Project #3 pt. 2 Laundry Room Makeover

Staging our old house to sell, and keeping it show ready taught me two very important things. 

1. Living in a pretty, clean, well organized and functional space feels so much better than living in a cluttered chaos.  


2.  I don't want to wait until it's time to sell this house to make it pretty, clean, organized and functional.  I want to enjoy it now.



The laundry room in our new house  is neither pretty, clean, organised, nor functional.  So, it is the perfect candidate for a makeover.  To begin I started with a "laundry list" of needs and wants for the new space.

Project # 3 - pt. 1: THE TROUBLE WITH LAUNDRY a.k.a. Why We Must Redo the Laundry Room

I hate laundry more than any other household chore, and it's even worse when you don't have a proper place to do it.

Project # 2 Paint the Dining Room

One Saturday morning not that long ago I woke up, walked down stairs and said to my husband "I know this is nuts, but I'd really like to paint the dining room today."

Project #1 Mom Board




I "cut my building teeth" making a "mom board" for our old house.  Inspired by Ann White's  Chalkboard Cubby Shelf, the old mom board was very simple, just a chalkboard with a shelf and some hooks.  I loved it, but had to leave it behind when we moved.
