House Decorating-Before and After

We finally bought our new home..Yay...and we love it.  Now, we just needed some paint on the walls...I LOVE color!  So, we began our 1st floor decorating/painting project.  Josh said he wanted the "wow" factor (as he called it) so, I knew I might need a little help achieving that :)  I contacted LeCroy Interiors, Inc.,  and they were GREAT.  They are good Christian people and so easy to work with.  I would highly recommend them.  They brought in samples of paint color, fabric, pictures, lamps, etc.  And away we went with choosing and planning.  It was a lot of fun and I'm "happy, happy, happy" with the way everything turned out!  We still have some more work to do and things (candles/pictures) to set out, but the big stuff (i.e. painting and window treatments) are complete...well, for the first floor anyway..wink wink :)  Here are the before and after pics:   

 This is not the picture that will go here, but I wanted something there for now to cover the outlets on the wall.  You get the idea :)

 LOVE our dining room!  The fan will be coming down eventually and a pretty light fixture in its place.  Thank you Greg for our dining room table.  We love it!

 Love my picture's new home in the downstairs bathroom.  It is Thomas Kinkade's 23rd Psalm.  It was given to me by my mom a few years ago.  Thank you Mom! 

 And thank you again Greg for our breakfast table.  Notice it's the same table and chairs, just different color (and the leaf is out).  We made a little swap!

We love the special touches to our new home!

Thank you again LeCroy Interiors for all of your help and hard work.  You guys were great.  Hope to work with you again real soon.

~The Lordship Of Christ In Our Homes~
May God’s peace be upon this house
That God has blessed you with
A home that reflects His awesome love
And the grace He freely gives

May it be a home with open doors
That welcomes strangers in
And makes them feel loved and accepted
Knowing that God dwells within

Our homes should be more than a house
Where we live day by day
It should be a place where God can reign
And precious memories are made

For as we establish in our homes
The Lordship of Jesus Christ
We invite His presence to come and dwell
And fill each room inside

So as we continue to lift up the Lord
In every part of our lives
It’s then our homes will reflect the faith
And hope we have in Christ
