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…
Flipping Friday! Hit the Deck
Happy Friday! So I may not have a ton to show you guys, but it is exciting to see things progressing. Outside, the deck boards and rails were replaced, and it is feeling much nicer (and more sturdy) 🙂 Inside, we have floors! Unfortunately, we decided to not refinish the hardwood floors. There were just…
Instant Light Fixture: Update a Recessed Light with a Hanging Fixture
I had not one, but two of those “duh!” moments when refreshing my kitchen. (Check out the first one here). I’ve known about recessed light kits for years but never thought about actually using one. And then I realized how easy it would be to add a little glitz over my sink since there was…
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…
Refreshing Worn Wood with Briwax
I’ve mentioned my new little love of Briwax (check out my whole kitchen post here), but I thought it would help if I showed you some detail on how it worked. I should also mention that this is NOT a sponsored post; I’ve just loved the product and its results. The kitchen cabinets were in…
Updating a 90s kitchen – WITHOUT Painting Cabinets!
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…
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: Bath Changes
We have turned a corner and can see this house coming together! The backsplash just went up, and the flooring is mostly complete. We are getting the last of the plumbing fixtures in, and there are still some light fixtures to go up. Bathroom But in the bathroom, things have gone askew 🙁 Here was…
Flip House Friday: Skinny House Update
Happy Friday! I’m so ready for a longer weekend with some good weather so we can enjoy the outdoors! I wanted to give you a quick update on the flip house, or the skinny house as I’m calling it…. after all, it is skinny! We are at that point where we are pretty much done…
