First up is the deer head in the living room. I took some pictures of the process because- it was a process. I love this laser level that we purchased from Lowe's. It suctions to the wall. It has been pretty handy so far. When it suctions to the wall it is kind of noisy but it was super helpful. The picture hanging hook- well I am just amazed it holds that deer head. But it has been at least a week since we put the deer head up and it is still there.
My boyfriend has allowed me a lot of input into the house- but sometimes I come over to the house and he has just decided to do something that I had no idea about. So far it has been all good stuff- but my favorite thing he has done so far is add baseboards in the office. In this picture you can see the office with no baseboards. It looks pretty unfinished.
After: Office with baseboards
The office also got a new door. Three doors needed to be replaced in the house- the office door included. I really liked how the old door looked- it had a bunch of glass panes, but it was not in great shape and it only had a screen door to prevent someone from busting all those pretty panes of glass in and being inside. The new door still has glass but there is a security door that adds more security.
Another room that got some additions is the master bedroom. The additions was bedding. My boyfriend had college bedding that was ok- but he didn't have a dust ruffle or a sham that matched. I spent weeks online looking at every website I could think of looking for "manly" bedding. Now, could I find gender neutral bedding- yes. However, I found it impossible to find bedding that looked like a man lived there.
We ended up creating our own between a couple of stores, Bed Bath and Beyond and Target, and I like the finished product. Please ignore the fact that the shams do not have pillows inside them.
