follow the leader


I stumbled upon the beauty that is Pinterest. I'm still figuring it out, but I like what I see.

{go there now}

On another note, I feel like owning our own home just makes me want to do so many projects! It gets overwhelming and I want to add another one to the mix. I want to redo our laundry room, which will hopefully get some new pretties {see, new washer and dryer!} soon. A girl can dream, right? Here is a pic of how it is now. A little blah.

{just imagine an old, but functional washer and dryer under the cabinets}

Here is some visual candy of what I hope it will look like {sometime} soon.



This one {below} is my fav. It seriously looks like an updated, way prettier, version of our space!

Do you find yourself jumping around between projects? I think I just get new inspirations and have to jump on them!

the garage sale gods...

...they have been good to me.

Or maybe, Tyler's mom found a super sweet estate sale 4th of July weekend and took me to it, twice. :)

I hope everyone had a safe and fun holiday! I know this is a little late. We spent the long weekend with Tyler's parents in Coos Bay. I love the beach. Like, looooove it. I insist we go there every time we visit CB {and it's nothing new to Tyler, since he grew up there}. Anyways, beach rant over, we've been bringing lots of things home lately that will leave me with projects for daaays, so hang with me. I've just got some before pics to show you, and will slowly show the afters as I figure out and finish them!

{everything soon to be repurposed/reused}

{i am curious about THIS. not sure what it is, but they had lots of these pieces and it screams headboard to me. Almost done with this redo and will share soon!}

Last weekend was busy for us too. I'm not going to show pictures yet, but lets just say instead of cleaning our garage, we may have added up to 3 new {old} pieces of furniture. Oops.

Happy almost hump day!
