The time has come to update you on our girls, Blanche and Lucile. In recent months, they've both been excommunicated from our loving home, out into cold dark unknown. They didn't take it very well at first.But slowly they've gotten used to their new humble life, and the meager-sparse-miserable-and-lonely-dwelling-that-is-the-garage. We're so abusive, I know. Wait till it gets cold, ... [ Read More ]

Recycling Station

by

The man-boy and I are always looking for little ways to make our home more functional and pleasing to the eye... on a budget of course! And this little corner in our kitchen is less than pleasant.Living in the country, recycling and being green isn't entirely convenient.

So why spend $14 on a pregnancy test, when you can spend $1?Well, here's why:I have a tendancy to see little pink lines that aren't there. I convince myself that I can see a faint second pink line, and that leads to nowhere good. So this time around, I decided to splurge ... [ Read More ]

Like a Cloudy Day

Our new friend, Michelle just moved in to an awesome old house with TONS of space an character. She had fallen in love with the green coffee table and end table we made-over and sold awhile back.

Jamie’s Backsplash

Jamie and her hubs have revamped just about every other room in their house EXCEPT the kitchen. It's an understandably intimidating room to tackle, and can be very expensive. But it doesn't have to be. We slapped some paint on the backsplash... and next weekend, Jamie and her husband are gonna slap some paint on their cabinets (hence the lack of hardware and wood putty all over the cabinet ...
