This is an oldie, but a goodie. I made this piece a couple of years ago and Cali @ Home Awaits even featured it here. I thought I would share it with you anyways, because if you don’t see it the world will end. So, here are the directions on how to get from this […]
So the three day weekend is over…did anyone else find it hard to wake up and get motivated to move this morning? I know I promised to have pics to post of the diy project for the basement that I was going to work on yesterday but…the lake called my name… and I didn’t get […]
Our little lake cottage has been through a lot. It is very old. It used to be disgusting and cats would come here to die. I’m not even fibbing! You won’t be able to tell now after our amazing remodeling… otherwise I wouldn’t have lived here. (I’ll try to scavenge some gross before pictures one […]

Yawnsville ——> Awesomecity I’ve had this tray for a while and it has been very practical in the household of beer lovers and on-the-couch eaters. This whole time, however, it has been very coy in the midst of all the brown in our living room. It was time for the tray to stand out and […]
Okay, so I know that Basementspiration isn’t technically a word, but I’m making it one as of right now. Natty Nook Copyright 2011 But seriously, basementspiration is the word that encompasses the feeling that I have right now. (Basement-Inspiration if you’re in dire need of another latte) A little while ago I was walking home […]
