we had no idea when we agreed to this months ago that it was that big of a deal, but we soon learned, if the weather cooperated (which it looks like it will at this point), we could easily expect up 1500 people to wander through our place.
whAAAAaaaaat?! 1500 people?!
consequently, the tour has kicked off a series of events in this house of ours that have long needed to happen - like hang art, do some painting, and yes, that front yard of ours.
we've been struggling with what to do with the big giant white wall behind our big giant tv. a friend suggested the following.
after a little photoshop magic and a quick trip to fedinko's, we have a really good temporary solution... one 6' x 7' pixelated photo of mr. declan mcmanus. the best thing about this is that when someone walks through the door, the tv is no longer the first thing they notice.
this has been sitting on the floor since the day we moved in. now, no longer.
our workroom has been in a state for some time. this week, it got some long needed attention.
we even added some chalkboard paint in the nook. beautiful and functional.
and finally, we turned our attention to the master bedroom, where some cheap, innocent canvas drop cloths gave up their lives to become our curtains.
...and where we finally decided on a paint color, a neutral and serene greige.
