We Might Paint the Kitchen Floor
I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, and Brandon is on board (!), so I’m gathering some inspiration photos of painted floors. The wood in our kitchen really isn’t in the best shape, and there’s an area by the stove where the woods aren’t even the same. I figure we’d have […]
At the Back Door
Brandon setup a little area near the back door for our coats and shoes (and a leash too).
This is where the stairs are that lead down to the basement, right next to the back door in the kitchen.
The hooks and shelves only cost about $15 total (from IKEA). We should have done this a […]
Same Finishes, Different Kitchen
I just saw a kitchen on HGTV’s Spice Up My Kitchen with the same finishes as mine. I’m sure there are others out there too (I’m not claiming mine is all that unique), and of course there were differences, but it was just sort of funny to see.
Like mine, this kitchen has white cabinets, […]
This Would Have Been Helpful
I just found this handy how-to guide: Installing Ceramic Tile Backsplash. I wish I had found it back in July though. ;)
Finished Kitchen

Here’s a quick reminder of what it looked like before:
It’s just a wee bit different now.
Just about everything is new. We kept the […]
Bigger Than a Breadbox?
No, exactly the same size! Ba dum bum.
There was a breadbox in the kitchen at the family lake house, and I really liked it. When we returned home, I started searching on eBay for something similar. I lost the first one that I bid on (it ended up going for $125!), but […]
A Mustard Pot?
A few years ago, my mother-in-law (thanks, Helen!) gave me a little stainless steel set that I believe was her mother’s. It had a little tray with salt and pepper shakers, and a sugar bowl. Well, I thought it was a sugar bowl.
I was cleaning it today, and I decided to google the […]
Backsplash
I bought tile today during a rare bout of decisiveness.
They’re 3×6 white subway tiles. They weren’t my first choice – I wanted 2×6 subway tiles from Ann Sacks in a lovely green color. These came out to only $100 for 30 square feet though (from Century Tile). That’s a whopping $800 less […]
