Last week, on my lunch break, I went thrifting. It was... well let's just say it was super fun. Finding awesome stuff and ridiculously low prices is gratifying to me in a way that I can't explain. And so I shant. I bought this weird floral wall-hanging thing. I almost didn't buy it, because $4.99 seemed a little pricy to me. But I just couldn't help but see the good in her, and all the things I ... [ Read More ]
Milk
Some of you may remember my cry for help with regards to my milk dilemma. Living in the country, I've learned to freeze tons of stuff in order to limit the number of trips into town. But I just wasn't sure if you could freeze milk, and/or if there was a right or wrong way to go about it. After posing this question, I got a flood of emails with advice.So I took the plunge. I just used a little ... [ Read More ]
Robyn’s Backplash
With two backsplashes to paint in the same neighborhood, we decided to make a weekend of it and had a total blast painting next-door-neighbors, Robyn's and Ann's backplashes!

Nick has his measuring down to an art... and we've got a system down that allows us to punch these babies out in 2 1/2 - 3 hours!Robyn's kitchen ... [ Read More ]
Ann’s Backsplash
Ann is the daughter of Stan and Sue, and also has an amazing house... with a very creative and funky vibe. We loved her design style and the fact that she wanted to be wild with the painting of her backplash! She has a green/blue thing going on in her kitchen and dining room, and wanted us to use these pieces as inspiration. And she, literally, wanted a green and blue backsplash. FUN! So the ...

Produce
Well we finally weeded the tomatoes. A little clear polish and I could have a pretty sweet gothic french mani! Classy, I know.Our little garden is starting to show the fruits of our labor... or vegetables I guess. Nick got a wild hair up his pajama-clad butt and decided he was going to go pull some veggies. He just had to know how they've progressed, even if it meant sacrificing the little ... [ Read More ]
Mirror Makeover
Our downstairs bathroom was one of the first things we tackled after moving to the homestead, understandably so. We're stoked about the results, and it's turned out to be one of our favorite redo's so far.Subconsciously though, I've been keeping my eye out for a new bathroom mirror, because ours is super... bland. It's just a square beveled mirror with these tacky ghetto plastic things holding it ... [ Read More ]
