Remodeling

Shaun and I are trying to make a few changes around here. We love our new place, but want to add a fresh coat of paint and change things up a bit. I have been keeping him pretty busy.
Our plans:
1. Paint spare bedroom. We decided on a pale yellow. Shaun has some green curtains from his barracks room that will work perfectly in there. We bought a small futon to go in there. Found a small desk from Wal-mart that will go perfectly in there. Most things will be white, but the futon is tan/blue/white. I think it will go well.
2. Paint entry way for color and design. We found a great table at overstock that we ordered. Can't wait for it to get here. It is an antiqu finish, kind of white/cream with some hand painted flowers. Not too much though. We have a brick entry way on one wall, and right now, all the walls are a cream/off-white color. Very bland. Things blend into the wall very easily. So, thinking of painting it a nice mauve color, to bring out the flowers and spice it up a bit. I love accent walls!
3. Shaun wants to build some nice shelves to go in the living room. He has been drawing stuff up for a month now. He has got it all planned out, but I think this one has to wait until after the wedding. It will go on our carribean blue wall.
4. Paint our bedroom. Want it a soft, pale blue. Almost white, but blue. We have a blue/tan/cream colored quilt. Also found some tan curtains that match it perfectly. In order to lighten the room, we need to make it softer. Right now there is a burnt tan on the wall. Its ok for now, but needs to go!

In general, all the walls need something.

Some long term goals:
1. Paint kitchen. Right now all the cupboards are white, but on the inside a bright teal color. It is pretty neat, but I have a pink/black/white kitchen, so I want them pink. Yes, I have discussed this with Shaun, and he is ok with it, but he gets to approve the pink color first!
2. New floors in bathroom. We have this small (1 in x1 in) tile floor (both bathrooms) and they are icky. I think if we take them up, and find a nice flooring that will stay cleaner (easier to clean will do), then it would be way better. Maybe even the kitchen floor too. We'll see.
3. New sliders/windows. They aren't that good. They will do for now, and maybe for a couple years!
4. Some yard work, in the small yard that we have. Want to add some flowers and take out some ugly stuff that is there.

I think that about sums things up!!! Looks like we have lots of stuff to do!
