St. George Condo Remodel

The complete remodel of our St. George

condo hasn't been shown yet on my blog

so I decided it was about time to get it done.

I had showed you my reclaimed wood table 

with whitewashed pedestals and French

script settees.

I also shared a little bit about the first tile

backsplash I did all by myself.  Click here to

see that.

Those were all little parts of a complete

remodel, taking the 4 bedroom condo down to 

the sheetrock, replacing all the flooring

and cabinets and painting and redecorating

everything.

It was a long distance project as St. George

is about 4 hours from our home so it took

some time to complete it.

We had purchased a new couch for the

condo, but after purchasing it, it was

sold out from under us, so I chose to 

keep our leather sectional which was in

great shape.  

But we added a lot of new furniture like this

new sideboard.

The living room, entry, dining area and kitchen

all had dark wood flooring installed.

A new fireplace facing and metal mantel

were added.

The kitchen and dining area were all new

with all of the furniture and accessories.

The French script furniture and

rug were items I found online.

I made the curtains in the living and dining area

myself, adding these diamond accents to the pleats.

The fabric is a flocked damask pattern over a

refined burlap style fabric.  I love the contrasts

of the flocking and burlap.

Contemporary style in the new drum lights

adds a flare with dangling crystals.

We placed one large one over the dining

table and two smaller ones over the bar.

We moved the television into the main room

and placed it on this stone table that we

had before the remodel.

 These fun burlap and ribbon lamps

flank the television.

The master bedroom has the softest bedding

from Anthropologie and a white-washed wood

and leather four poster bed.

All of the bedroom furniture was previously

in the master bedroom.

We painted the room a pale aqua that makes

it feel like a vacation home.

The master bedroom has a freestanding tub

manufactured by Whitewaterinc.com

my husband's business.

The walls are also manufactured by his

business, Tyvarian.com

We installed bowls on top of the

Tyvarian counters in the bathroom.

The condo has three bathrooms and they

all got a complete remodel.

I love the story behind this luxurious bed.

It was a brass bed that I had here for

years but I wasn't in love with it.

I decided to give it away, but my friend 

didn't want it either.

Then I had the brilliant idea to try and paint

it as I wasn't going to keep it anyway.

A quick paint of aqua and I was now in love

with this old bed.

My friend fell in love with it too, but it was

too late - now it wasn't going anywhere.

I made these curtains also and we painted this room

a pale aqua too.

 It is amazing what a sponge brush and a little 

paint can do!

The third bedroom got this new mirrored and tufted

bed.  This is my favorite bed.

Fun pillows and a gauze bedspread

make this a truly romantic room.

 

This is the fourth bedroom which pretty much 

remained the same except for new paint and baseboards.

This is the chest and mirror in the entry hall.

It is amazing what a total transformation

the condo has made.  Originally I had

asked for new countertops but they 

never got done.  I am so glad we didn't do

the counters as I would never have done

the whole remodel and the old oak 

cabinets really needed to go!

It usually feels tropical in St. George as

we have palm trees there and it rarely freezes,

a huge change from 4 hours north.

 It is a fun place to escape to 

during the cold spring months.

Now with the remodel, it is even

more fun to escape there.

A newer addition was this gorgeous daybed

added to the master.  My friend purchased it and found

that it didn't fit in her room.  She couldn't get it 

through the doorway.

She decided to take it back but I had asked her

to lend it to me

for my daughter's bridals so I couldn't let 

it go back to the store and I had to

find a place for it.

It fits perfectly at the end of the bed in the

master bedroom.  Glad I had a place to put it!!

Wow, it felt wonderful to get this long distance

remodel project finished 

and it feels great to finally get

this project posted.

I will be posting this with

Metamorphosis Monday
