I know I have been a bad blogger lately with such infrequent posts.
I'm real sorry. I hope to make it up to you a little.
I have been working on a bunch of lighting DIY's and tutorials and have decided to dedicate next week to "Lighting Week". Everything thing you need to know about rewiring, remaking and rehabbing lights- so that will kick off Monday. And I plan on tossing a giveaway in there too.
Around these parts things have been jam packed crazy as usual.
Here is a look at what has been going on in renovation land...
Finish Carpentry.
New doors.
Big ass baseboards.
(It will be white from the wood colored piece down)
Said "buh-bye" to the 1960's brick.
I did love it so much more after I had painted it white, but I have bigger plans.
Planking is going up over it.
Mantle design is still in the works and undecided.
Right now a simple barn beam is winning. Who knows.
Crown has begun...
Front door 1960's peek-a-boo divider is gone and walls planked...
The wall above is the entry wall that has been painted seven ways to Sunday.
Remember a year ago?
I will be working on number 8 shortly once the dust clears.
My house looks nothing like it did a week ago for the Fall House Tour.
It's sporting a very a chic carefree and cluttered style right now.
I like to refer to it as 'Eclectic Deconstructionism'.
Those cushions and lumber are perfectly placed.
As for other life fronts,
this month I turned 39 (I really can't nor want to believe that- the thirties flew).
I ran the Boston Half Marathon again with my friend Tabitha.
She kicked butt. I sucked wind-literally-having forgotten my inhaler.
But we did it!
I have been a color consulting machine these days.
And a big commercial job I have been working on for the past year is almost ready for the fun stuff...
paint and paper. Can't wait for this...
Hope you all have a fun weekend!
I think I might get lost in corn maze and drink some cider.
See you Monday!
