I am not sure how two major projects here and here intersected in my life….but they did. I was doing so good for about 9 days and 13 hours into the new year, confident that I would only work on one project at a time. Confident that I would not start something new, until I finished…
We are moving right along with updates to the craft room. The bulk of the updates ( hubby stuff) are done and now I am just working on the finishing touches. Remember the before I shamefully showed you a couple of weeks ago here ….yikes! Seriously out of control. Here’s some of the updates that will…
As soon as those 2013 projects got completed a couple of weeks ago here, my husband and I couldn’t wait to work on the first project of the year, which was long overdue…..My craft room/ His Office. This space is above our garage and when we were building our home it wasn’t being used for…
For the record, I am not a fancy person. My dining room table is probably more dressed up for the holidays this year then I will be, and …..I like it that way. I also like that a gal in jeans like me, who just got done feeding her donkeys on the farm, could sit…
I have never told you this before but I have decorator paralysis ……..especially when it comes to my Dining Room and Living Room . Because part of my therapy is to tackle one room at a time we will talk about the Living Room at a later date. I am not entirely sure how it…
For the record, I am envious of people who tell me they can take naps during the day…… and really envious of the one’s who can do it with noise and distractions around them and a smile on their face. Like my dear husband, it can be a Sunday afternoon and he’ll say “Honey, I…
This year I had to make sure that the Dining Room didn’t upstage my “Greenacres” inspired Living room tree, so I decked my halls down with neutral colors of cream, soft golds and shimmering silver accents. I mean come on now, it’s not like a paper mache reindeer sprayed in brilliant silver, glass balls scattered with some mercury…
Note: If you watched TV from 1965 to 1971 you will probably appreciate today’s post. If not, you will have absolutely no idea what I am talking about but can still enjoy the pictures. Remember the show Greenacres? You know, Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor. The couple who moved from New York City to a…
In case you missed my favorite room of the house over at Kim’s Favorite Room Series a few weeks ago, I wanted to share my Keeping Room, aka “Mom’s Zone”. Keeping Rooms are generally located right off the kitchen and back in the day it was used to gather the family and keep them warm,…
When my son suggested that he wanted a Star Wars bedroom I told him there were two requirements. First, the money to make the changes couldn’t send mommy and daddy into another Galaxy. Second, he had to wake up looking at Anakin Skywalker for at least a year. He agreed, so I set out on a mission to…
Well we are down to the wire with two weeks left for the big Media Room reveal here on August 27th. If you missed any of my updates, you can catch up on my progress here. Since the last update I was able to finish painting the room….. well almost. At the 11th hour, I…
I wasn’t sure what to highlight in this post, the changes I have made in the media room or how “crazy” I am. Yes I called me crazy, and if I didn’t want to offend anyone with my potty mouth I would call me a goofball too! Let me explain. I left you last with these images of my…
