DIY Workbench
We spent the weekend finally building the workbench of our dreams! The plastic folding tables we have been using all of these years are finally getting retired yayyy!

Library Ladder Install
After two years of progress in our home library we installed our custom rolling ladder this weekend. And I am in Love. It is just what we needed in the room to finish it off.

Operation ‘Organize All The Things’
I LOVE an organized life. I feel like our home runs smoothly when things are organized and in their place. We have had our home for 3 years now and have been putting our stamp on the place little by little. I got some really cool power tools for Christmas and couldn't wait to put 'em… Continue reading Operation ‘Organize All The Things’
Chalk Board Wall
One of this week's house projects was monumental. When we first moved into our home I created a memo board section on a wall near the garage entry. This awkward section of our family room was great for keys, bags, and mail. Notice the boring beige paint (which I have sworn to vanquish from the house,… Continue reading Chalk Board Wall
