Happy Day's

Two of my four Lilacs......Guess that is better than none!!!

Finally!!

I know you have all been waiting!!

Just need to hang a couple things on the wall, but still deciding what they are going to be.

Does anybody know???

Are these Lilacs in the making???????

House Project #3 "The Spare Room"

I would never show what the room REALLY looked like before I started my project. But anyone who has a spare room can probably just imagine.

I started by sanding down all the woodwork and then scrubbing the entire room from top to bottom with Mr. Clean.


It is now day three of my project and I have everything primed from top to bottom. Next I will be painting all the woodwork and then the ceiling and walls. My next post will be the finished room!!! So far Butch thinks I am doing very good for my first "Room Makeover" but I am a very slow painter. He also wished he would have taken a picture of me with the power tools in my hands and the dust mask on my face, but he just was not thinking fast enough.
Oh well, maybe next time.....

House Project #2 "The Finishing Touch"

We did a bathroom remodel but never finished the floor.

Here are the kick plates that were never put down. They require cutting, priming and painting.....

And here is the finished project after two years!!!

We will be, or should I say Butch will be, putting kick plates on the floors in the rest of the house as time goes by. I keep telling him one project at a time and since the doors are not done yet the kick plates are going to have to wait a short while.

House Project #1 Out with the OLD in with the NEW!

Here are the OLD!!

Here are the NEW!!

We are (well Butch is) replacing all the doors in our house, it is quite the project. Cut holes for the new door knobs, router out for the new hinges, prime, paint and hang, of course don't forget all the lovely words in between all of this. But the good news is we (Butch) have five down and only five to go!! We do have other projects in the works so stay tuned!!! And one them I am doing on my own. YES ALL BY MYSELF!! BEWARE OF THE OUTCOME OF THAT ONE!! Just a hint it is going to be project number three......
