As of next week, Andrew will be occupied for a few week with some training for work which means time for me to work on some projects. I have been building up quite a list knowing he had training coming up in May. Most of my projects involve things I have found on Pinterest, of course, and a few things around the house I have been meaning to do for a while but haven't gotten around to. In the whirlwind that was/is listing the house and house hunting things have been a little busy and projects have been put on the back burner. But have no fear, spring is here which means so is project season.
On my outdoor project list is getting my annuals put in pots. My grandmother always said not to do it until after Mother's Day, so that is the advice we stick with in my family. So, flowers wont be happening this week or weekend, but I will be collecting supplies. Here are a couple of the projects I will be working on:
I am pretty excited about this herb garden tower idea.
Better than your average flower pot! I'm adding some design
Not sure what color to paint these yet... something bright!
This project has been on my list for a while.
I really would like a larget water feature, but until we can decide where one might go, I can settle for this.
A trumpet vine, perhaps? We already have the planted, so I would just need to do the trellis part.
As if the outdoor projects weren't enough, there are a few things I want to get done inside as well. The bookshelf that I converted into my coffee center is in need of a paint job. It is currently a baby blue color and doesn't really match with the red and black we have going on in the kitchen.
Also, our front porch is wood paneling, and I have wanted to paint it for a while. Tonight while cruising pinterest, I found a way to fill in the lines so you create a smooth surface to paint and it looks like drywall.
This project sounds like it will take a few days, so I might want to get an early start on that. In addition to these projects, we also have several people coming to do quotes on all kinds of work on the house in the coming weeks. More on that later.
