Winter review

Thank goodness, today actually felt like spring!

No snow or rain or wind, it was perfect.

Since I am finally able to say goodbye to the cold I thought I would do a quick walk down memory lane and revisit some of my favorite projects from this past winter.

We decided to change our formal living room into a craft space for the family {well mostly for me}!

We added on a much needed mudroom to our home.




I jazzed up a couple of craigslist tables with paint.

We also began the renovation on our kitchen.

We sure did stay busy this past winter. We were constantly working on something with little break time in between!

Luckily our counter tops arrived this week and we were able to get them installed in one afternoon. I'm happy to report that our kitchen makeover is {mostly} complete and I will be sharing it with you early next week.

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday!

Fabric covered memo board

I'm feeling much better now and looking forward to putting some finishing touches on our kitchen this week. I'm still waiting for that all important phone call letting us know our counter tops are ready! It should be sometime this week {so they say}!

Last week I was able to whip up a little memo board for the back of our pantry door. It's a great place to keep lists, menu's etc.

I started off with this bulletin board I picked up at a thrift shop for a couple bucks. I found the yellow chevron fabric {that I LOVE} at Hobby Lobby and used my 40% off coupon. I bought a yard of fabric for under $6.00 and only used half the fabric! 

I used my hot glue gun to attach the fabric and then used command strips to attach the board to the pantry door.

I love the pop of yellow on the black door! Plus it was super quick and easy to make!

Have a great day!
