As you guys know, I’m a new {3rd time} homeowner. When we bought our home this past June, we did so with the intent to do massive home improvement projects. We completely gutted the kitchen {goodbye dated cabinets, countertops, soffit, wretched hand-painted ivy, and a wall}, converted the formal dining room into a home office with a new wall and pocket French doors, and added a 300+ square foot sunroom where the screened patio used to be. I’m going to take you through some of the steps to the renovation so you see exactly how crazy it was.

I’m going to begin with the sunroom addition. We began by tearing the carpet out of the old patio. From there, our contractors removed a portion of the foundation that was not level, poured a new, larger foundation. Walls were framed out, windows added, circuit breakers were installed, the walls were insulated, drywall installed and plastered, stucco on the exterior, a new portion of the roof was added by the residential roofing contractors, and Richard painted the exterior blue and white. He isn’t quite done yet, but it looks great so far! Visit this page about metal roofing tulsa to know more about it. Learn how on this site on how getting a professional roofing company to help you out with your roof is one of the best ways to assure safety and a quality roof.
Next, the office. This was an open formal dining room, but since I need a home office to run this blog, we enclosed it by adding a wall and pocket French doors. Richard painted it to match the rest of the house, and we added a pretty gold chandelier.

Finally, the kitchen! This kitchen was very closed off and dated. We removed a wall, converted the peninsula to an island, switched out the flooring from old beige tiles to sleek new grey tiles, painted the walls a light grey-blue, upgraded to beautiful kitchen cabinets as explained by Gamma Cabinetry experts were well followed and fulfilled, and we will be adding white granite countertops and a subway tile backsplash.

So all of that takes you to the like 75% point of our home renovations. Our garage doors still need replacement and we’re looking for something that will fit the overall design of our home. Apart from that we are now just about finished up, so I will slowly post about our completed home, likely through future posts, like this Family Road Trip Photography Gallery {dining space} and DIY Wooden Christmas Tree Farm Sign {fireplace}.
