Welcome to my blog. This is a blog for me to express my ideas and thoughts. I love to craft and "repurpose" things. I am just starting on this blog adventure, so bear with my while I get steady and rolling.

Long time coming.

I thought I had better at least post something!  I know that it's been way too long, but I just needed a rest.  Now that the weather here in the Maritimes has finally started to warm up and be spring like for the past couple of weeks, I have thrown myself into a long list of projects.

I have some outside spray painting I want to do, but of course the wind always decides to pick up when I decide to do it.  This weekend I'll have to put together a make shift paint booth if the wind doesn't bugger off!

I finally did some painting inside.  Yay!  After a couple of years of putting it off (I really do not like to paint!) I started with my kitchen.  It has been the same color for about 13 years now.  Now the color was actually fine, but it was time for a change.    The old kitchen:



My little helper getting ready to paint---Smooth Like Butta---just as the shirt says. 



Psych!   Pictures of the completed room to come.  I still have some finishing touches to make.  But at least you know I'm doing something!

So many projects, so little time.  Chairs to redo, slipcovers to make, sooo much more painting to do.  

For my home I want fresh, I want clean, I want simple.   

I love looking at all the blogs I have listed on here and get inspired by many of their ideas.  That is one thing I did do.   I continued to follow all the blogs and gather inspiration to make my home a place I love to be.
