The last week of June, my mom and sister came up. We had one bedroom that was in really rough shape that I didn't have the energy to do. So, hubby patched the plaster, Christine put up textured wallpaper, and I painted. Then we moved furniture. All in all, we knocked it out in about 2 days! Talk about exhausting!
BEFORE
AFTER
My family left Sunday, and Chris and I cleaned for two days. Like baseboards, windowsills etc. nitty gritty cleaning, due to the fact the photographer was coming on Tuesday. Of course I went overboard, I mean, it's not like you'll see dust in the photos, but part of me felt like it had to be all DONE. The photographer spent about 2 hours here, and the listing went live yesterday.
The new bathroom
There are a few errors in the listing, and I'm sure we can get that straightened out. I'm not overly exctied about the description- are more details better? Or is there a method to saying less? There were also duplicate photos listed, which is a pet peeve of mine. But, the ball is rolling...
Our bedroom
this is a small bedroom off our room, which we have turned into a dressing room.
So, please say a prayer for the house to sell quickly! I'd like toget down to Pa. before school starts.Hugs, Lee
UPDATE- we booked our first showing after just one day on the market, and not even a sign out yet. Let's hope this is a sign of things to come!!

Hi
I am a friend of Thelma's. Your house looks lovely, good job on the makeover. Bury a statue of St. Joseph near the For Sale sign. You can find the instructions on the internet. Good Luck.

I will say lots of prayers to St. Joseph for you:) And the house looks really great - hope you are doing well. (I know very well how stressful it is to sell a house when you really want to be somewhere by a certain time)
It looks beautiful, love, love, love the bathroom. Keeping my fingers crossed and saying many prayers. Hope it sells quickly for you. Take care.
