Other than when the crawl space flooded, I don’t think I’ve talked much about our basement. But now, I have all the basic home gym equipment set up! Gym closed? Bad weather? No more excuses for not working out!
Painting the Inside of Our Fireplace
For the last two months of COVID-19 I’ve had “paint the inside of fireplace” on my weekend DIY to-do list. Then, this weekend I had a slight tweak in my back on Saturday morning and decided to take the day off. Instead, I checked off painting the inside of our fireplace off my list!
Office Curtains and Blinds
After almost three years of living here, I finally installed some office curtains and blinds! It’s also been a long time since I wrote about anything house related.

Currently: June & July 2019
Time flies when you’re having fun! I even forgot to do a May Currently, but I’m back at it with a recap of June and July. You can see from the photo that we’re making progress with our living room makeover, but it’s been low on the priority list.

Black (Benjamin Moore Onyx) Interior Doors
I kept seeing black interior doors and loving how they add so much depth to a room. With allย our walls being Sherwin Williams Alabaster and white doors, I figured we could stomach some color- if you consider Benjamin Moore Onyxย a color.
Fall Decor + A Birthday Mirror
Even though it’s been in the 80s and 90% humidity in Cincinnati lately and I still have fresh hydrangeas in vases, I still pulled out some fall decor.
The Downside to Jute Rugs
