We got a great deal on our townhouse in West Village. Unfortunately, it was a little outdated... So, Rob and I have been doing some do-it-yourself touch-ups over the past year. It's been a lot of hard work, but totally worth it. It's still a work in progress, but here's how it looks so far!
{Before pics...}
Living room
The slate on the fireplace just wasn't our taste. There was a huge gap to the right of the fireplace that peeked into the staircase. Hated the cabinets and hardware.
Countertop from the 80's in the bathroom
No storage in the eat-in kitchen area.
Bedroom with textured walls and popcorn ceiling....terrible, right?

Living Room
Rob put new tile around the fireplace and put built-in cabinets to the right of the fireplace. We plastered, sanded, and repainted all the walls to get rid of the textured look.
Rob put built-in cabinets in the eat-in kitchen area for more storage. We painted all the cabinets and got new hardware.
| Downstairs half-bath and laundry area. |
| DIY wall art - just framed swatches from fabric.com. They fit perfectly into IKEA frames. |
A peek into the patio area
Staircase
Upstairs full bath with new granite!
We also painted all the cabinets white and replaced the hardware.
Guest room with DIY headboard from this website.
Master bedroom - no more popcorn ceilings ;)
