given to us). So we stoned most of it, Adam built the mantel, and we stuccoed-ish the top and painted it. It's really like 95% done, we have to finish the grout in the stones and put a frame around the actual fire place.

In case you were wondering from the original picture we also took down the wall on the left, added a new smaller wall that only sticks out  about 5 inches from the side wall, added laminate floors, new recessed lighting, and painted.

I would be happy to add other before/ after pictures of other rooms of the house if anyone is interested!
