Project: Kitchen Remodel – Part II
In this post we’ll share more about our kitchen remodel project, and share the end result. There were a few delays, which we should expect by now, and try to account for, but yet are always surprised by when they occur. However, we haven’t once looked back and regretted the time, investment, or hassle itContinue reading “Project: Kitchen Remodel – Part II”
Project: Kitchen Remodel – Part I
Oh happy day. I have been waiting since the day we walked through this house to start this project. We must have visited five cabinet places and four or five granite places before nailing down our product selections. Give yourself some time. The good news is I knew about what I was looking for. IContinue reading “Project: Kitchen Remodel – Part I”
Travel: Relaxation Time in Tampa, Florida and Fort Lauderdale, Florida
If we end up with time off of work we try to use it to its fullest capacity. We’d 9 times out of 10 try to go somewhere than sit at home. That doesn’t mean we aren’t relaxing once we get to where we are going, but it does mean we like to get toContinue reading “Travel: Relaxation Time in Tampa, Florida and Fort Lauderdale, Florida”

Case in point: there is an 85-foot-wide retaining wall that runs the length of the backyard. When we moved in it was railroad tie, which is essentiallyContinue reading “Project: The Backyard Project I’d Never Do Again – Part I”
Project: The Making of a Mudroom – Part II
In a recent post we shared the start of our old laundry room turned mudroom project. With the beautiful gray tile floor in, we started in on the built-in bench, shelving, and board and batten detail. Getting Started Before you go materials shopping make sure you know the width, depth, height, etc. of the componentsContinue reading “Project: The Making of a Mudroom – Part II”
Project: The Making of a Mudroom – Part I
We’ve busy around here! Can’t wait to share this next project with you. This is one that I have to say was a special project for me. With the laundry room relocated to the other side of the house (earlier posts), it left the old space next to the garage vacant. So… I get aContinue reading “Project: The Making of a Mudroom – Part I”
Project: New Pantry/Laundry Room – Part III
We are a classic case of DIY-ers who believe they provided enough time for a home project, but…didn’t. We have had this project going on for a few weeks now, working on some of it full-time using vacation days after the holidays, and then after work and on weekends. However, excited to share the finalContinue reading “Project: New Pantry/Laundry Room – Part III”
