I love before and afters.
It’s so instantaneously gratititous. (those are the longest two words I know by the way…try to work them into your vocab and you will instantly sound smarter!)
So I decided that it would be oh-so-helpful to put our before and after pictures in one single spot.
aka, Our Crib page.
Now you can tour our house in all it’s ‘under construction’ glory…plus see how far it’s come. I only wish I had about twenty seven more ‘before’ shots so that you can understand how much I we the boyfriend has done 🙂
Go check it out and then come back and tell me your favorite type of underwear…because I am random like that.

Love the new tab! Can’t wait to see how each space progresses! Oh, and my favorite underwear is big ol’ granny panties. painting a pretty little picture for you, aren’t I?
Kate says
do you mean gratifying? 😛 gratuitous means unnecessary!
Robyn C says
Katie, I love the new crib page before and afters.Jeremy in dishwasher space that’s funny. Underwear…

Alicia says

Love it!
So I would tell my mom my fav underwear is boyshorts
But I may or may not like thongs–the no underwear line has me hooked!

Seeing them side by side really shows the progress… awesome! And PS: I prefer boyshorts. But I do miss “Sunday Panties” – that’s what we called the little sily panties with ruffles when I was a little girl. I wish they made them for big girls!

the best undies ever are american eagle boyshorts…they are SUPER comfy and don’t give wedgies on this girl with child-bearing hips! i am doing mine in reverse order…going to check out the before & afters now! i can’t wait 🙂
Kim says
I love the new section. And, I love that you made a source list. You are so thoughtful to share all that information. =) (Although I’m a wee bit disappointed that those awesome green chairs are thrift store finds… will I ever get so lucky?)
LindseyT says
Katie – LOVE it! You two are quite the handy bunch! Your house has come a long way! And its amazing! Now can your boyfriend come teach my boyfriend how to be handy? I have a feeling that when we move into our new house that I will be the one doing all the projects! Thanks for sharing! oh….I would say granny panties too! Actually NO…Gilly Hicks underwear suite my fancy the most!
Shelley says
Love the before and afters! One question – why are there never any pics of your master bathroom? Fave undies = boyshorts.
lindsey says
Hey there! I happen to love before and afters as well! C’mon over and check out my blog. Your home is amazing! I love everything you’ve don.
Sarah says
Ooh yay! I love me some before and afters! I love them even more than boyshorts, which are my underwear of choice.
Mary Evers says
You can cut the tag off your duvet cover in the master bedroom. I promise…you won’t go to jail. HA!
allbowerpower says
Hi Mary – I KNOW! I am horrible at cutting the tags off…and then when I do, it strikes me that I have no idea how to clean the dern thing. Just awful. And don’t worry – Jeremy says the same thing – ALL THE TIME!
Thanks for the reminder though…pray for me to get some courage!
XO – Katie
Mary Evers says
I think anyone that’s eats bacon the way you do has plenty of courage. HA!
Have a great weekend.
