house to call home

okay, here are the pics of the interior of my home {in it's raw form, pre coty-fied}

*

short term -paint all window trimmings, staircase (oak stair tops exempt, we'll refinish those) and baseboardswhite

*

long term -over-haul kitchen, man cave bathroom, and utility room. oh, and any ideas on how to remove the glaze from the brick on the fire place? i want it red again.

*

*no, the floors on the main level are not black...just really really really may as well be black dark chocolate stain over-top the original oak and scuffed up in spots (for a faded look)

*

*these pics were taken before we scrubbed the tar out of the place, just incase you were wondering...
