I guess it really should be summer cleaning since it is in the 90s out. Whatever the case, the time to get organized has arrived. I've admitted I might have a slight problem with Target and various craft stores. Due to my shopping habit the craft room closet was looking a little shabby with all my recent purchases. I have all this wonderful space to store things and had great intentions to keep everything perfectly organized true to my OCD tendencies. As is the case when there are too many … [Read more...]
another brick in the wall
The front of our house is very traditional which is not the look we are going for on the inside so I've been itching to change it. I've been saying I wanted to paint the bricks in the front for months. The hubby thought I was nuts but I found the photographic evidence I needed to show him that painting the brick was exactly the way we needed to go. Painting brick is a very controversial topic but for our style it really fits. This is what our place currently looks like complete with crazy … [Read more...]
master bedroom dreams
I'm jumping the gun and looking at master bedroom ideas. Why do I even bother when our master bedroom currently looks like this?! Relaxing looking room, right?

dollar bin
Target is a dangerous place for me. I should not be allowed in the store without supervision and I really should not be allowed in with either of my two best friends. X and S are bad influences and we just act as enablers. Last night, S and wandered the aisles of Target while waiting for our takeout for our girls' night in. I found these little aqua greek key treasures in the dollar bin. Perfect score for organizing small items for the office/craft room. I can't help browsing the dollar bins for … [Read more...]
be our guest – guestroom reveal
We've never had a proper guest room since our last house only had two bedrooms. Our guests used to be crammed in a tiny room with a full bed, large desk, dresser, bookcase and cat furniture all jammed in one room. Doesn't exactly sound inviting, does it? With our new space, I set out to remedy the situation since we are expecting guests at the end of April. My dear friend Patti's husband, Bill, is coming to visit. Our first official guest in the new house.This is what we started with. Original … [Read more...]
