It’s been a while since I’ve shown you our cabin in detail. About five years actually. I thought about it often, but never took the time to take the photos. Now that the cabin is for sale, this will surely be the last tour, and what better time since I can take advantage of the professional photos that were recently taken? Let me share with
Updating a Dated Kitchen
If you’ve ever renovated a kitchen, you know it’s a huge undertaking. In our former home all we did was replace appliances and countertops and even that was a big deal! There’s so many decisions to be made, and they need to be made with a great deal of forethought because for most of us, a kitchen redo is something we will do once and be done
Fall Home Tour At The Cabin
The leaves are turning, and countless farmers markets dot the landscape selling their wares of pumpkins, richly colored mums, impossible to resist donuts and hot apple cider. Here in New England, Fall is celebrated in a big way, and I’m pretty sure when it comes to homes that lend themselves to Fall decorating, log cabins are at the top of the food chain. Their rustic
An Amish Glider
I think it was meant to be. Make that, I know it was meant to be. About a thousand miles away in Key Largo this past winter, there they were, displayed amongst the other items at the upscale flea market located nearby our houseboat. It was love at first sight, and sitting on one confirmed my love was not unrequited. It hugged my body like
My Achy Breaky Arms
I’m thinking of giving up my gym membership and becoming a mason. At least I would if I had a gym membership. Now I know why masons not only charge a lot, but have killer biceps. You probably already guessed what this post is about. The stone retaining wall is finished! Can I get an AMEN!?? Here’s what we had to work with
The Pretty Rug and Not-So-Pretty Yard
If you’ve ever shopped for rugs on-line, you know too well how overwhelming it can be. There are thousands more to choose from than in any retail store, and after a while you feel like your eyes will pop out of their sockets. What made it worse was I was looking for not one, but two rugs. Unlike the opinions for the living room rug
The Living Room is Ready For Its Close Up!
Well, we did it. We finally found recliners that not only are super comfy, but look a lot more stylish than most. Not an easy task. Trust me. After searching on-line for hours and then pounding the pavement and coming up short, I have to give credit where credit is due…Fisherman found them. And you thought he was just another pretty face. A
My New Kitchen Plate Rack
A short time ago I mentioned I was going to order a plate rack through Etsy. Well, here it is! What do you think? I’m really happy with it. It’s exactly what I was looking for. I wanted something simple and not too deep. If you want to store dinner plates on a kitchen rack, it really needs to be a minimum of
A Cheater’s Guide to Outdoor Curtains & Final Porch Reveal!
Well, the porch is finally done. The finishing touch was the curtains. I’ve been searching for weeks for some affordable outdoor fabric and came up short, so I decided to use …wait for it…wait for it… SHOWER CURTAIN LINERS! I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking I’m losing it. Well, let me tell you that shower curtains, and even liners, are not what they used
My $3.00 Hobby Lobby Artwork!
I’ve been pretty lucky lately when it comes to finding some good deals. The one thing I wasn’t so lucky about was remembering to bring my USB cable for the camera so I could show you what they are! I remembered everything else, but I think the cable is attached to the computer tower at home. That’s ok, because I think this one tops them
