Christmas Lights

We're ready for Christmas!

I think I might've been the only one looking for the old-fashioned ceramic lights at the store because they were pretty hard to find amongst the rows of LEDs.  I like the light they give off so much better though.

Powder Room

This is how the powder room looked when we first  bought the house - green tile and carpet that smelled like pee,

It looks and smells much better now with hardwood floors, paint and a new vanity.

Fall and Almost Winter

Winter Projects

We just replaced the old microwave above the oven with a pretty new hood vent.

I think it will look even prettier once we get a backsplash in.  Now the only appliance we have left to replace is the oven, which actually isn't that bad except that I scrubbed it with Easy-Off when we first moved in and it took off a lot of the white finish (see behind the knobs).  I guess it takes EVERYTHING off easily.

 

 

Fall Projects

This was our mantel in the fall.  The pumpkins didn't last too long - probably because our fireplace is always on.

 

In case you forgot what it used to look like...
