Meet Mulletacre

This is the adorable little shotgun caterpillar in Inman Park that will, hopefully, become a lovely butterfly someday. I love it already but can't wait to do some work on it so it becomes something even cooler over the years. This blog hopes to follow that transformation, with the additional fun of it being done by two people who don't have the first idea of how to proceed in home improvements. If you have ideas or tips, feel free to share! How about a small tour to start? Open the door and come on in...The fireplace divides the front two rooms of this 1920 house. Those are heart pine floors that have been refinished since...I'm thinking that this drywall is gonna go, leaving a lovely exposed fireplace underneath so it doesn't bully the room so much.
You can walk around the fireplace on either side.
Here's a peek at the kitchen...Needs some love! But it will be fun to customize things. Here's where the addition begins, right after the kitchen: Don't let the picture fool you--those are laminate floors. And that's a screened porch beyond. Want to go upstairs?I have some cool ideas for these steps. Here's the lofted bedroom on the top floor.That is a lovely porch there. You can see the Midtown skyline (especially cool at night!) and apparently all the fireworks as well. Let's go back downstairs. And go out to the first floor porch...Mason will see herself out, thanks...A pocket-sized yard...Good for those with a mowing phobia. And there's a little patio under the porch.If we go back in, there's another set of steps going down to the ground floor level room...
It's a small room.
The second bathroom is down here too.
OK, this is a good start! Welcome home!
