The Cliffhanger Sources
If you haven’t seen the completed pics of the Cliffhanger, you’ll want to check it out here first! Sourcing for a flip house is always a challenge, but a fun one for me! I want quality selections that look nice and work well but at a good price. I mean yes, we are flipping a…
Exciting News!
I finally did it. I’ve finally made it to the 2010s. I have a YouTube Channel! I never thought I’d say that as I’m not fond of being in front of a camera. BUT, I also know that words and pictures can show only so much of a process. I’ve learned a lot from other…
New Bed with a Natural Finish
At New Year’s, our bedroom felt like that of a poor college student. Our mattress was sitting on the floor. I’ve had a frustration with bedframes, and ill-fitting comforters, and footboards, and headboards that worked loose. I’ve tried a few things, including a new very minimalist bedframe in place of our boxspring (which I threw…
Garage Update: Moving In
I would love to be able to make this a “reveal” post, but it’s just not in the cards. There is still painting to be done along with landscaping. And then there is a little never ending issue with the Bermuda shutters (more on that later). So its going to be an ongoing project, and…
It keeps going… and going…
Yeah, the garage is still a work in progress. And progress has a whole new meaning to me!! I remember when the siding started, I thought it would take a few days, maybe a week. Boy was I clueless. My contractor (Johnny) takes his time but tries to do it right, so I really can’t…

Flippin’ Friday: Split Update
Well, somehow it’s Friday again! We’ve had a blast here this week as my son has been in bed with the flu and I have logged 9, 456 trips up and down the steps to meet his requests. But in all seriousness, I’m grateful he is doing well as I realize how hard of a…
Garage Storage and Organization: Projects and Solutions
I’m always inspired by organization this time of year, especially for one of the hardest working spaces in our house… the garage. I’m sure anyone who has stepped foot in my garage is wondering why in the heck I would write a post on garage organization. It is no doubt a place where I have…
Easy Seasonal Plate Decor
I always love finishing up a project that’s been hanging around for a while. And I just finished not one, but two of those puppies! It’s been well more than a year since I bought these pretty scalloped plates to hang in my kitchen, and I just got them up. The sad thing is, it…
