But.. We’d just finished working on Jack’s nursery for the last year or so and I didn’t want to start on any big projects.So I said we could do it, but we really should just put the cabinets up, power through it, and be done in like 2 weeks.

Famous last words, of course.. Chris actually got the old shelving ripped  out and the new cabinets up in about 24 hours, which was an awesome start to the project.But then it was all the little details like adding in the little wood countertop, trimming things out, and painting all the cabinets that feel like they took forever, as usual.You’d think I would have learned by now!.

I absolutely love it now and I’ve been spending the last little while getting things all organized and super-functional in there and now I’m so glad we took this project on even thought it took just a leeeeeetle longer than I thought it would.So here’s how the room looked before we started this project.. Ummm, yeah.

That was my bedroom.. Our master bedroom was built an as addition so it’s in its own wing off to one side of our house.

It has a hallway off the back that leads out to a deck, with our  ensuite bathroom right off the hall..About a month later and I had a fern again!.

Oh, and that pot?You want to know about that pot?

You mean the awesome crackly, aged, rope-edged work of art there?Yeah, I saw you eyeing that up.. Well, it’s actually so aged that it’s in three pieces, with the potted fern sitting inside.
