Couple of Keys

He said. She said.

We Believed the Hype.

Hoping for the best we walked into Home Depot yesterday and purchased our paint. We chose Behr‘s Premium Plus Ultra which is supposed to be primer&paint in one. We had originally planned on trekking over to Sherwin-Williams but were scared away by the average price tag. Although Behr’s PPU has gotten mixed reviews online, I…

Books: Domino’s The Book of Decorating

i finally purchased domino’s book of decorating (after months of procrastinating). if you’re not familiar with domino, it is the (now defunct) self-proclaimed magazine guide to living with style. in the book the editors write about how they’d like to think they are partly responsible for bridging the gap between professional designers and DIYers like…

Color us decided.

As we’ve begun to try and decide on how to spend our money on big ticket items (i.e. sofa, dining room table) we’ve come to find that we’re not as in sync with each other’s taste as we might have thought. So compromise is the name of the game. However, we both decided we wanted…

Patio/Deck/Garden Ideas

So I think one of the things we were most excited about when we visited the house was the deck. The thought of entertaining in this area is probably what has us so exciting. Besides the existing bench that surrounds the tree, seating is something I’d like to improve in this space. There are a…

White Kitchens, Possible DIY?

As we (impatiently) count the days until the big move (73 days!) we’re trying to prioritize what we want to tackle first. Besides the usual setting up of the cable, switch the utilities to our names etc. We’re both coming from shared apartment living and both relied semi-heavily on what the other person brought into…

RASTERBATION IS NOT A CRIME

a number of years ago, i came across a pretty sweet program called the rasterbator. sounds rather dirty but i can assure you it’s not. what it does is take a picture, blow it up, and print it out on individual sheets of paper for you to hang up on your wall. if you’re a…

Bachelorocity

i think a lot of men get pre-move in jitters before the big day. to me, those jitters have always been the fear that a) my freedom to go out and do “guy” (stupid) shit will be taken away, and b) my living area will be invaded by all sorts of femininity. because of that,…
