Oh hey guys, remember me? I promise I did not forget you, I just took a bit of an unplanned hiatus 🙂 After getting the Split on the market, I switched into focusing on my own house and had lots of gardening plans… and now suddenly it is summer break! Yikes! The great news is,…
Fireplace Refresh (on the cheap!)
If you haven’t noticed, I’ve been on a bit of a Cricut kick! After wanting one for so long, I’m finally putting my Cricut Maker to some good, vinyl-cutting use! In the Split Decision, the fireplace was in good condition, including the legs and header and the built-ins flanking the sides. But I wasn’t a…
The Split Decision: Market Time
The Split Decision is on the market! This house just really needed some love! When we walked in the first time, it was dark, with drab colors. And now it is streaming with natural light. The thing is, from a cosmetic point of view, nothing crazy was done. The entire kitchen and the two main…
Flippin’ Friday: Stop! Stagin’ time!
We’re moving in! I’m dropping off staging materials on each trip, and I think most of it is there! Right now, we are finishing up on all of those little things and have started cleaning. Our biggest obstacle is the exterior, as the weather here has been windy, wet and cold. In short, not fun….
Flippin’ Friday: A Little Pile of Projects
Happy Friday! We’ve had some exciting little changes since my last update. I’ll give you a hint… bath tile! But first, I have a pile of little projects I’m working on at home. Aside from waxing the kitchen cabinets, I also have a few other things here at my house, not the least of which…
Flippin’ Friday: Floors!
Happy Friday guys! When I visited the flip house this week, I couldn’t help but “ooh” and “ahhh” over the floors. I had to be patient while they were being refinished, but it was worth the wait! It’s kind of shocking to me that these beautiful floors were underneath carpet. But they are free to…
Flippin’ Friday: Split Decision Update
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. Ours was great, minus some minor sickness. I know I’m ready to get things put back in order and to purge, purge, purge! Who’s with me? The kiddos are doing surprisingly well at letting go of some things. But we also really need…
Flippin’ Friday: Split Decision Update
Happy Friday! Things are in motion at the Split Decision, and here’s a peek into what’s going on. Floors! Beautiful hardwood floors… The carpet upstairs is gone and, as suspected, there were beautiful hardwood floors just waiting to come out. Granted, there are also a ton of staples waiting to come out, but they will…
Flippin’ Friday: The Split Decision
Black Friday is one of my favorite days of the year! Not because of deals to be had, but because it’s a day my sisters, my mom, and I set aside each year to go shopping, get in the Christmas spirit, and just hang out. We don’t make many purchases, we don’t head out early,…
