The McShane House Renovation: The Porch and some Paint

The Porch!

It is amazing what some paint can do, isn't it? After we painted the house we were able to finally put the new lights up on the porch. I think that everyone driving by can tell that the house is getting close to being finished. I really like the lights we chose and I feel like they really make the house look finished....Almost

Here are some pictures of the progress we have made, It seems like it was just yesterday that it looked like the first few pictures.

Overgrown front yard with no porch!

Tearing out the massive concrete porch...

No front porch

Getting the supports in for the porch.

The beginning of the porch

Ugh...the snow!!!

Before the second front door was put in.

Ta Da....We restored the second front door on the front of the house

After paint but before the light were added.

What a huge difference

We have light!!!! We actually have a matching pendant that hangs form the ceiling??? I don't know where that picture is?

The outside is coming together. I will update soon so you can see the pendant.

Inside Paint!

I have been busy painting the inside of the house. I have to thank everyone that has helped me, I really appreciate it. I chose an almost white paint for now. The walls are so wavy, I feel if I painted them a dark color it would really show off the uneven walls. So we are sticking to white for now until we can put up some crown molding.

The boys room is coming along... some of the walls still need to be painted but you can see the progress.
