When we moved in, we came along with bedroom furniture that was- admittedly- a little large. We have an upholstered king size bed, and decent sized nightstands. We moved in, however, to a house with a primary bedroom that was smaller than one of the other bedrooms for some reason, and our ...
Coronado Update: Powder Room Reveal
There's almost nothing I love more than a little half bathroom. To me, if there's ever a room in a house in which you can go slightly overboard and a little wild, it's in these tiny occasional rooms, and if said powder room happens to be the space where guests always steal away for a quick toilet ...
Coronado Update: Hall Bath Reveal
Truth be told, this is sort of our primary bathroom, even though it's really the hall bath upstairs, but we don't really sleep in the primary bedroom because the layout in one of the other bedrooms worked better for us, and the primary bedroom with the attached en suite bath just seemed to work ...
Coronado Update: Dining Reveal
In the beginning...
In the beginning, I don't think we had one real photo of the dining room. I've scrolled back on my phone, perused the old listing, and all I could find were these:
I went into this room knowing two things. First, I wanted a dining room that would feel like a dark and ...
Coronado Update: Kitchen Reveal
Remember where we came from?
For so many months, it's seemed like Bryan and I (and now Oscar and Sid) have been just trudging through life in a house that's just not 100% done anywhere. The dining room still needs curtains (they're going in today, actually!), I'm waiting for a table to ...
Coronado Update
I'm so pleased to say that we almost have a house that's done. Almost.
Our kitchen is done other than backtracking a minor mis-measure on the over-the-fridge cabinet. We're waiting for the correct cabinet to come in, and then, I promise- a reveal! I'm completely blown away by how different ...
Coronado Update
We have turned a corner in this renovation, and it's finally feeling like we're living in a house!
When I last updated you, the cabinets were being installed as I sat typing. Well, folks, they're in, and they're GORGEOUS!! I'm not sure if you can tell from the photo below, but this is a world ...
Coronado Update
I mentioned to the hubs on Friday that I felt as if we'd been running a marathon and just crossed the 20 mile marker. His response was "That's when it starts to get hard!" The last month has brought a whirlwind of activity to the Mills household;
Sadly, when our front doors arrived they were ...
Coronado Update
Firstly, an apology for running a little late with our monthly house update. I had quite a few big work changes over the last couple of weeks and have been a little distracted! Still, there's a ton to update you on, so here we go!
In the last week or so, most of the interior doors have been ...
