Fairy Crafty

Read about my crafts, second-hand store finds and things that I turn from treelawn trash into treasure by reinventing things and making them new for us to enjoy!...I have Fifth Avenue taste, but a very thrifty budget.

Packing and Painting...

Well, continuing to pack boxes, bags, do laundry, etc.... Hubby called me to tell me that he found a REALLY nice tub for us! We are trying to get this house in a somewhat "liveable" state ASAP. We are moving in two weeks....Oh wow...only two weeks!!!!! Somehow, I just don't see it!

I've been packing, taking everything off the walls. When hubby came home last night to show me the tub---WOW!!!!!!!!! I couldn't believe it! How lucky we were! Some new homeowners didn't want it, and it couldn't be sold...there are a couple of dings...but WHO CARES! It's BEAUTIFUL!!!! Since he had a bit more room in the truck, he took some boxes and a small kitchen table that we will put in our breakfast room...and since we are having people over for Memorial Day Weekend...I thought it was a bit important to have things to put food on, etc....

Hopefully, we will start painting this weekend!! Maybe then things will start sinking in and this "shell" will start looking more like our new home! I am so excited! Here is the kitchen. Since we aren't able to redo it, we are going to temporarily fix it with paint---and LOTS of it! All the cabinets will to be painted...and that backsplash......well--not sure what I'll be able to do with that yet! And the breakfast room will need to be tied into the kitchen as well! Hopefully, I'll be able to get this all primed at least.

We will be out at the new house until Tuesday....so, no posts until then. Hopefully, I'll have a lot to update you on!
