Before and After

Since everyone else is posting their cool home renovation projects, I decided to post mine. This weekend Dustin successfully taught me how to use a drill! I'm not sure if I'm happy or sad yet(now I don't have an excuse why he has to hang things for me). So after quite the ordeal of showing me how to hang these roman shades, I was able to do most of it myself. Doing this made me appreciate all of the work he's done to the house so far, it was exhausting! This is kind of a bad picture of what they looks like, with the blinding snow in the background and all. Dustin liked the old ones better, but I think once I repaint (probably a while down the road; I'm still recovering from hanging the blinds) he'll change his mind. They don't really go with the yellow as much as the other ones. Any suggestions on what color we should paint?

I liked the curtains! Dustin will get used to them...or learn to just look past them! You need to ask your sister what color she thinks about colors...she is the expert decorator! Or...persuade Lacey to redo a room in her house with her decorator and then use that color! That worked for our kitchen color, our chocolate brown in the nursery, and your basement color! Thanks Lace!

Hmmm... I may have some "Practical Beige" left over after I paint my kitchen. Hey, you help me paint and I'll come over and help you! It is much more fun with somebody else and a bottle of wine (I'll even drink your grape stuff...)

And you will learn to LOVE the drill. At one point ours quit working and I went and bought a new one...I just love, love, love mine!

P.S. I like the shades too!

"Grape stuff??" Is that supposed to be an insult to our HIGH QUALITY, GREAT TASTING wine???

Micki -Let me know when you're ready to paint your kitchen. I'm in! I haven't started looking at colors for ours yet, but I could definitely use some help when I get around to it.
