Top 5 Home Renovation Projects

With January coming to an end, geez it flew, I am putting down on the blog my top 5 home projects for 2016. I feel that writing them on the blog will hold me more accountable then simply writing them in my journal. I hope. 

Some of these home projects are a couple years on the list. It is amazing how much time a baby can take away from your day to day, but no more little miss thing. 

Okay, so lets get to it.

This is my top 5 home reno checklist, and I am not adding any fancy orchids or cleaning up before taking these “before” pictures, you can witness the before in all its true glory.

First and foremost, the second floor bathroom gut renovation finally. Ugh, I have hated this bathroom since the day we moved in. I tried to update it by painting and painting and repainting it through the years. But, it is finally time to knock it down to the studs and renovate it. See…

Second, since there will be dust going up and down the stairs, it is the perfect time to redo the staircase. From new carpeting/runner to re-painting the walls and banister.

Now, with a new bathroom and staircase, I want to finally complete our master bedroom. We are almost there. Just some finishing touches. No big deal but I need it done.

Here is another doozy. The kitchen. I LOVE the cabinets and appliances. No complaints there. But the kitchen countertop and backsplash are outdated. I would love to change it out and possibly have the cabinets professionally painted. A whole new kitchen without the gut rehab.

Lastly, me. Yeah, that’s right. I’m so done with the weight I gained with my last pregnancy. Oh and the pregnancy before that one, and the pregnancy before that one. Stay tune for my hopeful weightloss. yup.

So 2016, bring it! As I plan to finally attack my top 4 home renovation checklist.
