Ree Drummond

My sister Betsy life in Seattle. She didn’t get to vacation household to Oklahoma for a calendar year-moreover in the course of the early pandemic times, and by the time Alex’s wedding day rolled around previous yr, she was prepared for a awesome, extensive pay a visit to! Lengthy tale quick, that go to turned into more visits through last summer, and by fall she was paying out lots of time below. And I got to see my nephew, Elliot, a whole lot additional—I skipped him!

One more lengthy tale shorter: past slide Betsy and I made the decision to purchase a household with each other in Pawhuska and correct it up so that she’d have a property base right here in Oklahoma whenever she visits. It’ll double as an extra position in city for mates and family members (and movie crews!) to continue to be as desired, and in excess of time we just begun calling it “Sister House.” That name has stuck!

Listed here are some glimpses within! We will maintain you posted as we get items concluded in excess of the following pair of months.

Ad – Go on Examining Underneath

This is the entrance of the home! We stayed rather genuine to the authentic, as we did not want to make any sweeping changes (like portray the brick white) that may well be jarring to the sweet, peaceful community. We have some landscaping to do and want to paint the entrance doorway a neat shade. Any ideas?

This is the entrance to the dwelling, and it truly is specially entertaining simply because this is a new doorway that wasn’t there just before! It was earlier a coat closet, but we busted by way of and created this a walkway to the kitchen. There is certainly so a great deal additional light-weight than there was just before!

We stored the hearth and aged created-ins the property already experienced, but included doors on the decreased cupboards and gave the created-ins a fresh coat of paint. This’ll be a nice, cozy room!

We had to change the stair railing and went with the common appear. There ended up loads of techniques we could go here, together with a modern black/iron railing…but we wished to hold it homey and standard. We have a quite runner for the stairs. It is kinda pink!

We had this uncomfortable space less than the stairs that we thought of turning into a concealed area, concealed pet area, or hidden wine cellar…but we really don’t need to conceal, Betsy would not have a canine, and we are not wine connoisseurs, ha! So we just extra shelves for cookbooks and matters.

On the other side of the stairs is the eating space, which applied to be a living place! We extra very simple paneling to the walls and really like the lightness and brightness of the smooth white paint. Cortney McClure in Bartlesville, Oklahoma aided us with furnishings and fixtures, and I like these pendants!

We have a few of glass-entrance cupboards in the kitchen, and these are the doorways. I really like the curved profile and the quarter-sawn oak. To me, quarter-sawn oak generally appears to be like older and far more “vintage” than frequent oak. It can be also pricier, so we just used it for a couple of touches listed here and there.

The Outdated Upstairs Review!

This is likely my preferred area in the property. Cortney, Betsy, and I were all in settlement that the outdated (circa 1980) plaid carpet wanted to continue to be, and Cortney instructed deciding upon a tremendous dark navy to coordinate with the colours of the plaid. I definitely really like this space, which is off of Elliot’s bedroom. Wonderful spot to hang and check out previous 80’s movies!

The mystery to going with a dark, moody color like this is to go all in: partitions, doorways, trim, even ceiling! And can we chat about the excellent condition this outdated carpet is in? I consider we ought to get it cleaned just in scenario, haha, but it was so very well taken treatment of by the many years.

The Light-weight, Bright Variation

This is the corresponding bunk space on the other side of the upstairs. We’re retaining it dazzling and light-weight, and Cortney had the notion of wallpapering the ceiling and upper portion of the partitions. Will continue to keep you posted on that!

Pretty and Predictable

For a person of the bogs upstairs, we went with white/grey marble and white cabinets. A minimal of a secure alternative, but we like it a lot…and there are a great deal of non-white areas all around the residence to increase some shade and enjoyment!
