The Spic N Span journey begins

with the utility room. The utility room? I know what your thinking "Staci, we really want to see pictures of the HOUSE, but is the utility room that important?" Well, to me it is. Mainly because I've had boxes and boxes of stuff sitting around with no place to go until CJ built these wonderful shelves in my utility room. YEAH!


Now, on to the kitchen: BEFORE

AFTER

BEFORE

AFTER


See the fabulous woodwork on the backside of the cabinets? We ordered those cabinets unfinished because our origional plan was to lay a rock wall up the back side of those (which was CJ's idea and I thought it would look awesome), but in the interest of shaving off many more hours of labor intensive work this is what we have. Isn't it beautiful? It is the idea and handywork of my brother-in-law, Brian. Way to go Brian!
Well, I'm off to try and clean the living room and then maybe you'll get pics of it too. I'm on a completely finish one room before I move on to the next mission. Wish me luck.

Hey, Staci!

Your home is beautiful! WOW!!! I can totally relate to the excitement of shelves. One year after being in this house, your Uncle Miguel hung shelves in the pantry, utility area, and the hall closet, and the shelves were level. (I know, because I checked! I am so evil...) So, one room at a time means you are completely "done" with the utility room, and the kitchen? You go, girl! Great job! Good luck with the rest of the house! I look forward to seeing more pics!

Love & hugs to you and your sweet family!

your favorite aunt,
