Happy Friday folks. How can it be Friday already? I don’t know where this week has gone. But being busy sure does make time fly! I’m in my first month of all my children being in school, and time has only sped up more. How can that be? I promised you last week I would…

September 29, 2017 · 161 Comments

Flip House Tour Before & After | inbetweenchaos.com

I think the first thing many homeowners think needs to happen with a dated kitchen remodel is a change of cabinets. First, let’s start with a bit of a perspective adjustment… oak or wood cabinets need not be removed or painted.  They are trending back in, and that makes it so much easier to update…

Galvanized Top Grill Cart | inbetweenchaos.com

Since moving into our new house, our little grill has been relegated to a tiny concrete pad outside our laundry room door… it was so inconvenient.  And so we hardly ever grilled.  We long planned to put in a patio off our screened porch, and we’ve finally gotten it done!  Now, I’m not a crazy…
