They Are Finally Up

 Good Morning!

It's been awhile and I have missed the blog and all of you : )

Corey and I finally got the pelmuts up but I must tell you it was hard work getting them secure.  He built them to last forever.  If you want to read more about it go here.

 We are getting the anchors put in the wall to hold them up because it was a little heavy.

 (anchors)

You also have to use L-Brackets to mount them up on the wall.

After all the hard work..here they are up in my kitchen

 

 I am so happy with them.  It really was a family project and we had a great time doing it.

What are your favorite window treatments?

BTW..

Tile is being laid in the Byron job.  Paint has gone on the walls and the space has so much more life.  It is so exciting : )

When It Calls...I Can't Help But Answer

Good Afternoon!

I don't know about you guys but I am so enjoying this warm weather.  I personally believe we have skipped over spring and gone right into summer.  I must say it's alright with me and calms down the yearning from my island roots.

Let's talk about calming the beast for a minute..

I was out with my kids to get them summer clothes and I promise I was heading to the clothing store but I just happened to end up someplace completely different.  

I told them we would make it to where we needed to go..

I went in with something in mind because I was tired of seeing this empty wall in my kitchen..

and this caught my eye (kitchen not yet finished..just new paint and knobs)

Yes, it was love at first sight.

I was so proud.

Here it is in the space.

I love the way it looks against the wall color.  Oh..I also walked out with this too..

The wall clock.  I got all this for a steal.  This clock reminds me of this one

from Restoration Hardware.

BTW...I did take my kids to get some stuff for summer.  We were all happy : )

Are you getting spring fever to do some shopping as well?
