The Nest

when i first began this little blog i fully intended to talk about our house and the renovations we're constantly making.

over the past 2 years we've been renting 2 of our 3 suites out...and  $12,000.00 in damages, three new floors, two floods and one full suite of switched out stainless steel appliances later (!), i'm finally ready to talk 

guess what? the moment we decided to stop renting out, our house became a cozy home. who knew being a landlord was so counterproductive? 

and who could have predicted that one tiny (forbidden) bichon frisé could result in 1,000 square feet of re-flooring & 4,000 square ft of re-painting in only 2 months? but its good. its soooo good to be home.

next? my {messy} studio tour.

Decision Making Process

4 metals, 5 colors + black diamonds

which stands out most?

we have a winner - black on black

refocus and start again, this time in reverse - 7 colors + 1 metal
