Cover-up and Updates


Life in the Lashway house is good!  We are well underway with the cabinet redo and we are motivated to put up the new back splash today/tomorrow.  Hopefully just in time to have friends over on Saturday night.  

I recently covered up one of my least favorite walls in the house.  It has an ugly intercom panel and the a/c panel as well....right smack dab in the middle of the wall...dagnabbit! 

I've heard of a few different ways to cover these items up, either with a bracketed picture frame for easy access or a deep picture/painting.  I opted for the deep painting...for 12.99 at TJmaxx.

{disgusting...}

{ahhhh so much better - see how deep the painting is? just hangs right over everything}

{such a great wedding gift from friends...I love that it has a home now!}

And now the updates...


These cabinets should be wrapped up by tomorrow...with a full post on them and the process later :)

I must say...Paul has been awesome at helping with this....I think he might be better at it than me...!! sometimes being OCD can be a good thing...especially went painting/taping.



Since painting our wine buffet navy (seen here)...I bought blue pillows to tie it all in...



And attempted to cover up the curtain rod fiasco (seen here)...still haven't fixed that...probably never will 


Living room to date...


See y'all next week! Hopefully with a bunch of updates.  Paul and I are really loving this process - we are learning so much.  We watched a video on putting up tile this morning on youtube - we're pumped!

I told him I should maybe rename the blog to "2 accountants + 1 home = Stockholder's Equity"..HA!
