What’s In The Box

Apparently I have wedding on the brain these days as I have yet another wedding related project for you this evening (the first project was the first dance art).  Although this project is a little more hybrid like and includes a little organization and a little wedding.  The other day I was trying to organize … Read more

First Dance Wedding Art

It’s officially, Colby and I have been married for exactly three months (as of yesterday).  And we JUST booked our honeymoon and JUST sent all our disposable cameras from the reception to be developed and JUST sent out the last thank you note and JUST made our first piece of wedding related art.  Run on … Read more

Guitar Hanging

Tonight’s project is quick and dirty, kind of like…wait….I’m not gonna go there…not tonight.  That’s more like a late night Saturday night post and not a late for a Thursday work night as I’m blogging away and really dreading to wake up and go to the office on Friday morning post.  So anyway…we hung some … Read more

Heroes In A Half Shell – Berkus Power

Consider me a bandwagoner.  I hopped on and hopped on big time with the Nate Berkus for Target line.  I have definitely visited the Nate Berkus line for Target on at least five occasions.  Jury is still out whether or not the first visit counted since there was no Nate Berkus gear on display.  I … Read more

Graco Paint Sprayer Review

One of the keys to finally finishing painting the corner hutch, which we revealed back here, was our investment in a paint sprayer.  I haven’t always been pro spray painting.  You could say that I’ve crossed party lines.  Sorry…I couldn’t help myself throwing in a little election night pun.  Consider yourselves lucky that I’m not … Read more

I’ve Got A Secret

The secret closet door china hutch is painted…boom!  And all setup and fully stocked…double boom! When we last left off in our little “let’s turn a china hutch into a hidden closet door” saga, we had yet to paint the hutch.  And boy did this guy need a couple coats of paint.  It needed paint … Read more

Put A Fork In It Our Roof Is Shingled

It’s official…we can stick a fork it in.  Our roofing project is done-zo! Instead of “Roofing With The Campbells”, I should have named the series of this post “Roofing With Mr. Campbell, Angie’s Brother, And His Friend Adam While Angie Snapped Pics From The Driveway.”  But that was just too long of a title.  I’m … Read more

How To Calculate Shingle Quantity

As promised yesterday when I introduced our little “Roofing With The Campbells” series where we’ll be chronicling the task of re-shingling our home, today is the big “How To Calculate Shingle Quantity” post.  And of course what would an epic bloggy series be without an equally epic logo?!  That’s what I thought! Before we could … Read more

Bats In The Belfry

The other night I had one of those “whoa” moments.  It’s the end…I repeat…the end of October.  What happened?!  Where did the month go?!  Or more importantly…why haven’t I decorated for Halloween yet?!  I’m wasting precious Halloween decor time here since there’s only a discreet window of opportunity for Halloween decor.  I hadn’t even crafted … Read more

Been Hanging Around

Now I have the Counting Crows song “I’ve Been Hanging Around” stuck in my head.  Sweet (she says sarcastically).  At least it’s a good song that reminds me of my high school days.  On second thought, maybe that’s not such a good thing.  Anyway, we’ve got a new kitchen closet organizer hanging around these days … Read more

Take A Peak At My Drawers

It’s not so much my drawers that you’re gonna get to take a peak at tonight as it’s more like my baskets.  Closet baskets to be more specific.  You thought I meant underwear, didn’t you?!  Silly fools!  Anyway, yesterday we left you hanging Cliff Hanger style and showed you our finished, trimmed up, stained up, … Read more

Finally It’s Happened To Me

Is it stuck in your head too?  You know…the nineties pop song?!  Let me help you remember.  I introduce to you the musical stylings of Ms. CeCe Peniston circa 1991. It’s coming back to you now, isn’t it.  Welcome to my head where that song has been on perma repeat for the last 48 hours … Read more

A Goose In Sheep’s Clothing

So this blog post is about one part check out the rugs I picked up at Ikea last weekend for only $9.99 each… And about eight parts oh my gosh check out our Goose in sheep’s clothing. Poor Goose wasn’t entirely happy about this.  But dang that dog will do ANYTHING for a cookie.  His … Read more

Burlap Bags

One of my favorite “perks” of getting married (other than marrying my best friend…cheese police…cheese police!) is the registry completion discounts.  No joke, those discounts are nice!  Of course I know why the stores have these perks.  The marketing geek in me says that it entices poor brides to spend their wedding money at their … Read more
