Denise: Oh, your bathroom is so pretty! We did ours a year ago but for some reason the border won't stay up. I think it's because the fan is old and just doesn't do the job removing moisture like it should. I had seen someone do sponge painting in a pretty blue and I thought I wouldn't mind trying that. They did it halfway up and then they did the edge with a stencil. It was really pretty when it was done and I think it would be the answer to our moisture problem. Your background here is really

Busy, but not blah, blah, bloggin' about it

With a glance at the dates on my entries, it would appear that progress has come to a halt on the house, but such is not the case.  If anything, I've simply been too busy to stop working to write about our progress. 

A few of the bigger items...

*refinished kitchen table
*rearranged and wallpapered boys' room
*stripped wallpaper from upstairs hallway
*removed plaster from stairwell (b-i-g job)
*removed all vegetation from approximately 375 square feet of landscape
*planted roughly ten containers, including plum tree and arborvitae
*spread three yards of rich, black mulch
*demolished front steps (concrete blocks and brick)

Just a few progress shots...
