The Historic District

I am working on preparing the babies room now. I repainted the trim, walls and THREE doors (stinking paneled doors... took 3 coats each). Since I had the hardware all removed, I took the opportunity to stick everything in a boiling pot of water to remove all of the paint. WHY do people paint solid b...

Man, oh man. I really can't believe the way the bad news is piling on. Hang in there. I'm really hoping to see your luck take a big swing the other direction.

Holy moly! I can't believe that it's the same house. It looks so, so amazing. You two should really be patting yourselves on the back!

That mantle looks really great! Nice work

When we moved in, we stripped a lot of old wallpaper and found a LOT of pink walls. We got as close of a match to the pink as we could...
