I’m so happy to report that in week 3 I made progress! Way more than I had planned and now I’m extremely focused on getting the entire room done. I’m still figuring out a couple more pieces of furniture, but otherwise I’m moving along on my projects.

For starters, my new foyer light and chandelier are installed! If you remember from last week I showed you the before and what I picked out. Both are from Lowe’s and are the Progress Lighting Equinox Antique Bronze Globe Chandelier. Here’s the before again.
And now! The dining room chandelier is the left and the foyer/entry light on the right.
I love how they look and can’t wait to get a table under the chandelier!
Next, I installed all my base molding! Woohoo!!! I’m still painting as we speak but having it installed is a huge relief. For some reason I dread working on molding. It’s so easy but I tend to always put it off.
This week I received some more packages, one being this guy!
It’s the “Solid Core Z-Frame Soft Close Pine Barn Interior Door” from Lowe’s. This is where it will go, separating our kitchen from the dining room. I’ve always wanted a barn door and this is the perfect place for it. I hope to have it installed by next week.
I also received my Allen + Roth Curtain Rod’s, also from Lowe’s. I still need to get curtains, but once I have those I can hang these up.
Finally, my accent board & batten wall is up! Another Woohoo is needed! It’s installed and prepped to be painted. Once this wall is done I can start moving in some furniture.
So there you have it; it was a pretty successful week. Here’s a updated list of my to-do’s:
• Install and paint molding • Touch up wall paint
• Install new light fixtures • New curtains • Redo Buffet
• Accent Wall in living room • New Table & China Cabinet
• Install barn door • Wall art • Decorate!
