I mean, the living/dining room has some wall art and rug/curtains/pillows. Its not fancy, but it's comfy and cozy. C's room is painted and such but we haven't hung up any of her art. Our room is.... well, it exists. The kitchen and bath need a major reno from their pink vintage glory, so we don't really bother there yet. We've been here less than a year though and have a LOT of work to do. The yard and back porch are taking precedence this year.</p> <p>lol. This is one of the reasons we probably would never buy a massive house. Less to clean, less to decorate. Not gonna lie, I don't know what I'd do with all that space. I don't have the energy to figure it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated/page/2#post-2127044 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 14:52:35 +0000 ShootingStar 2127044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kind of, though it's still kind of bare in some parts. We moved in last July and some things are done-ish, and some I haven't even started. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated/page/2#post-2126896 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 12:54:55 +0000 edelweiss 2126896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope. far from it. we moved to the house in september. i tell people it's 30% furnished and decorated. it will probably stay that way until the kids are older. i like having the open space where i don't worry about anything getting trashed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated/page/2#post-2126825 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 11:58:46 +0000 mrsjyw 2126825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The two boys' rooms, basement, dining room are all decorated. The rest of the house is a hodge/podge and we've been here almost six years! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2126821 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 11:55:09 +0000 Anya 2126821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hardly.. the only complete room is the baby's room (and I'm sure she really appreciates it :silly: ). Everything is painted and furnished, it's a matter of wall hangings and other decorative touches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2126734 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 10:46:02 +0000 .twist. 2126734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kinda? I am slowly adding pieces here and there. We still have a lot of furniture from when we lived on our own; hand me down stuff that needs to be replaced, eventually. </p> <p>I just bought a few pieces for our main living area and I'm starting to feel like it's almost complete, with the exception of a few needed art pieces! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2126660 Mon, 30 Mar 2015 10:22:19 +0000 WinterBee 2126660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: Most of our house is decorated, the one room completely done is the bathroom. We have lived in our house for about 10 months and have done a ton of work on it, so it's a work in progress. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103543 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 09:13:32 +0000 LuLu Mom 2103543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we first moved in almost 5 years ago I decorated right away with the help of my mom, now I have been slowly re-decorating each room a little at a time to be more my style. My kitchen, guest bath, the girls' rooms are all done. I did a little decorating in the living room recently, so I'm happy with the wall art, but I want a new entertainment center, new carpet, it needs a fresh coat of paint, ect. to be done. Master bedroom I want new bedding and new paint. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103541 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 09:13:04 +0000 snowjewelz 2103541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really... All our walls are bare after living in it for almost 2 years. I've only been able to commit to putting something up on 1 wall all this time! Only DD's room has wall prints &amp; decals! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103538 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 09:12:07 +0000 erwoo 2103538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our was slightly smaller (3 levels) and I found it so hard to decorate, especially after we had kids. I wish we spent more time on it before we had kids. Hopefully after we move back and the kids are older we can actually do something with the plain white walls. We hung a few things then but that was about it. Totally boring... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103529 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 09:07:46 +0000 Corduroy 2103529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no, if we were getting grades for decorating I would get an F. We almost nothing up except two decorations from LO1s first birthday.... and she just turned 2. Other than that we've hung one picture. That was a major ordeal. We made need therapy. We have issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103501 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 08:52:35 +0000 twodoghouse 2103501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Downstairs, yes, although it's certainly not the pinnacle of stylish decor. The spare bedrooms upstairs and the finished basement are just a mishmash of extra furniture and blank walls. Honestly, I'm not great at decorating and it's just not a huge priority for me so I'm ok with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103498 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 08:50:52 +0000 avivoca 2103498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most rooms are decorated. I need to paint the kitchen and get more decor for that room and also finish the edging in the master bedroom before I hang anything else up in there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103494 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 08:47:48 +0000 ellewoods84 2103494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha no! We moved into our new house when LO was 6 weeks old and she is now 10 months old and I am just starting to decorate! Our family room is done and most of LO room, but we haven't painted or anything yet. Work in progress......want to tackle the dining room next. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103476 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 08:37:18 +0000 fancyfunction 2103476@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the most part but I'm always changing things up with new finds - I like to keep things fresh. We haven't done the family room yet bc we want to repaint and get carpet this summer. There's a spare bedroom that's just sitting there too with the door closed for now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103400 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 07:44:52 +0000 Alivoo01 2103400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! We're terrible decorators. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103392 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 07:43:06 +0000 Anagram 2103392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: that's us! (or rather, my husband). He's super cheap and it's painful for him to spend money, so we decorate verrrrrrryyyyy slowly and buy one thing at a time, and space them out a lot!</p> <p>We still have our whole bedroom to do (I want a new headboard, side tables, and a new curtain and rug), and in the living room I want a rug and a new dining table. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103381 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 07:34:04 +0000 krispi 2103381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're working on the nursery right now, so that room looks like a construction zone. The other rooms are all mostly decorated but still need some paint and finishing touches. The kitchen, living room, and dining room are all one big open space, and it's the most finished. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103317 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 06:03:14 +0000 looch 2103317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's a work in progress, I feel that decoration happens organically and changes over the years. I am always rearranging, tweaking, changing things out to suit our changing lifestyle.</p> <p>My problem is that I am cheap. I think you can absoultely have a decorated house if you're willing to spend the money, but I am not, so it takes time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103290 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 02:47:55 +0000 lamariniere 2103290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hotchildinthecity: @Greentea: Same feelings here! Our place is on the smaller side (about 1500 sq ft), and it's definitely not a forever home, but I cannot stand to live in a place that feels undone or temporary. </p> <p>Our walls are decorated as much as they can be and I feel like it feels mostly put together. There are always little things that I like to tweak and adjust, but on the whole, I'm pretty satisfied. The next project is to change out the master bedding and I will feel a lot more satisfied when that is done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103287 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 02:05:35 +0000 shopaholic 2103287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sort of! It's been a slow progress over the course of 3+ years. But since having LO, it's been more of clutter control working around all her stuff. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103286 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 01:59:54 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2103286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BandDmommy: No :sad: It's taking so long, it's getting embarrassing! The funny thing is, I actually have a few things I can put on the walls (like a huge mirror I snagged ages ago and recent watercolors I acquired) but we just haven't come around to it :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103270 Wed, 11 Mar 2015 00:15:45 +0000 HLK208 2103270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kind of? We've been in our house for 2 years and it's come a long way this past year! Still has some blank spaces though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103262 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 23:55:47 +0000 sunny 2103262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sort of. We have been slowly adding things over the last 6 years! :-P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103256 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 23:20:41 +0000 youboots 2103256@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, slowly. I need to order some large prints for the main level, which I will do when we get our newborn photos backs. Our master bedroom needs some items hung. I'd love to get a new couch, but ours is so comfortable. M needs a nice desk. But I'm happy with it overall. It's a work in progress. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103243 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 22:40:30 +0000 Greentea 2103243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For sure. I actually think it really important. It is a work in progress, but I am constantly considering how to better it. I practice feng shui and always have before I even knew that's what I was doing. I spend a lot of time home with LO and the better I can make my space, the better I feel my life improves (can improve).</p> <p>I have lots of art, plants, carefully considered furniture. I'd love to have unlimited budget for it, but you know- that's life, and that's (one of) the (many) point(s). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103228 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 22:20:11 +0000 chopsuey 2103228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nope! the house is completely furnished, but not decorated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103222 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 22:15:48 +0000 Freckles 2103222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>More or less. I'm working on the kids' rooms this week. I don't believe in decorating all at once upon moving in, but i also dislike empty houses! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103220 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 22:10:20 +0000 Mrs. Chocolate 2103220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does kids toys count as decorated? Like you the kids rooms are the best looking for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-house-decorated#post-2103219 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 22:07:31 +0000 rattles 2103219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, but we close on Thursday, and I can't wait! New furniture and decor delivery begins Friday! </p>
