I am a fan on facebook. I check my fb page often to see if there are any “HOT” deals that you were able to locate throughout the day.
We are hoping to finally finish a three-tiered fish pond that has been in the works for about four years. What started off as one small pond is now a huge pond that we can swim in… and a second larger pond with a third small pond between the two. We got a little carried away.
Oh golly, I have an endless list as well, since our house is a 100-year old converted stable—with some leaky plumbing! Fixing that is my priority right now.
I need to replace all the blinds in our rental house before we move out in a month because between my three year old and our cat, they are looking pretty shabby!
Oh, my, where do I start with our huge backyard…we need to landscape it, badly! It’s all grass except for two ash trees and 4 raised gardens that we installed from reclaimed wood last summer. We get sun most of the day and not much shade. My vision is pergola-style shade garden and hanging out areas around the perimeter that is lined with a rock/pebble walking path. A Mary garden, expanded patio/deck area, and some “secret garden” type paths with foliage and a pond-less water element are all in the master plan!
We have plans to put a fence around our yard. I can’t wait!

We need to do some landscaping, to clear out our backyard to plant grass seeds!
Our 110 year old house is in need of some serious love! We have a never ending to-do list, but we would love to paint, do some gardening and re-do our porch.
My spring project is painting all of my rooms…I am already taping in preparation!

We have numerous MAJOR remodels taking place this Spring. First order, an entire remodel of our 3rd floor, to turn into a full suite for our oldest son. Then we’ll be remodeling our main bath and kitchen as the warmer months progress.
My husband and I will start checking off the honey-do list we’ve compiled. We’ll probably start with the indoor and outdoor painting and a bit of front yard landscaping to brighten up the place!
I follow on facebook and email 🙂 I am going to finish painting our house! I have 3 rooms and a hall to fill with color!
My first spring project is planting and gardening. We just moved into our new place and we need some flowers to brighten our front yard 🙂
