Creative Home Expressions: Home Tour

Welcome to our home! This is our down-sized and empty nester home ~ a condo in the Dayton, Ohio area, which we moved into in September 2011.

I will just update the post with new pictures as things change.

Here is the front entrance. There is some overhead coverage here {up to about the middle of the table}.

We’ve got enough room here for our little table and chair set. This picture is from just before Thanksgiving, 2011, but it was a nice sunny day so I’m using this one.

Let’s start here by the front door. The entry foyer is not very big, but I was able to fit my hall tree here.

There are light switches galore in this little area {9 to be exact} and I only know what two of them work.

This condo is basically all open and the first room you see from the door is the living room. We have a gas fireplace and all my furniture is from the living room in my old house. The chair and ottoman had been in our master sitting room, but with the white slipcovers they fit right in fine. I got the drapes for this room from Ballard Designs.

Just off the living room is the sunroom. Lots of windows and some great light comes in through this room. This room has become our TV room, although I like it for reading or playing with my granddaughter.

Adjoining the living room is the dining area. This houses the kitchen table and chairs from the old house and a painted chest I had in my den. I also have my French dresser {makeover here} in between the two rooms. Two counter stools (which I got at the Frontgate outlet for $105.00 for both} at the breakfast bar allow for additional seating and also keep it casual, especially since it is just the two of us now.

Back out and into the kitchen. Not much light but we got under cabinet lights that I hope my hubby will install soon. Meanwhile, I have lamps everywhere.
