Hey Everybody! How’s everyone’s week going? The LOML is in China this week and I’m not used to it. He travels about once every decade. While he’s gone, I’m getting some stuff done. I’m trying to take advantage of the warm weather (minus the pollen…it’s killing me!) so I got outside and did some […]

THE READING NOOK ~ The bookcases
I’m so excited to be working on our cozy reading nook in our master bedroom. So far, we’ve built the bench. You can read all about it here. I found the black cubicle at IKEA in the damaged section in the front of the store. Fifteen dollars is quite a deal!! Next we built two […]
MASTER CLOSET REVEAL ~ Organized, Clean, & Beautiful!
I’m so excited to show you our new master closet. But before I do, a little reminiscing. Here’s the before. Very disorganized and cluttered. I hated walking into it every day. After we emptied out all the stuff and took down the wire shelving, we filled in all the holes with spackling, sanded forever, scrubbed […]
CLOSET RENOVATION ~ Take Two ~ Storage bins
Our house is in full swing now that everyone is in school. I love summer break where we spend family time but I also love getting back into a regular schedule and working on our to-do list. To recap, we’ve been working on our master bedroom closet. It was just a wire shelving mess […]
CLOSET RENOVATION ~ pipe shelving
We’re slowly but surely progressing with our master bedroom closet. If you remember from my last closet post, we decluttered and organized all the crap important items in the closet. We’ve also painted the walls a cheery yellow, and laid engineered wood floors just like our upstairs hallway. After we finished this part of the project, […]
AN ORGANIZED CLOSET ~ trapped in the house
In January, NC was bombarded with about 2 inches of snow. (insert sarcastic snicker) Believe it or not, we were stuck in the house for a few days. The two inches of snow came Saturday morning. So we took a walk in the new beautiful white stuff and froze our little butts off. Church was […]

SECOND BATHROOM REVEAL!!
The second bathroom redo (or what we lovingly call the “Fishy Bathroom”) is finally complete. With summer vacation, ultimate frisbee games, family time, and life in general, this project has taken way longer than I wanted. This is what we started with. Now you know why we call it the “Fishy Bathroom”. As our kids grow older, […]
THE TWO LEGGED TABLE STRIKES AGAIN
If you read my last post about my two legged table here, you learned about our plan and inspiration for the half table going into our laundry room for a little extra workspace. We got a lot of work done on it this past weekend. Way more work than we wanted or planned on. Awhile […]
