David Houselhof Gets A Facelift Part 3

Ya'll ready for this?!

Presenting our beautiful new floors and kitchen. We couldn't be happier with how it turned out. It feels like a completely different house. 

Matte white subway tiles with black grout. New sink, mixer and Smeg dishwasher. 

New Smeg oven (which I'm in love with) & Samsung fridge, new kickers on all the kitchen cabinets. We are still deciding whether we change the cabinet handles to black. The ones we like are out of stock till July so we'll see what happens.

Audrey is loving having all her toys back and was very excited to pick her own special rug for her play area.
Now that the floors are done we can FINALLY look at getting a couch for this space to make it more homely... Only taken 4 years! 

We are all super happy to be back to 'normal' in the house, and to have the boys back home. It was a long 3 weeks without them here. Gordon was quick to vomit on the new floors.... dickhead!

David Houselhof Gets A Facelift Part 2

I'm a little bit slow with my part 2 update as it's been a full on couple of weeks. 

The first week was all of our floors (ALL FOUR LAYERS OF THEM) getting ripped up and our new hardwood floorboards laid. 

Week 2 we had lots of bits and pieces done. The plan was to have everything done before the floors were sanded and polished and then the last thing would be to install the dishwasher and the fridge. 

We upgraded our sink and mixer. Installed new downlights and removed this awful spitlight that was in the kitchen. We ran power to our kitchen island and a water line ready for our new fridge. 

BJ and I also spent many nights prepping and painting the new skirting boards. 

The new oven was also installed and then wrapped for safety while other work was being done. 

The tiler was meant to show up on 3 different occasions and stuffed us around a little bit so the tiles unfortunately were not completed prior to the floors being done which delayed our finish date a little bit more. 


These photos are super amazing I know

Late night painting of skirting is not the funniest thing in the world

At the end of week 2 we packed our little family up and moved out of the house for 4 days while the floors were sanded and polished.
