Hello everyone! I would like to start my very first blog by writing about our house and the first steps we took to making it our own. We bought our home almost 5 years ago, based on the fact that it was in move-in condition and it was a great price and great location! All of the ceilings were painted the same awful colors as the walls. Our master bedroom was painted such a bright yellow I needed sunglasses to enter! We started the first day we owned the house by painting the entire thing! We went through 22 gallons of paint in one weekend! Just this first step really made a difference in the look of the house and making it feel more like ours.
