Wishing everyone a happy Wednesday! It’s hump day! 🐪
We’ve been keeping busy over here.
First up, a little exterior trim repair. Water found its way into the original wood trim at the base of this post and caused it to rot. I removed all the damaged trim and replaced it with textured PVC, then gave it a fresh coat of paint. The best part? PVC won’t rot, so this repair should stand the test of time. It’ll still need the occasional paint touch-up, but no more worries about water damage.
Next was some electrical work. We hung this beautiful oversized light fixture. Mounting the fixture itself was pretty straightforward. Hanging the hundreds (and I mean hundreds 😂) of tiny shell-like discs? Not so much. It took some patience, but the finished look was worth every minute. We also swapped out a few bathroom fixtures for some more modern lighting to give the space a fresh updated feel.
Lastly, we added some cabinets to a laundry room. One of the easiest ways to make a space feel cleaner is to give all those detergents, cleaners, and miscellaneous items a place to hide. Out of sight, out of mind!
And of course… another shelf. I know, I know, you’re all shocked. 😆 This one included a metal dowel rod to match the existing closet hardware and create even more usable storage space. Around here, we’re big believers in making every inch count!
Hope everyone has a fantastic rest of the week!
