2012 HOME PROJECT LIST

Since I moved in to Hawthorn Drive I have made it my personal mission to nest on a budget with Murph. He was very understanding when I told him it was hard to feel at home in a home that was his, not mine so we have worked over so much in the last 7 months. Here's a breakdown, well of what I can remember anyway

Laundry Room
- Wall paint, shelf paint and ceiling paint
- Storage baskets and other accessories
- Light fixture
- Spray paint floor grates, hanging bar, and wall fixture
- Outlet covers

Guest Bedroom 1
- Wall paint and ceiling paint
- Bedding

Guest Bathroom

- Spray paint light fixtures and floor grates
- Caulk
- Towel bars and shower curtain rod
- Shower curtain, towels, rug, frames and prints

Phew that was a lot more than I expected to type! We are in the ongoing process of converting all of the light fixtures to oil rubbed bronze finishes, (only 4 to go!) and making all of our switches and outlets white as the owners changed most on the 1st floor and nothing upstairs, or anything hidden. We are also spraying all of the floor grates and air returns oil rubbed bronze as we go (what can I say I am a sucker for all matching fixtures ... in ORB!). I will eventually show photos, I know I say it all the time, but I will! What an amazing transformation Hawthorn Drive is going through a few hundred dollars at a time :)
