There is still much to go through in the rest of the room, not to mention other parts of the house, but its nice to feel that we are making progress.<BR/><BR/>We have also been redoing some cheaper things that make a big difference. One thing we did recently was to rip up the carpet (which I ***HATED***) in our living room, only to find some truly terrible wood floors underneath. A few of the boards had rotted from termite damage years ago (fortunately no more termites). We repaired what we could, and painted it. It cost about $25 for the entire project, and though it isn't ideal, it is SO much better than it was. For $25 it really makes a big difference and will definitely work for a happy solution until we can recarpet someday. <BR/><BR/>Hang in there! :)<BR/><BR/>KristinKRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03378706314614555542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7901318.post-18758616110744450592008-03-08T15:32:00.000-06:002008-03-08T15:32:00.000-06:00Those treats look good enough to eat, though I'm s...Those treats look good enough to eat, though I'm sure no so tasty as the real thing. <BR/><BR/>I'm also "spring cleaning" even though it's autumn in Australia.

When we had some $$ about a yr ago we opted to buy granit counters but not new cabinets. They are real wood so I figured we could redo them.

Although it was hard at first, having removed all of the clutter and personal effects from this house getting it staged to sell, I'm actually liking the more simplistic, uncluttered surroundings. I may choose not to display all of my "treasures" once we get the "new" house renovated. <BR/><BR/>Happy cleaning!Kentucky Boundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07473650598369798023noreply@blogger.com
