We’re wrapping up the school year around here, and I can’t believe that the kids are going to be kicking off the summer by the end of next week. The transition will take a couple of weeks, so cross your fingers that we all come through it in one piece. Transitions are always tricky, aren’t…

Spring 2018 One Room Challenge Week Five: When Things Don’t Go as Planned
I mentioned in last week’s update, that I was crossing my fingers that the bedding I ordered online worked out, because I didn’t have a Plan B.

Here we are already, week four of the Spring 2018 One Room Challenge, and while I feel like I’m pretty on top of things, those niggling details have a tendency to culminate and sneak up on you. I feel like I’m closer to being able to pull those niggling details together now that I have…

After my not-so-big progress update last week due to the big scary kitchen makeover, I’m excited to share some serious progress with you this week! First things first.

The Biggest, Scariest Kitchen Makeover I’ve Ever Done
I’m so excited to finally share this big, scary kitchen makeover. It’s been in the works for awhile, since there was so much construction going on in this house, but I finally got in and did my part and I’m done! You can see by looking at the before photos, why this was the biggest,…

Spring 2018 One Room Challenge Week #2 – Furniture Shopping
First off, I did NOT forget that our weekly updates are due on Thursday. My computer needed a minor exorcism, which is why I’m posting on Friday. My apologies. That said, I don’t have any exciting room clean out photos to share yet, and it still looks like it did last week, a Hoarder’s Paradise….
