Finally! The renovation to our home is complete...

and we have returned to a bit of normalcy. Whew! I didn't think we would survive another week of the crazy things going on at our house. Construction started the first week of January and ended last Friday. We added a whole new home office/work studio to our house, right off the master bedroom. It is beautiful and it is exactly what we wanted, but the journey to get there was getting downright ugly!

I am a person who needs a clean and orderly house. Dust distracts me. Dirty floors send me into a tailspin. And lets not even bring up clutter lying around. I can't handle it. So, to have our house in such a mess for 6 weeks was almost more than I could bare. How do people do total home renovations? I can't imagine having a home that's under constant construction.  We added a new room and painted and old one. I almost needed to be sedated! {Just ask my poor husband, who got to hear all about how the distruption was getting to me on a daily basis!}

Well, I wanted to share with you some of the pictures from start to finish. We've always wanted to turn our old study into a guest bedroom and add a new larger room for both of us to have a workspace. We decided to put the new room right off of our bedroom, leaving the existing exterior brick as one of the walls. We just love how it has a warehouse loft feel. It's a good mix of traditional & industrial with a good pinch of pretty thrown in. And while we have all of our furniture in place, we've yet to hang anything on the walls, so we will post more pictures when that's finished! Let me know what you think~~~~Laura
