Bye Bye Blue

I hinted in the last post about blue carpet. This blue carpet was in the entire house. The first thing we did when moving in (July 08) was rip out the blue carpet in dining room and living room and extend the hardwoods. Therefore, the entire first floor is either hardwood or tile.

Before (This is from the realtor's website)....

after...The light fixture in the dining room used to look like this....
As you can see, we also replaced that with an amazing $60 craigslist find (compared to the $300 I really wanted from pottery barn).
