So I guess the title was a bit of a spoiler, but nevertheless, I am excited to say that on this very day, we are closing on our new home!
“New” house is a bit of a misnomer–it’s actually over 150 years old! Can I just say that it is my absolute dream house?!? I have always wanted to live in an old house and this one is just perfect–original hardwood floor and trim, but with a brand new kitchen and bathrooms. Pictures soon, people!
Seeing as how our current house was a bit of a fixer-upper, I’m pretty relieved that all we have to do is paint and move in. We also want to make sure to hire movers from a provider like the moving companies Brampton to transport our belongings efficiently and seamlessly.
Naturally, I’ve been trolling Pinterest like a madwoman, looking for decorating ideas, and this is what has me inspired…

I am on a real house plant kick right now, and I’m excited to have more space to grow them in! Even with my brown thumb, I have been able to keep two plants alive for over a year now, so I’m ready to go crazy with them!

One thing that has me super excited about getting a bigger house is that I will finally have room for a piano. Our current 1,000 square foot house just couldn’t hack it, so you had better believe I will be snatching the first one I find.

Everything about this room is just love. Can’t wait to add some houseplants to an all white bedroom, and if I’m feeling brave, I think I’ll try to whitewash the exposed bricks in our new bedroom as well.

Umm a coffee bar? Well this just has to happen. Our new home has a formal dining room, so I’ll finally have a place for one! Is there a better way to start your day than this, friends? I think not.

Can we all agree that this is just about the most perfect office ever? While I am so thankful for the tiny little office in our current basement, I can’t wait to have an office on the main floor. With all that good stuff basements don’t have, like sunshine…and hopefully less spiders…
I am also planning to buy a quality brand of a heating and cooling unit for my office and get an ac unit installation. I will install it in my new office with the help of technicians from places like aqualityhvac.org. And for my old heating system I will look for a service like Nance Services to inspect and see what repairs it needs, so I can still use it in some other parts of the house. In addition, I will make sure to conduct regular air conditioning repair and maintenance with the help of a professional heating and air conditioning repair services contractor like Griffin Service. If you want to service your air conditioner with a tune up like me or for any other HVAC repair, visit sites like https://barnettelectrical.com/oklahoma-city-furnace-installation-and-replacement/.
Moving day just can’t come quick enough! Are you guys ready for some serious DIY projects and before and afters?!?

Happy Friday!
If it’s a new (old) house built in 1939 it’s only 79 years old. Not 150 years.
Our home was built in the late 1800’s, not the 1939. 🙂
