craft room paint color
I've had a bunch of requests about the paint color of my craft room in the past few days. Unfortunately, a lot of the readers who have asked are no reply bloggers and I cannot get back to them.

Take a look at this great post from Ask Anna on how to fix that so bloggers can reply to you.

This is the view of our family room towards the main part of the house. … [Read more...]
subway tile backsplash – installation is not so bad!
I'm so excited about this project. I laid tile and so far so good!We started our kitchen renovation last December when we gutted the kitchen and started slowly rebuilding it. Since April we have had an almost complete kitchen. It has been fully functional but really needed the finishing touches. I was getting quite tired of looking at the random patched up walls. The hubby was so hesitant to let me tackle this but I'm so glad we decided to do it ourselves. These are the first three tiles I have … [Read more...]
