Zach and I are on spring break this week. In case you ever wondered as a child, your teachers were not as excited as you were about days off. They were more excited. We don’t have any major plans quite yet, but for now we’re enjoying getting a few things crossed off of our to-do [...]

Call us losers, but Zach and I love the Home Depot commercials. The music is fun, and they just make us want to plant something, paint something, or just generally tackle the project list. Here’s to a productive weekend!

Fun-due

Last weekend I had the privilege of hosting a fondue night for the girls in our Sunday school class. We enjoyed great food, wonderful conversation, and a chick flick (Lucky Seven- have you seen it? Very cute.) One of the great things about the night was that we divided responsibilities so, while the event was [...]
Workday

On Friday I had a teacher workday but, since it was SO beautiful outside, and since Zach had a boys’ night that night (we are in the midst of March Madness, after all), I decided to work around the house during the day and save report cards for that night. I got to do a [...]
The Latest Addition to the Project List

When we bought our bedroom set, we had the option to get a second dresser or a second nightstand. Since a) we had minimal closet space and b) dressers are normally more expensive, we went for the dresser, thinking we might buy the nightstand later. I decided it would be better to have the nightstand [...]
The Hoosier Cabinet and a Lesson in Flea Market Ettiquette

I contemplated selling this hossier cabinet several times this summer. Not because I didn’t like it, but because it sat smack-dab in the center of my dad’s living room while we waited to close on our house. In the end, I’m so thankful that I didn’t! I love that the color scheme fits in [...]
Welcome!

I thought I’d share a few pictures of our entrance area. To start things off, here is a before shot (not the best angle, but this is all I have): We really didn’t mind the wood trim, but we have several big trees around the house that limit the natural light and, as a result, we [...]
To Grandmother’s House We Go
Posted in Uncategorized on March 10, 2010 | 2 Comments »
There are several things that have impacted my design style over the years, one of which is my grandma’s house. Not because it was so impeccably decorated (think carpeting in rust orange, avocado green, and every other color that was remotely popular in the 60s), but because it was charming, cozy, and a place where [...]
Spring is in the Air!

I’ve been loving every second of this gorgeous weather we’ve been blessed with the past few days! We’ve spent time outside, my extremities are thawing out, and we’re beginning to make plans for fun things to plant- like flowers! I’ve always been pretty enamored with flowers, particularly the ones that my dad gets from a [...]
