Our Doors to Storage home project, has been a bigger hit than we ever dreamed! I’ve even run across it on Pinterest a few times now! CraZy-Ness! Well, we knew there would be people who thought it was a pretty cool idea, out there somewhere. But we’re glad so many have loved it, and what’s more, have been inspired to make some benches and shelves, using old doors, in their … Read More
We’re guessing many of you love to see little home transformations, and creative spaces, as we do, and that’s just what we hope to share with you today. The photos we share will likely explain what we have done. But if you have just a bit of time, grab a drink of choice, and let us amuse you with a little more about the birth of this project.

We are still very much working on our long-term front garden-yard plans, and we’re far from completion. A little each year, as we need to roll, but we’ve enjoyed the planning and the progress along the way. We always wish we were further ahead than behind, but that’s the way it goes.
Our mailbox out front by the street, has really been looking like it needs some sprucing up, … Read More
In addition to our continual progress of finishing the inside of our home since our major house reconstruction, we’ve had a continually growing list of ideas for smaller projects around our home.
One of them has involved this ladder inside our home.
It has been right here where you see it, every since we bought our home in 1995. What has changed a lot, is almost everything around the ladder. … Read More
Ask anyone who lives with me. I’m a sheer-compulsive-pet-peeved- maniac about certain aspects of our home. The sudden sight of clutter is one. It sends me over the edge. Like a sunny 30 mph Sunday drive, to a buck-60 in clap of thunder.
I’ve analyzed my seemingly over-reactions enough, to figure some of myself out. The sight of clutter, instantly clutters my mind. An organized mind of thoughts and agendas … Read More
Here is the kitchen project I have been SO excited to share with you all! Again, this was one of my brainstorms, and I’ll be darned if I should’ve thought of it sooner!
So….take a good look at the photo below. This is a stairwell down into the middle level where our laundry room is, to my (finished) photography studio, and to the (unfinished) basement on the other side. … Read More
Back in 1995, when we were searching for our first home to purchase, there were many unique features about this house, that gave us reason to fall in love with it, and seal the deal. The loft, that overlooked the living space (now gone) w/ the ladder that led to it, the kitchen floor cabinets with roll out shelves, the bathroom with the separate vanity area, the bubble shower door … Read More
Some rain came that late afternoon, as the guys hurriedly tried to get the house covered. Most of the second floor was completed at this point, with the exception of {A}’s room and the stairwell.
The next morning the crew showed up, took the tarps off and got back to work. They started on the new cathedral ceiling, and the walls and roof of {A}’s room.
As the day wore … Read More
Before we move on to some real ‘action’, we wanted to take you back inside for a minute….
……re-posting this image, because we want to draw your attention to the ladder you see on the left. Now, as you know by now, we had had this little 2 bedroom home, and found ourselves in the very blessed but unexpected position, of triplets joining our family. So, we made do – … Read More
As we dreamed and brainstormed about what would be an ideal home layout for our family, Michael really began by drawing floor plans. We knew we wanted a 4 season sunroom. We also wanted an area off of the kitchen that could accommodate a big long table, for eating and schooling, and also floor cabinets for all of our schooling books, supplies and tools. So we decided a room along … Read More
