A dresser in the making
Remember when I blogged about my hand-me-down dresser? I haven’t forgotten about it, promise. As it turns out, I was apparently on a white paint terror this weekend. All furniture in our house should’ve made a run for it, because I was having a ball with my paint brush. Besides our staircase, what was I painting? This beautiful dresser I’d recently inherited from my Momma’s [...]
Still in the works: painted staircase
Morning! I had two projects that I vowed to finish this weekend, and come Sunday night, I’m 1 for 2. The painted staircase is so, so close to being done, but it’s not 100% ready for its grand reveal. BUT, I do have progress pictures, and I promise I will show-off the finished project sometime this week. You see, paint takes awhile to dry, [...]

In short, we visited the farmer’s market, read magazines in the sun (or rather, Kyle mowed the [...]

I SPY! Small Wall
Oh goodness. I have never been more ready for a Friday. Never! With that said, I’ll be a busy bee this weekend, as I’m co-hosting a small baby shower for one of my dear friends. I will absolutely share pics with you on Monday of the “Sip & See” we’ve orchestrated. Fun times ahead… Today I have a nifty new product to share with you. [...]
I Have a Secret….Shhhhh!
Well, it’s not really a secret. If you were driving by our house, you’d quickly notice that…we currently are sporting a two-toned house. Yup, it’s all the rage. Looks good, right? HA! You see, we’ve been trying to finish painting the house for some time now, but Oregon’s weather has been anything but cooperative. And on top of our full-time jobs, squeezing in [...]
