Month: May 2014

Last weekend I made a quick trip up to NH to work on some projects at Jason’s house. Along with working on getting the girl’s bedroom ready so we can stay there on our next visit (which I will share pictures of hopefully next week) we also made some progress in the kitchen and dining room.

Well, it’s been almost 11 months since we moved in and we finally have our kitchen pretty much finished! We did it in two parts – (you can read about part one, which included replacing the appliances, painting the trim and cabinetry and removing that upper cabinet that awkwardly broke up the space) we did that pretty much as soon as we moved in and then we saved back up for part two which finally got finished up last weekend!

Well, I am still working on the detailed post of our new kitchen with the full source list but I figured today I would at least share a few pictures. My goal is to get the full post finished up and posted tomorrow. For now though, here are a few pictures:

I hope to be back tomorrow with lots and lots more photos and a detailed source list.

I
hope you all are having a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! We are so
grateful to all those who have served our country and fought for our
freedom. We just wanted to pop in with a little sale for the day. We are
offering 25% off everything in stock in our shop including our Chalkboard Clubs!

God Bless America,
Land that I
love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Thru the night with a light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies,
To the oceans, white with foam
God bless America, My home sweet home. 

 – Irving Berlin

I hope you all have a lovely Memorial Day Weekend!

In the last couple of weeks we have finally gotten around to adding a few small details to our gray guest bedroom. First, we did kind of a rug switch-a-roo. We moved this rug up from our living room and into here. Then we took the playroom rug and moved it down to the living room (it’s larger than this gray and white rug and therefore fits much more nicely in the living room than the gray and white one did – it was a little too small for the living room even though I really loved how it looked).
