Attacking the List

T and I left the house twice this weekend. I went to yoga yesterday and then we went to the grocery store. The rest of the weekend was spent attacking our To-Do List. Several of the items had been languishing on the list for too long so we did those first.

Our master bedroom has been suffering from bare walls and no personality since the day we moved in. So we finally hung these. We've done almost a full bedroom makeover and I'll share that in the next few days.

The rug that used to be in the dining room was the same color as the floors so I'd been on the lookout for something darker and I was thrilled to find this one online a few weeks ago from Cost Plus. And on sale. Bonus!



This is the biggie: remember this photo from last fall?



Ta Da! It's finally done! We trimmed, spackled, taped, nailed, and painted. And we're in love. Pay no attention to the still unhung cabinet doors. We realize that it's been close to a year since we started that %&%*^ project and we're still trying to find hinges that will fit. Lesson for the day: Don't throw anything away until you're completely finished with the project. You never know what you may need.
