September Favorites
I started doing “favorites” posts each month at the beginning of this year and that lasted for…oh, about two months! Life just happened and I didn’t come back to it, but I decided to pick it up again. Here are a smattering of things I enjoyed in September… Hamilton : An American Musical As a […]
counter & tile options & $30 shelves
Yesterday, I needed to run some errands and play some catch up, so I didn’t have a chance to start painting the kitchen island. I must admit that it’s nice to have a break from cabinet painting, although I’m looking forward to having it done! While I was out, though, I picked up samples from […]

trim for days, grays doors & glass knobs
