Happy Monday! A little late on the Valentine's pos

Happy Monday! A little late on the Valentine's post... but let's be real, we should be celebrating those we love every day! And personally, I think the day after Valentine's Day is even better cause all that leftover chocolate is on sale. 😋

Progress pic! 🎉🎊 You must all think I just l

Progress pic! 🎉🎊 You must all think I just love to paint cause I feel like that's all I've been doing since the start of the year 😂. Well this past weekend has been spent doing just that. At the back of our basement we have a section that we've been using as our office. As you can see from the before photo it was in major need of an update! I have some big plans in mind to fixup this space but for now I decided to see what a little paint could do. I don't love the wood paneling and absolutely hated the green wall colour so I used the leftover paint we had from the rest of our basement to freshen this space up. What do you all think?!

Oh heyyyy 👋Just hanging out in MY NEW BASEMENT!

Oh heyyyy 👋Just hanging out in MY NEW BASEMENT! If you've been following me for a while then you know that the past three months have been dedicated to transforming this space. It all started when I wanted to rip down the old ugly wallpaper and now here we are... With a completely new room!
.
.
I think we were a little in over our heads when we started tackling this project...but slowly we worked away on it (with a little extra help) one step at a time. I think I can officially say this is my favourite space in our house!
.
.
It's definitely not without its flaws and we learned alot along the way... But man does it ever look good! 👏
.
.
There's still more that needs to be done of course... We need to paint the trim and baseboards, replace the windows, paint the fireplace (my next project 😆) and get new furniture... But it has come such a long way!!
.

If you have been following this project from the start then you know all the ups and downs we had along the way. Not going to lie... A few tears were shed... 😅 Luckily we are now at a place where we can finally enjoy and appreciate all the hard work. Next part is the fun part... Styling and decorating!

Our basement walls finally have some colour!!! And

Our basement walls finally have some colour!!! And that colour is Ghost Writer by Dulux to be exact 😁. Not sure how it got that name, but I'm really loving it. I was a little worried about selecting a colour for such a large area in our home considering I wasn't able to get a test can... But luckily it's worked out! It's a mid-tone greige/taupey colour and I think it's really going to look great once our basement is all done...

Speaking of which...

We are almost done with our basement reno and I couldn't be more excited! (Except for the fact that we still have to purchase some new furniture which is a little tricky right now 😬).

This project has been almost 3 months in the making and we are finally getting closer the finish line. Just a little bit more to go and we will be all done! (That is until we start tackling our next project 😆).

I call this my "I haven't left the house in a week

I call this my "I haven't left the house in a week because I've been busy renovating my basement" look 💁‍♀️. I think I can pull off being covered in paint (and dry wall dust) pretty well by now 🙃. Although this wall behind me doesn't look like much, it has actually come such a long way. It all started when I wanted to just rip off the old wallpaper one weekend. Now here we are two months later and still working away. Even though our basement is far from being complete, lots has been done!
✔️ wallpaper removed
✔️ textured ceiling removed
✔️ the ugly spotlights removed and replaced with potlights (Merry Christmas to me)
✔️ ceiling skimcoated
✔️ ceiling and walls primed (still working away on some touch ups)

Unfortunately we did not get as far as we thought this week due to a few hiccups along the way. But looking back it's amazing to see how much progress has been made! The next steps will be to paint the ceilings and walls and the the fun part - getting new furniture and redecorating!

Also raise of hands if you've been with me since day one of this project! 🙋‍♀️✋. If you have, then you probably feel my pain 😂. And if you haven't, make sure to check out my highlight reel!
