Hi everyone! This will be another relatively short blog as there’s getting less to show you and less to write about. We both had busy work weeks so didn’t get a lot done during the week. But what we did accomplish looks fantastic! There were a few big accomplishments this week. First and foremost, IContinue reading “Let there be light!”

Hi everyone! This is going to be a fairly short and sweet blog as there’s really just one primary topic for it – doors and drawer fronts! I didn’t blog last week because we spent a lovely week back in Atlanta. We were able to do some lovely socially distanced socializing and catch up onContinue reading “Short and sweet”

OH MY GOODNESS!!! We have made so much progress in the past two weeks since we’ve been up here and I can’t wait for you to see it! Just a reminder that it was just two weeks ago yesterday when we demoed our kitchen. Last weekend we focused on the ceilings since they had toContinue reading “Our bitchin kitchen!”

That seemed to be the theme of this weekend’s work! It was a LOT of repetitive work but we got so much accomplished. If I’m honest with you, though, we both totally feel our age tonight! But before I get to that, I’ll share with you the fate of the fake rock. It met anContinue reading “Rinse and Repeat”

A big thanks to all of you who gave me ideas for the fake rock dilemma. I thought I’d give you an update and get your opinion on what I think I may do with it. First, we’ve made the decision to not replace the fence. So we’ll be pulling up the posts in theContinue reading “The fake rock dilemma”

For those of you who’ve been following along from the beginning, you know that this is the last room for us to tackle. We’ve accomplished a lot and now it’s time to finish things up! PriorContinue reading “#demoday”

Happy Sunday everyone! It’s been a busy week for us. As I mentioned last weekend, my mom, sister and brother-in-law came up last weekend. We did some work at the mountain house but also managed to have a little fun. My brother-in-law took some AMAZING drone videos of the house and property. If you feelContinue reading “Getting ready for some demo!”

It’s official. We are starting the kitchen! Sorry you missed a blog last week, but we were back in Atlanta to take delivery of the cabinet boxes since Ikea doesn’t deliver to the mountains. We also made a big decision to not try to be overachievers. Initially we had thought we’d buy the boxes fromContinue reading “And so it begins…”

Literally, one step at a time! This weekend was all about getting the stairwell done, and we made a lot of progress on that task. To get some perspective, when we started the renovation, the stairwell was enclosed and the door to it was at the top. Early on we moved the door to theContinue reading “One Step at a Time!”

The den and guest bathroom are officially wrapped up and I am a happy girl! We’ve had a productive five days since heading back up here Wednesday evening. Let’s take a look at what we’ve accomplished, and I’ll also share with you some projects in process. Starting with the guest bathroom. I mentioned we hadContinue reading “That’s a wrap!”
