House Tour

January 3, 2010 |  by Brooke Tansley

I hadn’t yet posted a full set of before pics, so here goes. Ready yourself for thoughts/emotions somewhere within the underwhelmed-to-horrified spectrum. Nighttime viewing is not recommended. If it gets too intense, please, just look away and think of puppies. I want you to have a happy New Year.

Let’s start with the heart of the home – the kitchen.

Once I’ve got the camera battery recharged I’ll add pics of the future kids’ room, the front of the house, and the last wall of the livingroom.

I can’t wait to update this page with some after pics!

  1. Good luck. I`ll be waiting the after pics. The dining room photo looks like copied of an scene from “the others” jaja

  2. Can’t wait for the after pics. I’m sure that with your background in design, your home will look amazing. Congrats on your new home.
    Cheers!

  3. We love your blog! Keep up the great work. We are impressed with the tons of junk that you’ve managed to clear out and recycle. We and Earth thank you. Eagerly await the “after” pics.
