house tour

b and i "invested" in our first home a little over two years ago. we were looking for something in our price range that didn't need too much TLC. looking for a house in milwaukee is not easy. 90% of the houses that we fell in love with had not so desirable neighborhoods. we finally found the house we are in now after many late nights searching listings and driving what seemed like all over the country to track down for sale signs.

although we are happy with our purchase, we are looking forward to moving (yes, i said that and i DEPISE moving). we'd like to relocate closer to our families, however with us both having good jobs in milwaukee, we probably won't be moving anytime soon.

this is a picture of the guest bedroom, before we painted it.

the colors turned out A LOT brighter than we were anticipating, however it works out since i had an old bright duvet set. i'm a big fan of bold and bright colors, however i'd really like to repaint this room at some point.

 the kitchen is my favorite room in the house. i love the colors, cabinets, and tiling. i always liked white cabinets, however i don't think i'd choose them if i had a choice, they are not so fun to clean.

this is a picture of the living room before we moved in. it looks almost identical, just substitute another awesome couch and different curtains. 

i'll post more pictures.. once i'm happy with how the master bedroom and bathroom look. don't hold your breath... it may be a few months (or years)
