The retiling of the fire place begins with the demo.. ug what a pain.. Thank goodness for my husband and his nephew, they did all the hard labor getting rid of the old tile and the old mastic. I will post more on the finished project when I can get some good light.
So I have a discovered I have a new passion. I love small DIY projects around my house. I am so excited to start on a new one that I feel like a child waiting in line to get into Disneyland. (I wish I was this excited to work out). We have completed some small projects like re-tiling the fire place and painting the fire place wall. I just painted this pony wall that separates the family room from the kitchen. On to a more ambitious job, that is to put up some wainscoting in this awkward niche between my stairwell and my downstairs closet. I will take some before and after photos to keep you posted on my progress. I found my inspiration from Thrifty Decor Chick's blog and some others, but Thrifty Decor Chick has to be the best decorating blog out there. She shows you how to do it with pictures.. Good for me since I am visual learner.
