When we moved into our house 7 1/2 years ago everything looked perfectly, generically lovely, which was perfect with a 3 week old baby in tow! Now that we've lived in it awhile, it's time to do updates. Our first project was to update the kitchen cabinets and counters. This fall we tore down the half wall dividing our kitchen and family room and had dark wood floors installed throughout the entire first floor. This spring we will have the fireplace brick paneled over, walls repainted and new baseboards installed. A work in progress, but we love the new floors!
Step one: kitchen cabinets
Step two: remove wall, tile and carpeting
Step three: wood floors installed
Step four: put furniture back and enjoy
