Here we go...


The new year has begun..

I'm deciding on my first project.

The list is getting long-

*paint hallway
*paint front door- unsure about the colour.

(loving this red)

*revamp tv stand
*repaint kitchen cabinetry

(Loving the blue and white combo)

*buy a new lounge for our family room

(love to relax on this one)

*spruce up my roadside rescued outdoor table setting..

Handy man is home on holidays so I'm going to use and abuse his labour skills whilst I can.

I'll let you know when I decide on the first job I'm tackling
and I 'hope you continue to drop by to see how I'm going.

Winston our new puppy is settling in well and is sleeping through the night_YIPPEE!!

(the collar thing isn't very popular with him)

    Hi Tara,

    your project list is as long as ours. Once you have finished painting would you like to pop over to ours?? We have to finish painting the house and the little fence I build two years ago! :O Winston is very cute :) Tamara x

    All the best with your projects...look forward to seeing them here! Funny how puppies hate their collars at first then look forward to you putting them on later in life.
