Finally! I am going to post some pics of our big remodel project! So it started with the moment I realized I just bought a house without a pantry! My fabulous handyMan whipped up a plan to make me one and I was thrilled:) Basically within days of moving in to our beautiful new home we were smashing walls down with a sledge hammer! It was great fun! So pictured below is my view from my front door. We had a sitting room/front room and we decided we didn't need one quite so big so we knocked a hole into the kitchen and built our pantry into the front room.

I don't have an "actual" before picture but just imagine a plain white wall there instead of 2x4's.

This is the view from the front door. The front room.

| This is the view from the kitchen side. Into the pantry. |
Then Brock put dry wall up and mud and built me some fabulous shelves.
I decided I wanted something special in my pantry so I decided to stencil the back with this fab stencil I picked up for 1.99 at Hobby Lobby!
 |
| Stencil process. It took a while but I didn't mind the work. |
 |
| Ta da! Pantry complete! |
 |
| And here is the door to the pantry! All complete! |
So we decided we didn't really need a front sitting room (plus we didn't want to buy a couch we would never use!) So we decided to make the front room an office:)
 |
View again from the front door right when you walk in the front door.

| After! |
 |
| And my handyMan built me a book shelf! I feel like I have my own library! Heaven! |
So there you have it! 2 projects actually mostly complete! We only have about 7 other ones that we've started and haven't yet finished but when they get done I will be sure to post them!
