Hey There all in Cyber world! Today (even though this was done several weeks ago) the post is about... NEW CARPET!!! Well new carpet part 1, the main floor! I must say I think the main floor new carpet is my favorite thing about the house currently, I just love the face lift something as simple as a few square feet for nice warm flooring will do for the feel and look of a home! We are wanting to go with very warm, calming, and inviting for the main level of the house and we think this new carpet is the perfect start to that! God has blessed us so much this month with being able to afford big project on the house right off the bat and really He's blessed us our entire lives and continues to each day, we are so thankful for all His blessings and love celebrating his life this time of year with everyone, so as always all of this is because of Him!!! Wanna make sure credit is given where credit is due!!
Okay here is just an idea of the old carpet..... warning, if you have a weak stomach, might not wanna look.... I didn't take any close ups for your own safety.
This, the main family room, was by far the worst. As you can see.... we are assuming the nasty mold and overall look was from a previous pet of the home and/or messy children that were never cleaned up after along with the house sitting empty for 2 years (per new neighbor we just met a few days ago while putting out Christmas decor!) You might not think it looks that bad from these pictures, BUT if you had seen it in real life and smelled it in real life, you'd understand. It was simply unlivable, sadly!
Any who, out with the old and in with the new! For the main level of the home we decided to go with a nice dark speckle carpet... we LOVE it! It doesn't look as dark in this picture, but I will post some more with my good camera soon! But for now here are a few pics of the instillation, done by Georgia Floors of Woodstock, again highly recommend this vendor for any of your carpeting needs, we loved them and my parents just used them for their new carpet as well! Leanne and the whole team are super friendly and really work with you on your budget to get the best you can get!
All the instillation was done while we were on our honeymoon last month! So it was perfect to come home to a house we could now live in!!! Nothing more inviting than nice new soft carpet to put you feet onto!!
More to come later! Dinner is here and we are hungry!!! Next post will show you the upstairs (hint its a different color then the main level!) and also update you on Christmas Decor and Apollo!!! SO Stay Tuned!!
Disclaimer: I promise I will get into the actual "DYI" stuff soon, we are just trying to get everything in order before we start any remodeling or anything, so you're stuck with this boring stuff for now sorry!
Merry Christmas Time to all and to all a goodnight!
