1. we had the exterior painted. backyard fence was removed, veggie garden removed (this really opened up the yard for the boys to play ball). screens were replaced on the porch. here it is prepped to be painted, you can see the paint is chipped on the trim from powerwashing

and after. Benjamin moore Linen White. the house looks SO great snow covered.

see – no fence. which, by the way we posted the fence on craigs list for free and a nice family with a dog and young kids removed it and hauled it away – what a great way to recycle!

I love the sky blue porch ceilings, a midnight navy front door, new doorbell and door hardware, and a cute wooden “no soliciting” sign.
2. the mudroom. Scott planked the walls with 1×6’s and added a shelf. paint + new floor + curtain in place of lower cabinet doors. I love carpet in my mudroom!! everyone has their own bin for hats and gloves in the red wooden piece of furniture – less frequently used items placed on the shelf in baskets.


3. a new dining room fixture and apple on the table – thanks to kelly. i love love love it.
4. kitchen pendants (Kelly again)
