At the beginning of the year I made a list of all the projects I want to get done in 2018. Then, I organized them by the quarter I thought I would get them done. Because the biggest project of the year will be the kitchen, which we’ll hopefully be starting on shortly the only other thing I put on the list for the first few months of the year was the foyer. It’s the smallest project on the 2018 list so it made sense to do that at the same time as our largest project of the year. Plus, I think it will be good for mental breaks from the kitchen when we really need them.

Happy Thursday, friends! Today I’m sharing something that’s been a long time coming, and that’s our bedroom curtains. I actually ordered these SO LONG ago. We waited a while for them to be delivered, and then, after they arrived I went on what felt like a never-ending search for curtain rods. I bought several, returned some, bought different, went to so many stores, and finally found these. And, even after I finally had the rods and the curtains, it took a while to find the time to actually install them.
Read moreTool Shed Ideas: A Design Plan
As I talked about in this post one of our current priorities is figuring out an outdoor storage solution. So, we’ve been brainstorming a lot of tool shed ideas. Everything from out of the box to DIY is on the table. Although, we’re currently leaning towards a DIY tool shed because we can customize it more and we think it will be less expensive. This is one of those things that we don’t really want to spend money on, but need to for our house to be more functional so we’re going to try and spend as little money as we can while also making it as nice as possible. But we are still searching for a pre-fab one, if we could find one for a good price I think we would go for it because of how much time it will save us. But, since we think we’ll be building one ourselves I thought I’d share what we’re thinking so far. Just click on any of the pictures for their source.

Happy Friday! I’m so excited to share a little foyer update with you guys today. Because it’s the first thing people see when they come in it’s been on my mind a lot lately. Plus, I think it makes our lives a lot easier if the foyer is functioning well. Having a place to put things when we come in and an area to keep our shoes organized is so great.
