Hey guys, this is a super quick post but I thought I would share! I was cleaning out the garden in preparation for winter and cut some of the last flowers to have in the house. I don’t have very … Continue reading Candle holder turned vase..
My childhood home only had a crawl space, so my experience with basements was limited and I was excited to see the space potential that our new house had with its unfinished basement. Well we have had many mishaps with all things underground in our house and over the last two years we have mainly made sure that it was water tight.

Well thankfully the man I married has that handy man instinct. He loves to be able to do everything himself, and when we bought our first home in January 2014, we realized that we both really enjoyed taking on different projects and renovations together. … Continue reading New House, New Projects!
