Throwback Thursday: Our Entry + Hall

one Comments

Its time for another Throwback Thursday, where I share a space in our house and all the renovations that went into it. Just to recap, we bought our house in May of 2012 and immediately started a gut renovation. It took about 6 months for the house to be livable (meaning there was a functioning toilet and shower - still no kitchen at this point) and another year and half after that for the main renovations to be completed.

Happy New Year!! Okay, I know I'm late in saying that considering its the beginning of February as I type this, but, if you didn't notice already, I updated my blog website and gained a few new features (now you can search)!! I've been working on this change for the last 6 weeks, hence the lack of blog posts last month, and I'm proud to have finally launched my new site with the little knowledge of website building that I have. So, even though its February, I thought a 'goals' post would be fun since its my first blog post…
