A new venture...

So I have been thinking about starting another blog. I'm thinking of a new one so that this one can focus mainly on my family and our lives. It's kind of a crazy idea for me because I can't even keep up with this one, but I am making a resolution to do better. Plus I downloaded the blogger app, so I can do it from my phone. Hehe! I feel like its cheating. It doesn't take much effort to blog that way.
Anyways, I would like this new blog to be about my passions. Mainly about our journey with this 100 year old home we purchased. We have been putting a lot of work in to what I call our "Love Shack". PS when I say work I am really talking about my handy hubby. I am better with making orders and having him do it. :) With gutting the kitchen and re-doing the original hardwood floors, I have lots to talk about. Plus with our moving from Utah, only taking what fit in our tiny trailer, I have been having fun starting from scratch. With this home I have had the opportunity to do things differently. For starters, I am going for a different design concept. I'm really choosing things I love and not settling. When I say not settling, I mean i am not afraid to change things so the are unique. And exactly what I want. I am taking time and getting furniture pieces that I can invision filling my space perfectly. My husband may call me picky, but I would say something's are just worth waiting for. Plus, I am a yard sale and thrift store junky. Which may sound a bit scary to some folks, but to other like me can understand. There are some people that can only see things as they are, but others like me can see the poltiential in all things. I pride myself in being able to see how trash can be turned in to a treasure. So I hope the new blog can have tutorials, and before and afters. I love following blogs like this, so I have an idea of the kinds of things I want to include. I really enjoy being inspired by blogs like that and hope I can do the same for others.
I would love feed back from my friends and family. Here are is a little "before and after" sneak peek...
