Ok so my blogging has come to a screeching halt...but I'm trying to get back on track... there is soooo much going on ...where do I start...hmmmm chalkboards.. a very popular design item that is popping up in kitchens entries and anywhere there is wall space...
I made this here chalkboard...it hangs in the kitchen..
it can be used a a reminder board or menu or just a daily saying...
and this here chalkboard my husband made out of scraps of molding that we had left after we replaced our windows...we use it as part of the decor and change what it says periodically...
like here...
here are a few more from lovelies...via country living and house beautiful
ok..and currently on the home front we have begun the long...long..long and extra time consuming task of refacing and painting our kitchen cabinets..
the cabinets are flat..so we are adding trim in a shaker style...
As DIY-ers we are doing pretty much everything ourselves to cut costs...we have been asked why we just didnt buy all new doors...well...it is only costing us about 6 bucks a door to do it this way and also what fun would that be if we didnt do everything ourselves ; ) Hopefully the finished product will be worth the pound of dust in my lungs from sanding!!!
thank you...nicolle
