We did something similar for Hallowe'en but with a skeleton. I just put him in odd spaces to surprise the boys (teenagers at the time). I stood him up in their shower, put him in their closet, had him wear an apron in the kitchen, sit at the table for dinner or in the recliner to watch a movie -...

My husband is picking up the brick for our parlour/living room today. We are installing a brick accent wall behind the couch with a planned picture rail moulding. We need to wait till this room is painted before we install the brick, so its another project for another month (but will be...

My projects always take longer than I plan for, but front sunporch and kitchen porch projects are well on their way. This year has required some painting touch-ups so its been a bit more involved for time. As we move into week two we will still be working on these areas, but I feel so hopeful...

Impulse purchase on Etsy, ordered my "postcards for Christmas"! I really love postcards and have wanted to send them instead of cards for awhile. Very excited for them to arrive.

I am not a fan of violent movies, but do watch with my son as he likes a partner to the terror. I SERIOUSLY hope this is the last one! lol

I started porches early, painting needed this year so completed the front steps and new railing; adding a fresh coat on the storm door. Still lots of patches and painting needed - our home is over 109 years old so the list of ongoing repairs seems endless.

We are known as the 'spider house' by the trick or treaters. Most of my decorations are spider theme. I have a large door wide spider that hangs over the outside porch entrance door (its eyes light up), spiders are spaced along the lower house windows (they are about dinner plate size) with...

I spend a lot of time in my kitchen, not just for meal prep but it seems that it's the room that gets the most use with four men in the house that always seem hungry ;) and that translates to a mess. Have a box that I am adding the things that I don't typically use and have no storage room for...

I do not have any guest spaces, but did focus on maintenance of spaces and prep for the fall. Continued work on boys rooms and added another bag of items to be donated - and dropped them off! Holiday Prep: received the Santa mail stamp I ordered from etsy for wrapping gifts. Emptied the food...

"Week Eight sees us down and dirty in the heart of the home: the kitchen. It's Kitchen Week at the Holiday Grand Plan! This week, we'll clear the decks for the holiday cooking to come with a kitchen clean-up and declutter. Routing out the year's dirt and disorder gives us a fresh, clean start...

"Guest bedrooms and other bathrooms use the same procedures for master bathroom and bedroom. Clean, declutter and organize guest spaces so they are convenient to set up and use. Take note of your area and surrounding. Make lists of those items you need to replace. Donate or toss what needs to...

I LOVE this! Wonderful job.

Two pie plates, two bowls and three beer glasses from a quick kitchen tidy Saturday.

This week I work on sons blanket, a couple new projects for Hallowe'en - a mesh garland for around the door and a wreath.

Two mats rolled up and donated. Nothing is wrong with them, I just don't like them.

Working on sons blanket, nearing the end!

We had beautiful weather for Thanksgiving, worked in the yard and had dinner just with the five of us. Was very nice.
