This week I am digging the changes we are making in our master bathroom. Back over the holidays, I’d posted a glimpse into the changes we are making to this space. And as projects sometimes do, this one grew! We were just going to replace the fixtures. Then I decided to paint, which required a new shower curtain, floating shelf, and wall clock, etc, etc. The fixtures have all been replaced and here is a very in-the-rough picture of the…
our laundry room has a new look

shiny new mailbox
April 8, 2016We are doing some home improvements this week, one of which is installing a new mailbox. The previous one had been here since long before we moved in and was a sorry sight. It was taped together and had seen better days. So, ta da! A shiny new one. The daily trek to retrieve the mail is ‘an event’ in our household.
