Monday, Monday

Happy Monday, sugar plums!

I hope you had a lovely weekend, ours went way too fast but luckily Monday counts as my weekend so it's not over just yet.

And today is shaping up to be the best day of the weekend.

Why, you ask?

Because we're getting the stairs finished!

The last time I showed you the stairs there was a huge scaffolding blocking them and we were using the elevator to get upstairs.

Over the past two months Jus has painstakingly hung drywall, mudded over the seams, and textured the walls. And a couple of weeks ago we were able to take down the scaffolding and walk upright once again.





We've torn up the carpet and are ready to start painting!

Want a preview of the color I've chosen for the stairs?
Valspar's Lyndhurst Victorian Rose

Yes, I know I won the Husband lottery, now if only Jus'll let me paint the kitchen cabinets magenta...

What are your plans for today?

PS Have you signed up for the giveaway yet? I can't believe I hit 100 comments on one post! Woohoo!
PPS I reopened my Etsy shop! Check out My Wish For You for some vintage goodness!

So pretty! I can't wait to see the finished product. I think what you two are doing is so cool - I love seeing restoration in progress!

Can I borrow your hubs? He's definitely better at home improvement than mine is!

That's neat to see you're making progress! I'm sure you can't wait until everything is exactly how you want it...but it's awesome that you guys are putting so much hands on work on your own home!

Can't wait to see them finally finished.. I'm a fan of that shade of pink (currently wearing it in dress form!).
