Projects, Projects and...

MORE PROJECTS!


Sometimes our projects are for fun and other times...NO!

What we've been up to lately.


THE KITCHEN:


Let me just say...I hate wallpaper!

Scott removed the wallpaper from the kitchen, and took up the awful white laminate floor with green dots - YAY - it looked so much better after that!

Next I painted the kitchen (not a fun project), it took me 2 evenings but it got done and I love the color. Next, new floors, doesn't it look great!

What's left in the kitchen:

I would love a new glass/stone backsplash, and maybe a couple rugs.

(we kept the counter-top which i don't mind as much now)



THE MUDROOM:


2 Christmas' ago Scott put up beadboard in the mudroom and in March I went to IKEA to buy some accessories, and of course my lovely 31 storage bag too (i love 31). I re-painted the mudroom, and also painted and took off the doors to a cabinets and added baskets to it, which turned out great!

Now i need a couple more accessories and I need to take pictures to post!

(Scott had already put down new floors a couple years ago)


THE UPSTAIRS BATH:


This project I would consider the one thing I wanted to do eventually and now it's a must!

I am going to paint the vanity and toilet topper cabinet white and I am thinking of a gray color for the walls and of course, a new shower curtain, etc!

Unfortunately, the floors and tile wall in the shower stay:(


Don't forget that I said I "hated" wallpaper, and sometimes you have to compromise with your spouse, so you may be surprised later!
