Pins I’ve Tried: Faux Bamboo Buffet & Our Living room

Living room faux bamboo buffet

A few months ago, I found this faux bamboo buffet table at a thrift store and thought it would be perfect for the living room. I have seen this exact buffet/dresser in shops around my house for $500 in "vintage condition" - meaning nothing was done to them. Some of them were still dusty and dirty! So I was pretty happy to find this one for $29! Obviously, it needed a little love, but I had visions of glossy black paint and brass drawer pulls before I even paid for it. Since I recently … [Read more...]

Bathroom Chair Update

Zebra fabric is so much fun, isn't it?

Last week, when I posted about our new master bathroom, I had taken pictures of the bathroom with this chair in it. … [Read more...]

Master Bathroom Reveal – FINALLY!!

Don't you just want to climb in and relax in the clawfoot tub?? I do!

I have been waiting to post this for some time now, but we were waiting for the shower wall enclosure to be installed and that finally happened yesterday. So, without further ado, here is our new master bathroom!! This is the space that was formerly my husband's sink. He never used any of the cabinet space, and usually only had three things on the counter, so he really didn't need all that space. So, we removed the vanity and replaced it with this cabinet. … [Read more...]

A Beautiful Sunrise

Sunrise at my house

One of the benefits of being up so early to take my son to the school bus is that I get to see some beautiful sunrises. This morning's sunrise was one for the books... or the blog.  … [Read more...]

Bathroom Update and a New “Pin’s I’ve Tried” Pinterest Board

Navy Blue Bathroom

The demo on our master bathroom started yesterday, and I foresee many hours being dedicated to it's completion. I am hoping to be able to get a few posts written during the next few weeks, but just in case I don't, don't worry - I haven't fallen into the hole in the floor that used to be my bath tub!  I'm still busy pinning like crazy - especially bathroom pins. Oh, by the way, sorry about clogging up your pinterest feed with them all. But, I am loving how easy it has been to gather ideas for … [Read more...]

Tropical Storm Isaac

So darn adorable, I almost wanted to keep him as a pet.

I'm sure you've heard that there is a tropical storm headed through the Gulf of Mexico right now, right? We were lucky to escape the brunt of the storm since we live in eastern part of South Florida. I know, big sigh of relief! Our area was forecasted to receive  just some rain and a little wind from the outer bands of the storm. Yeah, that's not exactly what happened. For two days, we were... … [Read more...]

Kitchen Cousins – I heart them

Anthony Carrinon - HGTV's Kitchen Cousins

So, one of my obsessions with managing a blog is to see what my stats are. Where people are coming from, what search terms they use to find me, etc. Well, a few of the most popular terms are "how tall is Anthony Carrino?", "Anthony Carrino" and "Kitchen Cousins". … [Read more...]

Keeping it real…

I use the hooks for things other than just hats...

I love to see everyone's projects, freshly done and perfectly staged. But, what I love more is when I see those projects in action during "real life". You know, after the bloom is off the rose and stuff starts to pile up... A few months ago, we re-painted the laundry room and my brother helped to build a folding table/basket holding cabinet. (Ok, he did most of the building, but it was my idea! LOL!) You can see that post here. Although this is slightly straightened up... Slightly. Anyway, this … [Read more...]

Oh boy – I’ve been slacking

Still on the original owner's property - not damaged!

Okay, not really slacking completely, but nothing is getting completed around here. For example, I am laying the groundwork for a vegetable garden. So far, I've got some seeds planted in some trays and they have sprouted, but then some of them died already because the lids blew off of the trays without me realizing it, and the Florida sun is a killer even in the "winter". Oops - crud!! Have to start again. UGH! I bought some more soil and seeds and planting a new batch is on my list of things to … [Read more...]

Another Pin Success – cleaning supplies

From iHeartOrganizing

One of the things I need most in my life is better organization skills. One thing that was just driving me nuts was that I was constantly losing things because they didn't have a "spot". Cleaning supplies were the worst. Some were shoved under the bathroom sinks, some in the kitchen, and more in the garage. And I always had unnecessary multiples of many things because I didn't know if I had them at home when I was shopping. Then I found www.iHeartOrganizing.blogspot.com Her blog is every … [Read more...]
