i think i might have a love-hate relationship with old homes. on the one hand, i love finding character and personality in so many little details...such as glass doorknobs, window pane cabinets, and lovely hardwood floors. on the other hand, there are certainly aspects i could do without...such as the discovery of ominous cracks and holes critters can crawl through, dry-rotted window locks that couldn't keep out a five-year old, and the "interesting" pinkish/mauve/taupe hue someone decided to paint in every room. but when all is said and done, i wouldn't have it any other way.
below is a quick before and after of our bedroom. i haven't done any wall decorating yet, but here's what we've got so far.
