Crazy Household project weekend

Valentine's Day tulips | © kara hudson & karacooks.com

I hope y’all will bear with me as I get some projects finished, get some images edited, and get my thoughts together. I’m still working on my voice for the blog. I’m excited about posting more but I’m also feeling a little overwhelmed with all the possibilities of what I can post. I don’t want to be guilty of oversharing!!

This weekend I refinished the stair railing, painted the balusters and trim, painted the fireplace surround (and touched up the gloss white as long as I had that out for the trim), repurposed my Valentine’s Day bouquet to make the flowers last longer, and kept up with all the regular weekend chores as well. Ok, mostly kept up with the other chores.

And why is it that any household project requires at least 3 visits to Home Depot or Lowes? I never seem to get away with one trip at the beginning of the project!

Hope everyone had a good weekend and I promise, promise, promise that I’m going to post household updates with images soon!

    I seem to kind of buy everything I need at the beginning of a project, or at least I usually do. I have been meaning to fix something in the kitchen for some time now, though. I keep buying the parts I think I need, only to discover that they also do not fit. I think I’ll just let it be for the moment.

      I’m jealous. For some reason I always wind up forgetting one crucial element or running out of something necessary. Maybe as I get more comfortable with the process I’ll be better about getting everything I need. Or maybe having stuff on hand to fill in the blanks!
