Nice Bathroom Colors

More likely for the first-floor bathroom....

The Future Fireplace

So how do I find this fireplace? It's basically perfect.

The Front Yard (95% done)

Catherine and I spent Labor Day fixing up the front yard. I think we did a pretty good job for not really knowing what we were doing.





















We still need a couple more bags of soil and some stones cut in half.

Mmm an Office Someday?

Loving the color contrast, the white sheers, the Expedit-type bookcase and of course that light!

Simple Fireplace Mantle

My living room has an old coal fireplace that's been closed up, so now it's just a part of the wall that jutts out for no reason. Someday I'd like to open the fireplace back up, hopefully making it usable, and add a mantle. Our TV is already mounted on this wall, so it would have to move up a bit. I've been looking around at mantles (not that this is a priority project or anything) and they've all looked too bulky for the space. This would be a simple solution -- and I bet pretty inexpensive, too.

D.C. Pride

I wouldn't go out and buy this for myself, but it would be a cool gift (for me or others). Comes in a poster (black and white or red and blue) or a screen print (burgundy and tan, brown and lime green, or gray and white -- my fave).

Hmmm Maybe?

I think this is way cool, but I don't know where I'd put it. Maybe in the front? Eh, that's kind of weird...
