Upstairs Master Room Makeover

January 18, 2017January 18, 20176 Comments

We have this little upstairs attic space.  Pre-kids, which would be about 5 years ago, it was a great little tv spot.  The Lucy came along.  It was still a great tv spot, but in addition it became a drop zone.  Everything that needed to be cleared out from downstairs made it's way upstairs...to sit...and … Continue reading Upstairs Master Room Makeover

Need a little more than just a sketch…

May 16, 2011June 28, 2011Leave a comment

In my mind when I drew the little sketch thumbnails of what I wanted to do with the upstairs and our bedroom, I thought they looked really cute!  Turns out they look like a kindergartener drew them...so I decided I needed to try my hand at creating a mood board! This is my basic concept … Continue reading Need a little more than just a sketch…

Stating my Intentions

May 14, 2011Leave a comment

I get distracted easily, so I think that I must state my intentions.  I figure that if I develop a plan and write it down, it will be more likely to get done! Let's start with the upstairs! {Our little office nook} This is what I'd like to do! {just think of it as a … Continue reading Stating my Intentions

Did anyone else see @em_henderson post about counter stools last week? I had about 3 or 4 friends text me. You know that’s when you’ve found friends that truly get you. I absolutely loved it, and could have written something very similar, debating heights, backs, material, etc. I got so exhausted by my search for the perfect stool, and then these IKEA stools were passed on to us. They aren’t the show stoppers that I was looking at, but man are they comfortable, the kids love sitting on them (and don’t fall out of them like the last ones) and they clean up like a dream! For now, they are so perfect! #92Mreno #M92kitchen
There you have it! A full functional bathroom. I can’t say complete, because I have some millwork and trim to complete. But I feel like my priority should be making all the bathrooms functional, then I can circle back around. #92Mreno #92mbathroom
Well there goes my grout day. I can’t be too mad about it though. For this tiny sliver of time the kids are playing “camping” together very nicely in their bedroom, while I’m enjoying a quiet coffee. I’m sure the madness will begin soon 😊 Happy snow day!
Well, my stools are gone. They made me happy, even when peeking out this much. Side note, I’m so bad at craigslist. I listed for $75. A woman said she’d do $50. I told her I’d give it a few days. Then after a few days, I agreed. And then right before she came by a guy emailed and said he’d give me $90! It was too late, and selling to the woman for $50 was the right thing to do, but man! $90 would have been better 🤣
