Weekend House Progress

a BIG thank you is in order for my Amazing Hand Washing Husband.

When we moved I packed/wrapped everything in newspaper and since we don't have a dishwasher, we had to hand wash all our cups, dishes, glasses, bowls, silverware, pots and pans, etc, etc, etc... And he did! I helped dry, but he stood there for hours and washed away! LOVE HIM!

here is a shot of our ever so glamorous retro kitchen.
wish i had before and afters, sorry.
i promise to get better at that during our house renovations.

but Derek took the doors off the cabinets and I repainted.
I still have the bottom ones to repaint.

how bout that stove & look at those floors! :O)

and here are

a couple views of our dining room.

we're still not sure we will keep the shelving as is...

in the process of finding a new table.

another view of dining room, plus the wall color i love (benjamin moore: sea haze)

for the dining room we are looking into hanging lanterns from an
old wooden ladder as our light.
and getting a long table with chairs and a bench.
(idea stolen from current PB Catalog)

another PB Steal.
Our idea for our shelving and displays.


we have three, but our currently using two.


but then there is always the option of adding one to the kitchen.
using just one for display and the other two as bookshelves...
in an office, living room, or a bedroom.



oh the possibilities!
