A remodel or two...

I've been AWOL from the blog the past few months.  Hubby and I have been doing some remodeling in the house, which took a little longer than originally.

We started on our kitchen in February, with an inkling of what we wanted.  We added a mobile island, as we don't really have a large amount of counter space.  After the selection of the island from Amazon, we began the difficult process of selecting wall color.  We ended up picking a light gray for the walls and a darker gray for the trim and cabinets.  As we both work a lot, it took a LONG time to get the paint on the walls.

So, long story short, we finished the kitchen two weeks ago and I can now cook again.  There's nothing worse than eating fast food, pizza, and PB&J for a few months....  ugh....

The finished product.....

And now we move on to the rest of the house; the upstairs bedrooms will be switched and sorted.  In fact, we have discovered that hubby and I are clothing hoarders and just got rid of 10 bags of old clothes and linens!!  Not letting that happen again!!  :)

The next few weeks will be dedicated to purging, cleaning, and reorganizing the craft room.  We've purchased new tables from Ikea and will go back for more organizational items in a few weeks.

Picking up tables from Ikea...

I plan on having at least three tables, with room for my still-in-the-box Silhouette and my Cricut.  I also have purchased ink organizers from organizemore.com for my Distress Ink and other Ranger Ink.  And since I have just developed an addiction to Stampin' Up!, I will be ordering another ink organizer.  :)

In addition to the reorganization, I plan on purging quite a lot of unused craft supplies.  We have a 'scrapbook garage sale' at my work and I plan on filling a table or two with my supplies.  Then, I can take the money and get MORE, right??

I also plan on painting the walls from a dull white to either aqua or red.  I haven't quite decided yet, but either color will make me happy.

It's time for me to hit the hay... When I get my craft room complete, I will be sure to post pics!
