Hello friends, happy summer weekend to you! I want to thank so many of you for offering very valuable insight on the kitchen design dilemma I posted about yesterday, there are so many things to consider in that decision, I’m truly grateful for your input!
We’re headed back to get started on more renovation projects in a week, and you’ve given me a lot to think about, so thank you. I also have some ideas about the fireplace I want to share with you and we’re so close to choosing the floor tile for the downstairs – we’re going with a wood lookalike porcelain tile throughout the entire first floor and I really like these options.
This weekend is another round of ‘Best of the Blogosphere’ and I hope you enjoy this collection of inspiring DIY ideas! Build a porch swing for enjoying time lingering outdoors spring through fall with Yellow Brick Home.
Make colorful outdoor cube lanterns that mimic the CB2 versions with a tutorial posted at HomeDit.
