Fortunately, I scored myself a chandelier with all three of these qualities. 🙂 What I used for this project: Chandelier Rust-oleum…

I can’t believe I’m actually saying these words, but our bathroom is FINISHED! If you have been following our bathroom re-do you know a lot of love, time and TLC has gone into this project.

“Communicator by day. Upcycler by night.” The phrase I use in my bio couldn’t be any more true, that’s my life in a nut-shell (minus my awesome husband, family, friends, and of course dog) for the year of 2013.

While doing our basement renovation, we realized we wanted to make the best use out of the entire space. Our basement is going to be used in many different ways in the years to come; a laundry room, a gym, a craft room, a stockpile, an entertainment space, a playroom (someday), oh and a 3-piece…

Sorry Andy Williams, you are mistaken. Fall is seriously the “most wonderful time of the year!” Lets break it down. The weather is beautiful, the landscape looks more and more georgeous each day and the food is to die for. Pumpkin and apple flavored everything…it is heaven! We did a little decorating for the season…

If you read our landscaping post, you know that we’re all about finishing the outside of our home right now. Now the landscaping is complete, we have shimmied over a couple of feet to the front door area. The house number and mailbox we currently have are probably original to the house. Considering the house…

We bought our first home in July of 2011 and as much as we absolutely LOVED the inside of the house, we knew the landscaping had to go. I mean, just look at it! The bushes were practically swallowing the house. (Spring and winter photos for your viewing pleasure.) Landscaping isn’t the easiest thing in…

Read MoreIf you live near Buffalo, NY you know that the 2006 “October Storm” hit the area fast and hard with heaps of snow. No one was ready for all the snow or the lasting impact it would have on the area. After the snow melted and the community was able to go outside to see…
