I love it! The teal is especially fabulous! I can't wait to see the progress you make!

Congrats on the new house! The front entry/living room is super cute, I like the flow. How long do you plan on living there? Would you ever consider taking out the wall separating the kitchen and living room or doing a pass through there?

The plan is to be here for at least 7-10 years. To be honest, I'm not sure it would be worth the cost to take out the wall, or how that would work/look considering the vaulted ceiling. There's already a pass through into the kitchen from the living room. I don't do a ton of cooking, I just want to utilize the space in the kitchen efficiently/make it feel less dark and cramped.

Do you like the banisters? I have the same ones in black and I dislike mine but they look better in your house. I was thinking of painting them white and now I want to do that for sure.

I do like them in white, but these are kind of dingy at the moment. The previous owner did not seem particularly concerned with housework, but I feel like if you keep up with cleaning them it would look nice.

Can you PIP yours?

Well it looks really nice as it is, and again, I really like the front entry. I love to cook and have a 4.5 DS so opening things right now is my preference, but you may not want/have to consider that. I especially love the open space at the top of the stairs and the new colors so far look really nice!

Congratulations! I love the colors, and I'm really impressed by your progress. Fantastic. And I know it's not the point, but you have perfect cuticles. I'm jealous of your cuticles.
