Showhouse








Today was my day off from work so Annette and I met at the showhouse to get measurements of the space. The interior pictures of the room were taken from my phone, so they are little blurry but can at least give an idea of how "unfinished" our space is! The owner of the house loves antiques and has A LOT of them! So they requested we use their furniture... something we didn't find out until after we selected our space, but we have to work with what we've got! Above you'll see the owner's sink with the fabric we chose for the window treatment and even the paint swatch (wall color, blue). Then below that is a picture of the owner's cabinet (we'll be transorming into a vanity) the sink will sit on top! The floors will be white marble w/gray veining (per owner). It will be a huge improvement! I can't wait until it's all put together!

Blogging!

Gosh, I feel like I have put my blog on the backburner lately as life has been busier than normal! Work has picked up tremendously (sigh of relief) with the $8000 first time homebuyer tax credit! Last Saturday alone we were at our capacity of 30 appointments!! And aside from that the showhouse project seems to take up most of my free time. But I promise to try and set aside a little more time for blogging! :) More to come soon...

Oh and before I forget, I wanted to welcome Mandi (my sister-in-law), my friend Beth (a little belated, sorry Beth) and Katie Jo (my friend) to the world of blogging!! haha! They all recently decided to start blogs of their own! I told them that if they're like me, it won't take long for them to become addicted!! :)
