Hi, Bailey. I just took a stroll through page 1 of your ideabook and see that your style is transitional, but you do like a bit of quirk. You've got the perfect house for it, clean and simple, it can go any way you want. First, select furniture with an eye to maximize the views. Here's a room from your ideabook that does that. Once you've decided what pieces you need and where they will go, find the room in your ideabook that has the exact feeling you want and use it to inform the styles and colors you choose, Put everything you're thinking of buying (along with stuff you already have) on an inspiration board, then swap things in and out as you work to complete your design. Don't buy any big stuff till your design is mostly complete. Nothing worse than falling in love with and buying a rug, and then finding there is nothing else in the whole wide world that goes with it.

Why don't you live in the house for a while and get a feel for things. The curtains are bright but if they are still good quality / newish it would be a very expensive exercise to replace them (I have just spent a few thousand just on three rooms), you can always add a few red cushions or a red toned throw over your existing couch or a rug with a red tones in to it, to tone the red down, if required. Repainting the walls is cheaper than replacing curtains and a piece of art with red tones may also help. As far as furniture is concerned it would depend on what you like style wise. Why not send us a photo after you have moved in. You may find some of your concerns disappear once you are in and settled.

We’ve renovated and are just waiting on the guy to come and fit our laundry cabinets..... he said he was coming one day.... then didn’t show up, gave another day and time ...didn’t show up...and then said last Thursday 8am... well it’s now 1.45am Mon morning and he hasn’t had the decency or courtesy to even ring or return our calls .... so we are now in the same position as you... I see hes here on houzz so, maybe a review will warn others ... anyway good luck with your laundry!!

WOW! What an amazing transformation. I love the white.
