Can you even believe it??? The home we coined Our Historic Wonderland is finally complete. Well, the construction is complete. My design vision is still just beginning BUT I can finally share the entire home we restored… from top to bottom. Wow what an incredible journey you guys have followed us on over the last year. As amazing as it is to be finished and actually living in our home, I am almost sad sometimes that the journey is over. It truly does not even seem that long ago when I posted that we had found the home and project of our dreams and that we would be selling the home that jumpstarted my blog. You all thought we had lost our minds. And I mean we kind of did too. But this house literally spoke to us from the moment we stepped into the front door on a freezing cold and pitch black Friday evening that November. From there our journey to creating Our Historic Wonderland began and you guys have supported us every single step of the way. I am still so excited to see where the interior design transformation will take me and I hope you will continue to follow along!
Here is one big ol’ tour of our post-construction home reveal and details on every single thing you could possibly ask about. So here’s a tiny little peek at where we began…

WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU CONTINUE TO FOLLOW ALONG ON OUR JOURNEY?
I’m speechless….
(in a really good way)
Why thank you sweet friend! You are such a doll for stopping by! XOXO
Alabaster looks so beautiful everywhere.. can you reveal which finish you selected on walls and what you chose for trim? Thank you!
Hi! Can you tell me the vendor/style/color of the wall tile on your laundry room? I didn’t see this in the info on this post or the laundry room reveal. Thanks!
E-mail me 🙂
Amazing! You have completed a forever dream of mine – To restore & reimagine an older home to a state of perfection… I am now a follower – can’t wait to see how you decorate all of those beautiful spaces 🙂
Wow thank you! Sweetest comment! I appreciate you so so much! XOXO
AHHHHmazing!!! Every detail! Wish I could tour this sucker in person! Love every choice!
You are AHHHmazing girlfriend!!! Thank you so much gorgeous! Love you girl! XOXO
O.M.G. It’s absolutely beautiful. I’m speechless. Stumbled upon your blog through Erin at Sunny Side Up. What a beautiful first post to start with! Looking forward to so much more from your blog!
Oh my goodness thank you!! I appreciate you following along so so much! XOXO
Your home is absolutely beautiful! I am obsessed with your Stardew/Uncertain Gray color, I am color challenged and having a vision for room decor is totally absent. I have painted my kitchen cabinets Annie Sloan French Linen and cannot even choose the color for the one wall that is a cross from the cabinets which has made me regret my cabinet color choice.
I admire the sensational job you did throughout you lovely home.
Thanks for sharing the beauty!
Im glad to see how well it turned out using Alabaster as wall and trim color. Are you happy with the look?
What a stunning home! What color do you paint the ceiling when you use Alabaster on walls and trims?
Where did you get your glass door knobs? What color are they? I just love your home!
When you paint walls and trim Alabaster are they both satin? What about doors are they painted with flat or satin! Thanks so much! I am definitely painting my room in these colors!
Love the calm vibe of this house. My basement is alabaster and sea salt with dark floors and looks great. I would like to use alabaster on my kitchen walls, trim and cabinets with inkwell on a french door leading into the kitchen. Do you think this will work with terra-cotta floors and St. Cecilia (beige, black, cream) granite that is already there?
What was the effect of mixing the uncertain gray and the star dew? Did it lighten the color or remove some of the blue? We painted our house star dew and I’m a little nervous about how blue it came out. Wondering if I should tone it down or not.
I’m wondering how you like Gossamer Veil after having it a while. Do you ever wish it was darker, or is it just right? Thank you!
Beautiful!! When you say window sashes, did you paint them or order them in that color?
Hi there! Such a dream home to renovate. I would love to have such a historical piece of property, but we decided to build a new home instead. I am curious what the color of the foundation that is painted gray? Thank you!
C
So beautiful! I love how you pulled those colors together! What color are the ceilings when you use alabaster on walls/trim-is it a white or is it alabaster too? (Not the colored ceilings obviously )
Thank you for sharing!
Love all the Alabaster. Did you use a different sheen for walls and trim?
