We've painted the living room and kitchen, added blinds in the family room, added a new kitchen sink, and right now my dad is installing a ceiling fan.
Here are some action shots..
I had originally picked Mercer for our kitchen color, but it ended up being a bit too dark. I decided to choose the same color that used to be in our master bedroom in California:
Valspar "Seine"
Wow - the bones of your house are beautiful! I love seeing the progress you're making. What a fun time this must be for you. Congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I'm so thrilled to see that you (a designer) have bedroom furniture that goes together. I do too and I like it to flow together and match. I LOVE your style! I'm a new reader. :)

ReplyDeleteI love your house! And the progress that's already been made is great!
ReplyDeleteIt's nice to see Charlotte "supervising". She looks like she's having a great time. Also, "Seine" is going somewhere in my house now. Just so you know!
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing. I'm so excited for you.
It's so great to have help! When we moved into our house, my parents were so helpful - guess that's what you do for your kids. The progress looks great!
ReplyDeletehow sweet!!! when you have great people around you everything works out better, right? Bryn it's looking really really good!! love the living room shape, how gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteIs that wall-to-wall seagrass in the family room? (The room with the fireplace)
ReplyDeleteWhatever it is...it's beautiful!
Wow Bryn, it's coming along fast! I love it so far!
ReplyDeleteThat's so nice of your family to help! =) Your house is looking fab!Charlotte looks so relaxed & chilled out laying there, she's soooo cute!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the progress in your living room so far. Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteIt looks so stylish already, and it's not even finished! I'm dying to see the final result, but I'm really enjoying these progress shots. Thank you so much for sharing this, it's so exciting to follow the progress of your new home!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress. It's looking fantastic so far. Lucky to have all those helping hands.
ReplyDeleteI just got the keys to my place today and I'm totally overwhelmed by the work that needs doing.
Are the chairs in front of the fireplace HENRIKSDAL chairs from Ikea? I'm debating on whether or not to purchase them online since we do not have an Ikea near us, but my husband is hesitant since he can't see if they're comfortable or not.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. Love all colors, especially in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteAnd it's very nice that your family helps to you ;)
xoxo,

It looks like it's coming along beautifully. You're so fortunate to have family who is willing to step up and help.
ReplyDeletehow exciting! isn't family the best! btw, i love your pink vacuum :) i think that might make me actually want to vacuum instead of dreading it....
ReplyDeleteI love the kind of company that comes to work! :) That color in the kitchen is perfect.
ReplyDeleteit's looking gorgeous!!!!!!! cant wait!! xoxoxox
ReplyDeleteLove it! How amazing to have your family pitch in like that! I think I'm going to have to have a talk with our parents!
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome! I love those blinds in the family room-where did you get them? :)
ReplyDeleteI've been painting my butt off as well, but mostly just a 14 foot tall wall in the living room, and a really fun wall in the kitchen. I love your kitchen color, and I also feel your pain as far as painting goes.
ReplyDeleteOh, the color in the kitchen is beautiful! What a perfect choice!
ReplyDeleteit's looking lovely in there!!! does your fam want to come to upstate new york to tackle a nursery??? i can't seem to get the hubby going on it and our twins could be here in 6 weeks. YOWZA!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteWow! Tons of progress. Nothing like a visit from the parents to get things done. Love the paint color in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteWow, it's looking great already! I'm totally in the market for blinds like those -- can you share the details?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great family!! I love when my family comes over to give us a hand!! :)
ReplyDeleteAny time they would like to come to my house, I have a staircase that's begging for some color. I'll host your painting crew any day!
ReplyDeletejbhat
I am so loving your house!!! I really need to paint but it's hard with one toddler and being pregnant. But after seeing your house, I just want it done now. Well, I guess I can just pretend to be living in your beautiful home for now! :)
ReplyDeleteI also saw RL's mercer gray and decided to use it in my kitchen (white cabinets as well!) It was also a tad bit dark in my home, and I ended up going with a similar color called "Rockport Gray" by Benjamin Moore- it is beautiful against the white! Very nice choice.
