Home Project

Finally I had the change to spend some time in our home because we're usually busy with working or doing stuff outside of our house.

So I had the last two days of and S was out working or playing football (or soccer as some call it) so I was all alone at home and looking around to what has to change around the house. This is my list so far:

- a new bathroom and find a contractor to do it
- new counters in the kitchen and find somebody who can install that for us
- a new fridge
- redoing the doors of the wardrobe closet (we didn't hang them correct so they're open all the time and I have to close it with an elastic band)
- Finally hang the shelves that I bought from Ikea months ago
- paint the diningroom chairs white
- buy the cabinet that I say at a second hand store which is on my way to work and paint it white and put it in the bedroom
- buy flowers and plants to make the home cosier
- Find a solution for a glass door that I don't like and maybe look for a new door or only replace the glass inside it. Maybe discuss that with S first...
- Finally hang a lamp in the study after three years (I live in our house for three years but never hang a lamp in the study so it looked empty and unfinished)
- Put up the paintings and pictures that are still standing in the study for years and never taken the time and effort to do it.

So I started on my list by calling my father to help me. So he came by today and we redid the doors of the wardrobe closet, hang the Ikea shelves, hang the lamp and put a new door handle on the door with the glass. When my father left I hang some frames with pictures in the study and so far, it already looks so great. I'll show you pictures another time.

S and I talked about the kitchen and we're doing that in January but we haven't decided on the bathroom because that's going to cost a lot of money. So what's left of the list is this:

- a new bathroom and find a contractor to do it
- new counters in the kitchen and find somebody who can install that for us
- a new fridge
- paint the diningroom chairs white
- buy the cabinet that I say at a second hand store which is on my way to work and paint it white and put it in the bedroom
- buy flowers and plants to make the home cosier
- Find a solution for a glass door that I don't like and maybe look for a new door or only replace the glass inside it. Maybe discuss that with S first...

Well, there's still a lot to do but we're getting there. This saturday, hopefully we're starting on painting the dining room chairs after after that, we will see... But I'm sure it's going to look great and then I can show you!

Talk to you soon!
