Warning! Ignore the mess!

Sooo - The only thing left of this renovation is the last couple floor thingis that will be in place on Friday - and to actually get in proper order, put up pictures and add the little touches that give the place, the home feeling. But I thought I would post the before/after pictures from the renovation we have been going on even with the huge mess hehe.

Ok.. Lets start with the hallway:

The hallway wardrobe:



I think the second room should be the bathroom:
Before: 

After: 


We decided to go with these corner walls you can close in to have more space. The bathroom is small - But it is enough for us for now. 

3rd room - is the livingroom: 

Before: 
 I am reusing this picture so you can see the doors into the livingroom - we have those removed.

After: 


The living room is pretty huge - It's just so messy right now since we had to move everything out of the hallway so that the wardrobe dude would be able to get around. 

Lets move to the kitchen... I just love our new kitchen.. The end price was insane.. But it is worth every penny!

Before: 



After:



And now the bedrooms. I don't have pictures from both of them - only the one we use, since the other one is filled with boxes still- but they are pretty much the same in size. Our bedroom has the extra wardrobe, and the black curtains. The other room has deep ark purple curtains, and no wardrobe. 

Before: 

This is bedroom 2

Bedroom 1:

After:


I haven't put the extra sheets on the lower part of the bed yet because we are going to buy a new bed soon, and I didn't want to spend money on buying the extra curtainssheet thingis for the bed. The wardrobe in the bedroom is devided in the middle - so we get each our own side. 

I guess the closet is the one room left. It is pretty hard to see the shapes, but lets give it a try :) 

Before: 


After:



That's it :) Here a sum up of everything that has been done to the place: 

  • All the wallpapers have been removed or covered. and then painted. Hallway - kitchen- livingroom and the closet are painted in gray shaded white. The bedrooms have a light purple color.
  • All the roofs have been covered and painted in white. 
  • The hallway -closet and the kitchten has had the floors removed, and has black oak floors in place. 
The doors to the livingroom and the kitchen has been removed. And the rest of them have been painted in white. - we are not allowed to paint the "outside" door cause of the color restrictions of the building.
  • The kitchen has been totaly redone. The old wood smelly cabintes were removed and replaces with white cabinets- granit stone bench - and stainless steel appliance. Oh and the we have a built in dishwasher which I find very handy hehe 
  • The bathroom has been also totaly renovated as you can see - we had to remove everything and redo the ground to have it as a approved safe wetroom. 
  • We changed the el system of the appartment. The old one couldn't handle all new el stuff. 
What is left to do (I know I mentined it once already lol)  - is the small floor thingis.. And we gotta get the rest of the things in place. Hang up pictures and so on. We are also going to buy a new bed as I mentioned. - and we gonna turn the extra bedroom to a guest room for now :) And when the weather is better, we are going to paint the balcony, and redo the floors there too. It is just too cold to think about that now..

Anyways :) That's it for now :)

  9. Hey, oh yes. I did see these! I was reading from my phone b/c I was out of town then forgot that I never commented. I love what you did. I love the kitchen the best. I love those modern clean lines. Tons of drawers and cabinets. The closet kinda reminds me of how we did ours. Looks like you put your touch on pretty much every part. How are you ever going to leave a place like that?
