It’s January 3rd already. Isn’t it funny how we work ourselves over in our minds about “starts”, or at least I do. If I don’t start on the first, I will have to wait a whole month. Somehow we lie to ourselves and say that starting has to happen at the “beginning”. Really it’s the… Continue reading New Year

I know not everyone has a good relationship with their Dad, or they have gone to be with Jesus, or some have never met.

When we remodeled The Hall Bath I knew I wanted shiplap walls. I however had no hope of tearing off my drywall to find ‘real’ shiplap underneath. So I opted for a DIY version that was easy, sturdy and budget friendly. We are adding more shiplap in the house to bring that same farmhouse feel to… Continue reading DIY Shiplap Walls
Part of the fun of doing a home renovation all on your own is the ability to control your environment, and your budget in your makeover. The downfall is that this usually is a ‘side job’ to all the other things life has going on. It’s too easy to keep your nose down and working… Continue reading Life Happens
