So I finally took pics of our bedroom! (a million!!- sorry!) Here’s what it looked like when we first moved in. Scary, I know. The curtains were leftover from our old house & we had to hang them for privacy until I could get longer ones. (They were one of the last things we added […]
November 17, 2009Well, since it’s Thursday & we’re finished with our kitchen & I received a special gift in the mail, I thought I’d join Tablescape Thursday on Between Naps on the Porch! This table setting was all about simplicity. No tablecloth, white linen napkins and an easy combination of our daily Pottery Barn dishes paired with […]
November 5, 2009(Click for Part I: The Living Room/ Dining Room , Part II: The Family Room) warning: I use the word “love” a lot in this post because I’m just so happy with the space. Well, I finally took some photos of our finished kitchen. You’ve probably seen lots of of midstage pics, but I have […]
November 3, 2009Every year we have a crazy adult (if you can call us “adults”) Halloween party with a theme.

Kids get such […]
October 23, 2009So, I called the company that I bought the liquid stainless from –they were really nice & even offered to send me my money back— to find out what product we’d need to get the paint off of our stove. (If you didn’t read yesterday’s post & are unsure of what the “appliance saga” is, […]
October 21, 2009There will be no pretty “after” pictures in this post. I seriously ruined my kitchen today. Wanting stainless steel appliances and loathing my “bisque” fridge and dishwasher, I started researching cheaper options. I got SO excited when I read about the product, a “liquid” stainless steel! (I haven’t listed the brand because I don’t want […]
October 19, 2009Here’s our sad little front entry when we bought the house: We’ve been those neighbors that move into a neighborhood and have JUNK out all the time because our house has been undergoing so many renovations: demo stuff from the basement, carpet remnants, yard debris, and just trash… I’ve had paint samples along the side […]
