weekend update: construction progress report

before

progressing...

yay to a wrap around bar in the kitchen.

and yesterday's labor of love... widening the hallway opening and patching the wood floors :)

now these lovely sliding closet doors (ahem my temporary closet for now) will be going away.

hopefully soonish.

garrett's plan is to add a linen closet inside the bathroom (making the right closet door disappear) and my lovely idea for the other side is a coat closet hidden with a bookshelf.

(stole this amazing idea off of pinterest)

ta da.

oh how thankful i am for my handyman.

the pictures may be deceiving, but i feel like construction is really coming along.

i could not be more excited to see the finished product!

... and back to stripping floors for me.

love, linds

crafts, CONSTRUCTION, and the crockpot

need i say more?

the kitchen is FINALLY demoed and i could not be more excited to see pretty white cabinets and granite countertops go in. sigh. i refuse to complain, garrett has been working so hard and i swear he impresses me daily with what he has accomplished. i love my handyman :)

where am i cooking you may ask? answer: out of a crockpot in the garage

it's actually not so bad...between my mom and pinterest i have been trying out quite a few new recipes that i must say have been a hit with my better half.

recipes to come. i promise.

here's to dreaming of this soon...

...dreaming of a white kitchen. :)

love, linds
