house progress...

we're making progress on the house, 2 weeks until move in. you should see my 'to do wish list', it keeps growing like a week. i think i need a second job to support my house remodel habit.

the kitchen backsplash was completed over the weekend. the cabinets & walls still need to be painted white, but that's going to happen towards the end of this week. here are the before & afters of the backsplash goodness...

before...

after...


my awesome boss helped me build & install the bookshelves for the rear bedroom. this week they'll be completed, painted & the room will be painted too... goodbye mint-chocolate-chip & poop colors...


the other rooms in the house are all primed and ready to be painted...


huge shout out to my co-workers, demo guy, electricians, tile installer and painters...and my friends & family for their input. the house updates are moving along at lightening speed, i couldn't be happier or more thankful for everyone's help!

  1. HOLY MOLY AMAZINGNESS!!!

    you put me to SHAME. our plum purple bedroom that was on the top of my to-do list when we moved in still sits- TWO years later. EEEKS!

    CANNOT wait to see more of what you do. SO jealous of your butcher block countertops!!
    We'll miss you for sure at crafting weekend, but TOTALLY understand. Maybe an early spring date is in order- you're gonna need some pillows and curtains.

    Hope to get together for a lunch/shopping/dinner/house tour date soon!
