House Renovation. One Year (and then some) On. 10.09.12

Here's the hallway minus the stair carpet and the new flooring back in September 2011.

And now: carpet and flooring in situ.

Then:

Latex gloop all dry in the hallway; ready and waiting for the oak flooring to be fitted.

Now:

oak flooring fitted; the single toddler shoe is an optional extra

Then:

latex gloop all dry in the dining area.

Now:

you can hardly see the wood for the trees.

Then:

more dry gloop.

Now:

makes you wonder what was the point of getting flooring.

Then:

Upstairs, DC's room seems ready (apart from the carpet.)

Now.

Then.

Now.

Then.

Now.

Then.

Now.

Then.

Now.

Then.

Now.

I think it's fairly obvious from these photos that I don't bother tidying up before I take the shots. Clearly I'm a big fan of 'keeping it real'...

And finally a very odd shot of the hearth in the snug.

Then.

Now.

And on a completely different note, I found a photo on my phone of the photo in a magazine (poss Country Living, or Period Living - I feel bad about not being able to attribute it properly) that inspired my 'twigs in a jug' look, as discussed in the previous post.
