Adding trim to our garage door.

April 5, 2013 by Michelle Hinckley |

Having had lived in two brand new homes before moving in to this 1970's rambler has been quite an adjustment.  When you live in a brand new home any changes you make are usually cosmetic decorating only.  When you move in to an older home, everything needs replacing and updating. 2 years ago this houses garage door looked like this.  As much as I would love to replace it there are other things like piano lessons, school lunch, baseball cleats, etc. that are taking precedence at the

Warm Weather = Time To Paint!

February 13, 2017 by Michelle Hinckley |

Thanks to global warming Salt Lake City got up to 68 degrees this past week. Crazy unusual. I wasted no time and got my hiney outside to work on projects. My friend found this huge board at Habitat For Humanity. It was so heavy it required two people to lift it.  My Mr. ripped it down the middle to create two boards.  The wood was weathered and in rough shape.  The more I sanded the more it started to flake of in chunks.  I decided to see if I could find a commercial mill to plane the

My dream house plus $500. to use towards new windows.

May 1, 2014 by Michelle Hinckley |

*This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Integrity Windows and Doors . All opinions are 100% mine.* The other day I was perusing one of my favorite neighborhoods and I ran smack in to my house soul mate.  This house ticks all my boxes. It's a modest house in an adorable neighborhood bursting with curb appeal (which probably costs a fortune due to the location).  It's sort of mix of traditional with a hint of modern.  And that door...gah! The gray blue is not a typical front door

New / old front house lights.

January 6, 2014 by Michelle Hinckley |

Happy new year, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and all the rest... Has it really been since Christmas that I last posted? Well, it was a good little break. Kids were home from school for the past 2 weeks and we spent some good old quality family time together doing a little playing, a little traveling, sharing a nasty cold, a little arguing, a little getting on each other's nerves...just normal family stuff. But now it's back to normal life. We've been making some fun progress on

Latex vs. oil.

April 29, 2013 by Michelle Hinckley |

You remember this little garage door makeover I recently posted? As I mentioned, this garage door is almost 35 years old.  It's heavier than an elephant, warped and cracking.  I'm all for making do when necessary but I'm really ready to throw in the towel and put this door to rest.  Speaking of garage doors, I've been using this cool new app by Garaga to browse for new doors.  Options later.  For now, I'm working on the shingles above the garage...my next headache.  Are you so sick of my

New house numbers project and a giveaway!

April 19, 2013 by Michelle Hinckley |

This week I've teamed up with Proctor & Gamble and The Home Depot to bring you a new project and giveaway opportunity.  At the first sign of 50 degree weather this year I wasted no time and headed outside to get a jump start on quite a few home projects that have been on my mind all winter.  The first was my garage door makeover where I painted trim and glued it up, then I cut some more trim and painted it up to make a frame for my magnetic board, and today I'm showing off my new house
