I Got The Backyard Blues!

Not again! The backyard is boring? No trees? *GASP!* Not even grass!

Okay, okay. Your scenario is probably not that bad. You may have grass, but no landscaping. Easy peasy, if your husband will do that sorta stuff for ya. Okay, what if you have this beautiful tree covered yard with grass and...but you want landscaping, NOW!

 

Okay, this doesn't look like the same house. Why? Because they re-did the back of the house too. If this is more of what you are hoping to accomplish ahem, I suggest finding a pro. (No Marsha I am not saying Tim cannot do this) 

Now, my mom is extremely bothered by shrubs! Do they bother you?

If shrubs or bushes bother you then GET RID OF THEM! Don't think twice about it. You won't miss them. Again, to make the house look fresher, the owner re-painted the house and added adorable handles to garage.

Does your backyard look like this?

Okay, simple grass, landscaping, molch, flower beds, paths, and some time will make your yard look better.

Remodeling the Kitchen

Okay, are you house shopping, and seeing all these dumpy kitchens? That plain light wood color, or dark wood. Old sinks, dishwasher, or refrigerators? Is it hard to picture your dumpy kitchen working? Probably.

Does your kitchen look like any of these?

 

Wait, stop! Don't be discouraged! Your kitchen only needs paint, (and maybe some new appliances) rearranged cabinets, and some decorations! Your kitchen could look like one of these!

Okay, just FYI, white is THE color to paint your cabinets! If you haven't already noticed! :)

Now for some before & afters!

 

 

 Do you have some inspiration? Or Ideas? I hope so!

Easy Gift Idea

Ok...What you'll need...


Recycable Bag-

• Stickers/Sharpie...whatever works best for you
• Tape
• Scissors
• Your Gift
• Tissue Paper
• A Car Trip to the dollar store/ Target/ Walmart / any party supply store.

Now, this is really a good idea! ( I Came Up With It!)

Alright. Put your present(s) in the bag you chose. Mine was pink. Now take your stickers/sharpie and make the design as you would like (I used white flower stickers and just cut half of some off like the flower on the bottom of the bag). Now slide your card in. Open the tissue paper...and ta-da! A Perfect Present! Now you spent a little more time on your friends present than just buying her/him a gift bag from the store! I hope this was helpful!
