After over a YEAR of procrastinating working on this house, I am happy to announce that it is finally FINISHED!!!!!!! Between getting married and having a baby, this home rehab was really put on the back burner, but I’m so glad that it’s complete and ready to be put on the market! It was quiteContinue reading “Smokey House Rehab: The Finished Product!!!!!”

Smokey House Rehab (Part 5)
I know it’s been a couple months since I posted an update on the Smokey House Rehab, but that’s mainly because there’s been nothing to update you about. The rehab has been on the back burner because of all the wedding madness, and we’ve finally gotten back into it. The last time we attempted toContinue reading “Smokey House Rehab (Part 5)”
The Smokey House Rehab (Part 3)
This past weekend after all the bridal shower festivities Steve and I got back to work on the Smokey House rehab. Luckily it’s starting to smell a lot better in there after we ripped out the carpet. We’re enjoying doing the work ourselves, even though it can get really tiring. This lovely lady gave usContinue reading “The Smokey House Rehab (Part 3)”
The Smoke House Rehab (Part 2)
It’s been a LONG weekend of rehabbing the Smoke House, but we are finally making some great progress! Rustin & Elizabeth helped us ALOT on Friday and Saturday, and then Steve and I worked by ourselves on Sunday. We were able to clean most of the kitchen, rip out all the carpets, and clean allContinue reading “The Smoke House Rehab (Part 2)”
Sneak Peek of Tomorrow’s Post
I’m very tired from today’s cleaning adventures, so I’m going to postpone today’s post of our rehabbing the Smoke House until tomorrow. But here’s a sneak peak of just how dirty it was, and how clean we were able to get it. I still cant believe: (1) that someone could live like this, and (2)Continue reading “Sneak Peek of Tomorrow’s Post”
The Patio is Finished!
I’m sorry for not writing for the past couple days. This weekend has been a little busy. Yesterday, I spent the whole day cleaning and hanging up new pictures…. ….such as this one of Fancy…. …and this one of our sweet Kaylee… …and this ridiculous one of Lazarus. ButContinue reading “The Patio is Finished!”
I Turned 25 Today
Today was my birthday! I’m now a quarter of a century old. Isn’t it amazing how fast the time goes by? Sometimes I feel like I’m still in high school, although, there seems to be a lot less drama now. Also, I have a lot more responsibilities now than I did then. I’ve got aContinue reading “I Turned 25 Today”
Patio Curtains
For my 2nd sewing machine project, I decided to make curtains to match the pillows I made a few days ago. Don’t worry, I didn’t use the same patterned fabric. That would have been WAY to much pattern. Instead, I used white linen fabric for the curtains and the double roller blinds, and then toContinue reading “Patio Curtains”
My First Sewing Machine Experience
Well, I figured since Steve so thoughtfully gave me a sewing/embroidery machine for Christmas this past year I might as well put it to some use. So last night I taught myself how to use it. I had never used a sewing machine before, and the only time I had ever seen one used wasContinue reading “My First Sewing Machine Experience”
From Nursery to Sewing Room (Part 1)
When we bought our house in June 2010, we had so many ideas of what we wanted to do with it. But time went on, and we went to work, hung out with friends, and watched movies, but somehow we never really changed anything in the house. Granted, there was the painting failure in theContinue reading “From Nursery to Sewing Room (Part 1)”
