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: 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,…
Easy Modern Address Plaque
Who’s up for an easy project today?! At the skinny house, we had this blank wall on the porch that needed a little something… perhaps a welcome sign or an address plaque. I had already picked up the address numbers, but honestly, with only 2 numbers in the address, I just felt like it wouldn’t…
Flip House Update: The Home Stretch
I’m sorry this is a little late! I’ve been MIA lately while pushing to get this house on the market. We aren’t there yet, but soooo close! The little loose ends right before market time are always tough to tie up. For example, the doorbell in the first pic 🙂 But we are almost there. Almost. Here’s…
Flip House Friday – Let There be Light – and Gas!
I’ve described myself as scatterbrained, forgetful… whatever you want to call it. My hubby helps keep me straight, but there’s only so much he can do. So I want to share with my readers who don’t know me (if there are any out there?!) an example so maybe you can see where I’m coming from….
Flip House Friday: Bathroom Plans
Well, things are coming along at the Skinny House. Slowly but surely! We have a certain neighbor who keeps complaining to the town about our permit, and an inspector who seems to drop by at least every half hour. I was actually mentioning him to my GC when, lo and behold, he drives by. Speak…
Flip House Friday: Kitchen Plans & Paint!
So this was my office yesterday along with one of my more lazy co-workers… no complaints here! I’m working on the kitchen cabinet doors for the skinny house – more on that below! But we have paint! Paint is really the first thing that goes in where you start to see that shift from demolition…
