Condo upgrades

So, my boyfriend and I moved into our new condo a week before we left for Sweden. When we got back from our trip, we started our first project: Painting the second bedroom.

For some reason, the previous owners thought it was a good idea to paint the room bright green. It was so bright that Albie's father would put his sunglasses on each time he entered. After a week of sanding and painting the trim and priming and painting the walls, the room is a more pleasant light blue.

We are still hoping to replace the beige carpet with a wood floor, or a laminate wood-lookalike, as we want to do in the entire condo.



In the kitchen, the following progress has been made...

Our plan is to upgrade all our appliances to stainless steel when they break. Right now it doesn't make the kitchen look any brighter, but we will work on that! The new stove sure makes it fun to cook again!
