Hi.

Welcome to my blog. Here you will find tips on how I create my pieces, what I look for in pieces and my thought process. You will go along on my journeys to antique shops, flea markets, home improvement and more. We will look at house decor trends, mood boards and there is sure to be some random stuff along the way. I hope you enjoy following along! 

Welcome, The Kitchen

Welcome, The Kitchen

Welcome!

Starting this blog was harder than I ever expected. I thought once I got the technical part down I would be set to go. However, the bigger challenge right now seems to be what my first post should be. I’ve done so many projects up until now, I wondered how do I talk about them all without seeming like I am cramming it all in. With that, I think I figured it out. Starting with this first post I will highlight a finished room and, depending on the project size, I will go into detail on some of the more intricate details in the posts to follow. Don’t worry there will be plenty of new projects and miscellaneous posts along the way too. I hope you like following along. Here we go!

The Kitchen

We bought our house in 2010 and it was, by most standards, move in ready. Stylistically though, it lacked big time. I was 25 at the time and definitely did not have the large sum of money necessary to have a full kitchen renovation done. I started thinking of all the ways I could change it so I would love it and the research began. Pinterest was my best friend (isn’t it everyone’s?), but it took years before I would actually pull the trigger and decide to paint the cabinets. I researched for months and months deciding on the best way to go about it. Check out those before and after pics.

Next time on the blog, the decision process on the great paint debate.
