2019 Project List

There's been so many projects on my mind for so long. We are coming up on our two year anniversary of owning this home and I think its high time we get some of these things checked off. So, for 2019 my plan is this:

Paint the kitchen cabinets
If you've followed me for any amount of time you know that I've been wanting to repaint these cabinets since day one. Every time I think I'm getting ready to do it something holds me back, right now, its the weather. We plan to use a paint sprayer to speed up the process and right now its too cold to do that so come spring I'm gonna be checking this one off.



Replace the blinds with bamboo shades
I am one of those people that makes decisions quickly. Sometimes thats a good thing, other times it bites me in the butt. Before we moved in I thought I wanted bamboo shades, I even sent away for several samples but non matched the hardwoods well so I gave up and went with white and I have regret it every day since. This year though, the blinds are coming down and the woven shades are going up!

Replace the rest of the counter tops.
If you remember, back in September we replaced the kitchen counters with a gorgeous calacatta formica and I want to replace the bathrooms (2 full 1 half) and the laundry room with the same kind.



New flooring in the guest bathroom
I'm hoping to try my hand at some peel and stick tiles in here!


Re-organized the garage and add more storage
When we first moved in we coated the floors, built a work bench and peg board and shelving and it looked ok. Since then, however, we removed the peg board because it wasn't functional for us, bought a huge tool box and started storing way too much junk in here. We're getting it cleaned out though, and we're coming up with better storage solutions in the process


Decorate the front porch
I love my rocking chairs out front but basically that's it. I want to spruce up the landscaping with some pretty lavender bushes, add a new table, some seat cushions maybe, I'm not quite sure what I want yet but I'm working on it!


Of course there's going to be lots of little projects in the meantime so check back soon!
