As of tomorrow we will have been living in this house for 5 months. We still have several projects on the go, including an almost completed boy’s bedroom, dining room and kitchen. With nothing more accomplished in these spaces, and our list of things to do outside this summer growing longer by the minute, I [...]
As much as we’d love to be sharing all of our Christmas decorating with you right now (it’s not up yet!), we’ve got other things to share with you. Fun things like sharing what are sure to become BEFORE photos of our new BACKSPLIT! Now do remember that these are Realtor photos and that the [...]
**Warning: this post is very PINK. If you have an aversion to PINK – or even PURPLE – look away.** We’ve mentioned it a few times in the last several months. We’ve said we’d do it. We’ve said it’s coming. Now we’re really doing it. Re-doing the girls room, that is. It really doesn’t need [...]
After a busy {but FUN!} long weekend away in Niagara Falls, we don’t have any new projects to report…at least not today. Instead we will share what we came up with after briefly rearranging the living room (we have friends coming to visit this weekend…Am I the only one who feels the desire to give guests something new to look [...]
Well, it’s mostly updated. Lol. Considering we just re-hauled the entire thing last year, it seems a little silly to be updating it already. But there just simply wasn’t enough… ‘personality’. So we’ve added half-cup pulls on the drawers, track lighting and lighter paint. After some discussion we will be adding pendant lights over the [...]
With our attempts to lighten up our living and dining rooms over the last few months (the coffee table, armoire, hutch, etc.), the dining room table and chairs were left looking a little, well, sad. Hubby wants to paint them. I agree. But it’s about minus 10 degrees (Celsius) here this week and snowing. With [...]
Well, we lit up the hallway anyway! We posted awhile back about our front hall progress from ‘teenie tiny’ to ‘ah, much better’. There are still a few projects left to finish (does it ever end really?) like sanding and refinishing the hardwood and putting down quarter round and painting the remainder of the ceiling and [...]
As promised we are updating you with a photo of our graphic statement wall with the crown moulding. But first here is the wall before: We have a T-shaped hallway and this is one end of it. The kitchen doorway is to the right and the front door to the left. And now the after: What [...]
****THIS POST HAS BEEN UPDATED WITH SUNNY-DAY PHOTOS!!! **** The sun came out for about ten minutes on Black Friday – of all days! So we quickly snapped some new photos. Enjoy! It is finally finished! That giant piece that is our buffet and hutch is done…and looking beautiful, I might add. First let me apologize [...]
