A Sneak Peek at the Garrett House Remodel

Since I’ve had many readers tell me how much they’re looking forward to our open house coming up in April, here’s a sneak peek at a couple of rooms to whet your appetite. I must say, Joanna Gaines of Fixer Upper has certainly helped us with some of the paint colors. The wall color in the home all season sunroom, Wedding Band, came from her collection. Don’t you just love the name?

Before: Former dingy den with two small windows. Very dark! This den used to be part of the existing porch that wrapped around the side and back of the house.
After: New windows added to the former den make a beautiful sun room. Wall color: Wedding Band (JG-12) by Magnolia paints, Trim: Snowbound (SW-7400) by Sherwin Williams
After: New exterior door added onto the front porch from what is now the sun room. Wall color: Wedding Band (JG-12) by Magnolia paints, Trim: Snowbound (SW-7400) by Sherwin Williams, Door color: Getty Gray (CW-720) by Benjamin Moore

We also took the back half of the same den and added a wall to make a generous laundry room.

Before: Doorway from former den into back hallway
After: Same doorway with glass door saved from dining room moved to new laundry room. We were excited to find several of the original doors with crystal knobs. Note: Laundry room is still unfinished in this picture. Wall color: Snowbound (SW-7400) by Sherwin Williams, Door color: Getty Gray (CW-720) by Benjamin Moore
After: New laundry room cabinets – not quite finished yet! Wall color: Snowbound (SW-7400) by Sherwin Williams, cabinet color: Getty Gray (CW-720) by Benjamin Moore

Check back next week for another sneak peek. And don’t forget, you can see the finished product in person during our open house in April!
