Our Kitchen Remodel

Hi Friends,
I have been so super busy this summer. If you don't know we moved into a new home! It is an older home so we have been fixing it up all summer. Here was our biggest project to date....


















We found some nasty stuff when we started pulling the old kitchen out and some seriously tacky stuff! What do you think of our finished product? I still don't have dishwasher installed but after almost 2 weeks without runnning water in the kitchen I'm quite content with that for now lol. We just love the way it turned out! Next project...CRAFT ROOM! YIPPY! Hopefully I'll be back with another update soon on that ;)

4 Months to Chirstmas Blog Hop

Hi Everyone and welcome to the 4 Months to Christmas Blog Hop,
If you have arrived here from  Kerry's Blog you are in the right spot. Well, my craft room is still not up and running since the big move (there were just too many renos we needed to work on first) but like I said last month I am the queen of planning ahead! I was able to get my summer Christmas cards (that does not sound right, I know lol) done before I had to pack up my old scrapbooking room mid July!

If you are new you might be wondering how this whole blog hop works.... there is a group of us crafters that have committed to creating two Christmas cards and (one die cut and one stamped image) posting them on the 25th each month and boy are we getting our cards done early and I LOVE it!
Thanks for stopping by today. Sara's Blog  blog is your next stop.
Happy Crafting!
Tara
