These are pictures of our home now and I will post pics as we go along. We'll be adding a front porch to the front with a circular drive off the main road. On this side, we'll add a huge, screened in porch. This is the side of the house and will be the kitchen entrance. Right now, I'm working on the kitchen. It used to be dark paneling on all walls and dark stained cabinets. This wall was just paneled and we found the cabinets at a salvage place. They match our cabinets, so it's great. I'm painting them red and antiquing them so they'll be older looking. I'm almost done with the painting. Both kitchen and dining rooms are pale gold with cream trim. The ceiling is now cottage cheese spackling and we are changing it to corregated tin. The flooring will be our greatest challange. I'll take pics as we go along so you can all see the transformation from ugly duckling to swan. This pic is my "new" hoosier cabinet. We bought it at an antique store and it was a mess!!!!!!!! Dean overhauled it and then I started painting and antiquing. We still have to finish the drawer fronts this week. Show more later............ love you all.
