I've been following along as you've completed each step and I have to say you have done an AMAZING job. Even though I love every room.. I'm still green with envy over that laundry room. You have a great talent!
Lisa
Thanks so much! It's been fun decorating each room. Yes, I enjoy doing my laundry a little more in this room now that it's bright and cheerful. :)
Hi Jolie - Thanks for stopping by my blog. Every project always has a bump in the road - but you are correct, the end result is always worth it!
You've done an amazing job on your house! It's beautiful, and I am in awe of your incredible laundry room. Every room is a huge transformation. I can't wait to see what you do to the outside now! :)
I love your style!! and I can't believe that hideous pink Pepto Bismol paint in the guest bedroom! LOL!
Thanks Chelsea. I love my laundry room too, believe it or not, it's actually twice that size in that room, my office is taking up the other half of it!
Genie, I know, you can imagine when I first walked in the house and saw the pink walls, but I knew that was an easy fix. I question a lot of decisions the previous owners did to this house, but I guess we all do that. haha
Your house is serious eye candy! This post makes me a very strong combo of jealous and inspired. Every bit of it is just adorable!
Aww thanks Meg, that is so encouraging for me to hear :)
The house has become a home with all your projects. Cant wait to see what else you will do. Maybe you can come redo my kitchen for me!
I love your style! You've done an amazing job on the inside of the house and I'm sure the outside transformation will be beautiful too. Thanks for sharing!
Hello! I came to your blog from YHL, and I love your style! You have done an amazing job with your rooms so far, and I can't wait to see more!
Beautiful! I especially love the simplicity of the guest bedroom...what a transformation from that yucky pink!
I see a raised flower bed in front of your house, terraced to be level in front instead of sloping down.
Keep up the great work!
What a gorgeous home you have. I just saw your Laundry Room makeover on YoungHouseLove and had to come over and see more. Love what you have done with your home. Can't wait to see the outside transformation.
You have been very busy!!! What a cute house!
Just found your blog via YHL. What a lovely home! Kudos on all the hard work, its certainly paid off and your home is looking beautiful :-)
Just found you through YHL, and I had to pick myself off the floor. Your home is gorgeous. I truly love it all. But, the living room has me drooling. I love the mixture of colors and textures. It's just perfect.
Wow! your house looks so incredible Love the painted brick walls!
Your house is absolutely beautiful! Every room looks so natural and cozy!
Your house is lovely! I'm another visitor from YHL and I've really enjoyed checking out your blog. The outside of your house is cute now, so I can't wait to check back to see what you do with it!Thanks for sharing.
Very nice! I am thrilled to stumble across people who are as in love with their homes as I am! Also, I think the outside of your house is cute too!
Just found your blog from YHL. Really really nice. Just added you to my favorites, so I'll be visiting often!
Howdy from Texas! I just found your blog via YHL and love what you have done to your home. I too have a ranch style home and am in the process of redecorating. Your blog is inspirational!! I painted the paneling in my living room SW antique white too!!
I notice you have baseboards in a lot of the rooms in the before pictures, but it looks like there removed in the after pictures. Am I just imagining things? I'm curious because we're looking for houses and a few of them have baseboard heat and I'm wondering if there is a quick fix to that...
You have such a great sense of style........your whole home is beautiful. Love all the textures. Look forward to seeing what you do next!
Hi! I found you via YHL and their Reader Redesign post from yesterday. You've got lovely style and I ate up your blog in much the same way as when I first found YHL. I even wrote a post about it today.

♥k, I had the baseboard heaters removed from each room. There is one still in the laundry room and bathroom, but they will eventually go, too. I don't use the baseboard heaters, since I have central heat and air, so there wasn't really a problem with that. I think it can get a little pricey to switch out the baseboard heat if that is all the house has.
You have done an amazing job with your home and I love the fact that you have done it on a shoestring budget. An inspiration to us all! :-)
Hi, I found your blog from Shopping Candy. We were both featured there today. I loved seeing your room transformations. They are so peaceful and pretty. I also have a leather sofa and love white slipcovers, but your floors are what really take my breath away. Gorgeous.
Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous house you have there! Am totally jealous-in a nice way though and am so totally gonna copy your style. Err, that is supposed to be a compliment ok? I just bumped in to your blog and have been sitting here and staring at the pics since ages....want want want!
Cheers

It's AWESOME!! You have worked so, so hard and have AMAZING results to show for it...so cozy and welcoming but with your own special design. Love it!
So, I don't know you nor do I know anyone you know--I happened upon your blog via link from one of the reverb10 people's blogs (also someone I don't know). Anyway, point is, i was so amazed by the beautiful transformations you made to your home that I had to comment. SUCH BEAUTIFUL WORK!
I just came across your blog and am so impressed with your before and after photos! I especially love your idea of turning your coat closet into a little library - so sweet!

Wow!! Your home is absolutely gorgeous! I love every single room.
Could you tell me where you got that big basket in one of the photos of your header. I have noticed them in magazines, and have wondered where I can get one.

Beth,
Thanks so much!
I got the tobacco basket at an antique store. I sent you an email with the links to the posts on my blog that talks about the basket.

Your home is just too cute! I'm a new follower :)
I love the closet turned library, What a great idea! I am a new follower and I can't get enough of your pictures, they make me want to run through my house and plan how to update it. Very inspirational.
Stumbled upon your blog...I, too, have a 1950's red brick ranch....Love the library bookcase....Fabulous!
Just found your blog and can't wait to add it to my google reader. You have done a wonderful job with your place.
Hey Jolie, I'm pinning some of these on pinterest. HOpe you don't mind! It will link them back here to you.
What a darling home you have :)
so, i know this was so long ago, but i just wanted to tell you that i love your style!! and that 'turn the closet into a library' thing was genius!!!!! hope you're doing well.
ps i found you via pinterest.
Thanks Kellie, feel free to put comments on any post, I still read them.
I already miss my library closet, I really enjoyed designing it.
Hi,
I love your blog. I found it through pinterest and kept looking bc I live WS! Beautiful style. Thank you for your post on remembering what is important. I needed to be reminded. I am so sorry for your loss. Best wishes!
linked here from pentrest. The library closet is what I came to see, but everything you've done is awesome. inspiring indeed.
You have a beautiful home.
I love your home! We are buying a 60's ranch home as well and have a similar brick fireplace with wood paneling around it. I am going to copy you and paint the wood paneling white and change the brass surround to black! I just love your home! :)
All your changes were lovely, but I especially loved your closet library idea. What a creative use of space.
yeah, I love the coat closet turned into a library. great idea.
We've turned a large closet into a 'library', but I don't like the sliding wood panel doors that cover it, but don't want the books open for view either. French doors are a great alternative. Love it.
And I'd kill for a bathroom that large - 1970s ranch baths leave a lot to be desire. lol
