I am a chronic room rearranger and because we have small kids, I find myself looking for better rooms or layouts that suit our family for the moment we are in.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">What was once the living room, is now our master bedroom...</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The kids play room has been relocated to the "back room" area and both of their bedrooms are now upstairs and swapped out { Jude is in Isabelle's old room and Isabelle is in our old room} The 3rd bedroom {which was converted into a kitchenette for renters} serves as a huge walk in closet for the kids and storage. There is also a full bath on the second floor. Are you confused yet? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Back to the living room. So, once we were "living" in this room more, I had had enough of the sun yellow and grass green. Here are the befores...</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"> The first step was picking out a color. Since the kitchen is a green/gray color and open to the living room, I had to choose something that would flow from one room to another. I picked Behers Rainforest Dew and had it mixed up at Sherwin Williams. I filled HUNDREDS of tiny tack holes and some larger ones. I then primed ALL the woodwork and fireplace. then started in with my tinted primer on the walls.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">It was A LOT of work. The walls required primer and 2 coats of paint. The woodwork needed sanded, a coat of primer, and 4 coats of paint. The fireplace was primed twice, painted with 2 coats, and had all the grates removed and painted.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Still to do:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Flooring</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Window treatments</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">TV stand</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Paint Mirror</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Reinforce book case</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Add decorative touches</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Next on the list? The upstairs. I don't think I have posted a single picture of our second floor.

I have been MIA for MONTHS now! Sorry about that. Our lives have been CRAZY this summer. Luke graduated from pharmacy school, we moved across the country, Luke now has a new job, and Isabelle starts kindergarten on Monday! I have not stopped on my projects, but had a hard time recording everything I did. I am going to do a quick update on what's been changing around here!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I believe I was in the kitchen when we were together last. The paint is done and I finished my pantry project! Here is a reminder or where we were and are how things are looking these days..</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I chose my favorite method for quick face lifts, spray paint! I usually wind up spray painting most things I own {you can see some past projects <a href="http://here/">here,</a> and <a href="http://seeoursweetlife.blogspot.com/2012/07/spray-paint-obsession.html">here}</a> so these lamps were no exception. I went with a nickel finish Krylon brand spray paint.</span><br />

The paint is going on the walls! Yaaaayyy, Happy dance {my kitchen has been torn apart for over a week now} The trim, doors, and moldings have all been painted and we are ready for the next step, with one exception....I CANT decide on a paint color. I would slap a little on and think, Yeah! That looks great!, then it would get dark out, or dry, and it would be all wrong. Ugh. So, I painted all 5 choices on the wall in patches along the black molding. I painted a strip of white next to each one so you can see the contrast it will have against all the white trim and put on 2 coats to insure their true colors. Whew! Now this is where you come in! Please, please let me know which you like best. We are using all HGTV Home colors by Sherwin Williams through the whole house and are trying to keep everything appealing to the masses for when we decide to sell. Are you ready? Concentrate. Here we go.</span><br />

I was hoping to be further along by now, but my back paid the price of standing on tall ladders for 3 days and had to go on hiatus. So, if you need a refresher, here is where we started {<a href="http://seeourhomesweethome.blogspot.com/2013/02/taking-on-kitchen.html">here</a>}</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Keeping in mind that this house was a daycare for the past 20 years, my first task was filling HUNDREDS of tiny thumbtack holes all over the walls from years of holiday decorations and children's works of art.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">After taking some time off after the holidays, our trip to Disney, the cold weather, etc, I am FINALLY on to the next room in the house. The kitchen! I realized looking back at the original <a href="http://seeourhomesweethome.blogspot.com/2012/11/home-sweet-home.html">Home SWEET Home</a> post, that my tour fell a little short and I didn't post a SINGLE photo of the kitchen. Shame on me! So, here are some befores for you {I did however remove some birdhouse border from there already and couldn't find any pictures that showed it}</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">To say this kitchen is outdated is an understatement, but it is HUGE.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />

This might also be one of my husbands biggest pet peeves about me. He likes things to always be the same and I can never make up my mind about what I want and lets be honest, its basically playing doll house with a real house and thats what all little girls dream of doing, right? About one of the only perks of being away from my hubby right now, is that I can rearrange to my hearts content :) So, here are some pics of the ever changing living room...for now ;)</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Well, that lasted a little while. Until I found a cute set of sheets that I thought would be perfect to cover the patterned unmatching couches. Which inspired me to move some things around yet again.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I left the couches again, but swapped out the iron medallion over the mantle {which was just slightly to small} for some patterned decals that I scored super cheap from LTD commodities.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I moved both lamps onto the mantle and moved the chair and sidetable/lamp under the window on the left.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Both the floor lamp/table and the lamp on the desk used to be brass. I gave them both a little revamping which I will share with you later :) I moved the desk where the chair used to be and left the shelf in the same place.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">The other couch also stayed but was covered and got some company in the way of an ottoman and a side table. {Still in search of a solution for covering up the arms, ideas?}</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">I was thrilled to get to decorate an entire house for Christmas this year! Every other year of my adult decorating life, has been spent in an apartment or condo {<a href="http://seeoursweetlife.blogspot.com/2011/11/deck-hallspart-one.html">Christmas decor 2011</a>} so I will ALL out! Take a quick look at our Holiday home.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">After being in the space a few days, I of course had to rearrange the furniture {thanks again to everyone who has donated furniture to us}. I also was not happy about looking at the white pin board material above the mantle. I have plans to find something to cover it, but until then I decided to paint it the same color as the wall...</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Once I got it all squared away I dove in decorating for Christmas...Over a week later, I am ALMOST finished!!

You can revisit that <a href="http://seeourhomesweethome.blogspot.com/2012/11/bless-this-house-for-walls-are-holey.html">here.</a></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We have also started in on our bathroom. If you missed out, you can see it <a href="http://seeourhomesweethome.blogspot.com/2012/11/bathroom-facelift-phase-one.html">here.</a></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Next on the list....Priming. Lots and lots of priming. We once again got all our supplies from Sherwin Williams. We purchased their tinted primer for the walls and white primer for the trim. After that it was all about rolling, brushing, slopping, and edging.</span><br />

I have started an additional blog!! I will pause for a moment and let you all cheer and clap with excitement. Alright, alright already, that's enough. </span><span style="font-size: large;">This new blog is all about the newest chapter in our lives...Our new house! Well, technically it is an old house and that is what has inspired me to create this new blog.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">While we have been living in Florida for the past 4 years, Indiana is our true home SWEET home and with 6 months left until hubby graduates, we have already started the migration back to the Midwest and into our new abode. The kids and I will be here, husband/daddy less for a while but this leaves me PLENTY of time to update the old with super fun new! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Our new home was built in 1850 and is large, grand, and outdated. For the past 20 years it has been used as a daycare center with the upstairs fitted as an apartment. We have already been hard at work on a few projects, but here is a peak at a few of the rooms before!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Welcome to From Florida to Flora!!</span><br />
