Quick peak of the kitchen at the new house. Unpacking is coming along. I think the kitchen stuff is all put away for the most part, but will undoubtably be rearranged over the next few months. I never put a lot of effort into figuring out where stuff will go in a new kitchen because I KNOW I’ll move it anyway. You need to live in a space for a while to know what will work.
We got the keys on Monday, April 1st and and I took a ton of pictures before we moved anything in. I want a good before/after reference.
Before we could unpack anything I spend a good three days scrubbing and disinfecting. I swear I don’t think the place had EVER been cleaned. It was completely gross. Looked great on the surface but open a cupboard or drawer and yuck!
The curtains and light fixture will be changed (from the above picture). I am so not a fan of curtains but the house is on a fairly busy street. Not just with cars going by but also foot traffic. People sure do like to walk around here. I want light and airy looking curtains if I am going to have any at all. Something that I can easily throw in the washer. I think that is what freaks me out about curtains. How they just hang there, collecting dust and grime.
There is a little courtyard off of the sitting room. Oh and the roses! There must be a hundred rose bushes on the property. They are all full of buds and I can’t wait to see what types and colors they are. We need to get out there and start weeding and deadheading.
More pictures to come, once I get the rest of our things unpacked and put away. Then I can start decorating.
