Getting there....

Ok, it's improving. Here are the kitchen cabinets, minus the assortment of different knobs I'm going to put on them........ after I collect scrap knobs. (We still have the side of the bar to finish)


So I still have a few more boxes on the floor to sort, but this is a MAJOR improvement. I whittled down to 7 bins of fabric....from 18.
Well, this is the growing pile of craft/sewing/art supplies I am letting go of. It's like the last 13 years of traveling with this stuff, over 14 moves, all the spousal-irritation, is leaving with this stuff. VERY healing.
This is one of my favorite spots in the house, I think just because of the wall and my favorite studio cabinets I made in UT. I look forward to sitting down and doing my homework here....right next to the kids doing THEIR homework.

Overall......my dining area. Still a few more things to sort, walls to patch up, cabinet doors/art board to put up, furniture to repaint, you know, regular stuff. I feel really good about getting organized and gearing up for the next 6 years of school here. :)

There isn't a single thing I don't like about what you're doing with your house. It's wonderful--you sound so good. Way to go Tara--still inspiring!

Looks so cute. Wish you could come over and help me decorate my house- It is so not my thing. What are you going to school for- you are amazing, strong and brave. Bravo for you Tara!

I love you kitchen. You are so great at personalizing your home and making it fit your needs. You know, if you ever feel the urge to fly out to NC feel free to come fix up my house.
