It's been a drag but I almost see the finish! CABINETS ARE IN!!!

Well - its been a while.  I feel like I have been on the run lately and not much down time.  Good news to report - cabinets are in, tile is down and hopefully we will be in very soon!!!   The cabinets are by Marsh Furniture.  I wish they sold directly because the actual selection of cabinets does not have sufficient drawer space in the kitchen!

Great way to start the weekend!  One of the reasons I decided to do this blog is because, like so many other people - I really do enjoy expressing my creativity! What better way than to openly share my ideas to the world and hope that others get inspired to pass it along.  Over the years I've found that I would do things in my home and then other people would leave and go back and try to replicate my ideas.
