Home Renovation Plan // 2016
Well, I know it's mid-January; but I've had some time to think through what is on our to-do list for 2016. Here's a peak at what to expect this year...
#1 Guest Bath
This space got put on-hold after Thanksgiving {life was busy}, and we've started back at it this week. The big projects are mostly complete -- it's just the finishing that is remaining.
To-do
- Caulk Board & Batten
- Paint Board & Batten
- Finish Trim {behind toilet & beside vanity}
- Install Backsplash
- Hang Mirror
- Hang Towel Hooks
- Hang Art
Install Ceramic Floor TileInstall Board & BattenInstall TrimInstall Vanity TopRemodel VanityRefinish & Paint Walls
#2 Laundry/Mudroom
This room actually looks like it is already finished; but I still have a few projects in mind.
To-do
- Finish Trim {around air register}
- Install Shelf
- Build Slim Cart
- Paint Cabinets
- Replace Light-switch

#3 Master Bedroom
There isn't much left to complete in this space. Our wardrobe hardware is on the way. We still need nightstands; but I'm not going to buy any until I find exactly what I have in mind. In other words, this room may stay 90% complete for awhile.
To-do
- Purchase Nightstands
- Install Wardrobe Hardware
- Purchase & Hang a Full-Length Mirror
Install Laminate Flooring
Refinish & Paint WallsBuild WardrobesArt, Bedside Lamps, Rug
#4 Sunroom {specifically, the Office}
The Sunroom is our family room and where the "office" is located. This space has bugged me lately. There is too much open storage... and not enough closed storage. Some work needs to be done in this space; but the plan is an unknown at this point.
#5 Backyard
So, you might have noticed that the first 3 "projects" are mostly finished... and the 4th isn't a huge project. What will we be spending all our time on? The outdoors. We've purposely scheduled our indoor projects to be manageable and easily completed by spring.
To-do
- Trampoline
- Fire Pit
- Toy Shed
#6 Deck
The deck has two levels -- I'd like to spend some time working on both levels.
To-do
- Clean, Protect & Stain the Wood
- Outdoor Bar/Serving Space
- Play Spaces {sandpit, tool bench, etc.}
- Add Lighting
#7 Exterior
I'd really like to paint the shutters this year; but it's a big job. We'll see!
To-do
- Pressure Wash Siding
- Paint Shutters
- Replace Light
- New House Address Sign
Paint Rocking ChairsRemove Ivy
Your home is gorgeous! It has so much potential I loved reading everything that you have planned for it. Looking forward to seeing photos of the finished projects! 🙂
Thanks, Cassandra, so glad you stopped by 🙂
Love all the ideas! They are great! I want to start redesigning our house soon!
Thanks, Ashley! Truly, my house is like my hobby. It's what I work on when I want to relax {of course, sometimes home projects can be stressful; but overall, it's my "me" time}.
Wow! Your work is beautiful. You have a gift. Thanks for sharing. Wish I could get inspired to do more big projects, but I'm falling apart on the little ones....so can't do a big one yet. 🙂
Thanks, Leslie 🙂 I think I'm the opposite -- I do big projects and can't stay focused on small things!
I LOVE THE NAVY VANITY!!! I am a bit jealous now but am also motivated to start planning our own reno!!!
Thanks 🙂 I had been eyeing navy vanities for a long time before I finally started making over ours {it was hideous before!). So, so, pleased with it!!
Love your bathroom project so far. I did our nursery in navy and gold accents and it is my favorite room. The color is so classic and edgy. Your home is beautiful.
Thanks, Shea, I only used navy in accessories in our last home... and I'm loving using it on walls and furniture pieces here. Like you said, it's classic -- but edgy and dramatic, too.
Your home is beautiful! I love how organized you are about keeping track of your goals. Good luck with all your projects.
Thanks, Gina -- hopefully organization will lead to execution, ha!
You have a lovely home! Not only is this a great to do list for you, it also is a good way to feel like you're accomplishing things. Oh, how I love crossing things off the list! I'm tackling my office/spare bedroom right now, but it leads to so many more projects I want to do.
Thanks, Erin 🙂 I totally agree -- lists like this organize; but also help you see what you've accomplished.
Those all look like amazing plans! Isn't it amazing how the to-do list just never. seems. to. end. Seriously, every time I feel like we are close to be done, I come up with a whole other set of things I want to accomplish. It makes for great blogging material though 🙂
I love your bathroom; excited to see it all the way finished! And I'm excited to follow along with your outside projects, too--I definitely need some inspiration in that area!
Funny! I'd been thinking I need to look back through some of your outdoor play area things you've done for the kids 🙂
Love your house! You have a lot planned for this year!
Thanks, Tayler 🙂
Wow, your house is gorgeous!! I love the navy and marble together and think it is really striking with the gold. I am definitely checking out your home tour now because I love how you put colors together 🙂
Thanks, Autumn 🙂 I so appreciate your sweet comments!
