I’m almost embarrassed to tell you how long I’ve been working on the girls’ bedrooms. You can find the original posts under Project Week – two years ago! The final step was that they needed bedside tables. So last December my hair stylist donated a couple of matching tables for our cause. They are pretty [...]
I’ve been taking a break from soap for a few days and working on putting together the finishing touches for our half bathroom. You can see where I started here, and the sneak peek here. Yesterday, I went to Hobby Lobby and the Goodwill to pick up some items to decorate with. I’ll start with [...]
The bathroom project is coming along nicely! It looks totally different, and I love it! Just need to add the finishing touches. Here’s a sneak peek: As you can see, I’ve chosen a light turquoise for the walls. I don’t think my camera captured the true color, but you get the idea. I changed my [...]
I realize that I haven’t posted most of this week. I’ve started yet another home improvement project! It’s the smallest room in our house, aside from the closets, yet one of the most visited each day. The wallpaper border had been picked off in several places, and the baseboard was in desperate need of paint. [...]
Remember Project Week? Back in July, I think it was? I was working on re-decorating my daughters’ rooms for their birthdays. I almost finished. I’m still not completely done, but at least I’ve been working on them again. I finally finished painting their desk chairs today! The chairs were technically free since we had one [...]
The title says it all. I jumped in with both feet on these rooms, and I’m still not finished. My older daughter’s birthday is tomorrow, and we are hosting a party at our house in the afternoon. I am making the cake – and decorating it. The good news is that I have chairs for [...]
I was hoping to have a final reveal for you today, but I’m not quite ready. There are just a few finishing touches that need to be done on the Alien Green room (which is growing on me, by the way). Who knew that there was only one curtain panel in the package? I thought [...]
It’s been a rather un-exciting day for projects today. Not that I haven’t been working on them. The list of things I’ve accomplished today would bore you though, and there isn’t anything photo-worthy. I would much rather be able to show you the final reveal after we finish up tomorrow. It will be much more [...]
It’s been a rather long day. It would have been even longer if my friend Leslie hadn’t come over and helped out. She is an awesome painter! Experienced and fast. We worked on trim, painted the doors, and painted some furniture. (The dresser was mine when I was little, and my mom said they bought [...]
Well, we now have Ginormica Green walls. And by the look on my daughter’s face, I’d say she loves it!! My friend Leslie had to take care of vehicle issues today, so she wasn’t able to come paint, but she’s hoping to make an appearance tomorrow when we tackle the trim. And the younger one [...]
