Ok guys, bear with me, this post has a LOT of pictures!
 |
| The Foster house. Our house. <3 |
 |
This "F" came from one of our dear friends, he said "Now
you have a big F in yard" :) |
 |
| Our cute little front porch |
 |
| Our ultra retro kitchen....yeehaw. |
 |
| The door from the kitchen to the carport. |
 |
| Our bathroom. The only room in the house to have prior renovations. |
 |
| We think that the shower area, which is HUGE, used to be a Cinderella tub. |
 |
something like this was probably in that shower space.
(picture from retrorenovations.com a great source for retro inspiration!) |
 |
| Another angle of the shower |
 |
| I was so stoked about the new house!! |
 |
| Daniel's closet. The Master has two closets this size. |
 |
| The closet I claimed had only shelves. yes, has is past tense. |
 |
| This is a wide angle of our room. Two great big windows! |
 |
| This is the guest bath, dubbed the "blue bath", the original wood floors |
 |
| blue blue blue!!! |
 |

 |
| The guest room closet was painted green.... |
 |
| the "office" |
 |
| the Hallway |
 |
| The dining room after we removed the light fixture |
 |
| The back deck that we have high hopes for....someday soon. :) |
 |
The living room, with it's big ole' window!
You can really see the smoke damage around the vent. YUCK!!! |
SO, I hope that gives you a good idea of what the house looked like
before. I am excited to share with you in the coming days and weeks what the house looks like
now!!!
Oh the memories... The suffocating smoke smell, the house camping and the potential we saw.
ReplyDeleteI'll say, the best part of bringing an old house back to life and into a home is the friendships built in the process. Even between husband and wife! (I'm the husband to this blogger in case you didn't know that...)
A big shout out to the folks who knew the house in the condition of the pictures above this comment, especially Jeff and our parents! Thank you all so much!
I can't wait to see how this house turns out ;)
