    tip 2

     

    december 2011 042 1

    Remember how I was going to start sharing tips more often…back in November?? Yea, well here’s #2…four months later.

    bear with me! Have you removed the doors and gone with baskets anywhere? I kinda like the warmth and texture it adds next to the sleek, cool dishwasher.

    more master bath questions

    06 March 2012

    Some more follow-up questions on the master bath:

    How did you paint your vanity?

    If you want a full, lengthy explanation you can see my post on how to paint kitchen cabinets here.

    february 2012 037

    Basically, this is how it goes:
    1. clean & sand it down~this will increase paint adhesion. It doesn’t have to be bare wood, enough to remove most of the outer finish. I like to use liquid sandpaper for the base cabinet.
    2. apply 2 coats of Zinsser primer, sanding in between with a fine sanding block.

    cinnamon roll cake

    01 March 2012

    This is a favorite…I made this last night for a scout court of honor and finally took some pics. I have the best intentions of posting more recipes, but then I forget to take pictures.

    I got this recipe from my friend, Buffy Madsen when we were first married and living in Logan, Utah.  I’ve seen another on pinterest, but this version has 1/2 cup less butter (we still thinks it’s delish..it already uses 1 cup!) and we make it in a cookie sheet/jelly roll pan to make it stretch further. The printable link is here..let’s hope it works?

    roller shade derby

    29 February 2012

    For the fabric covered roller shades in the master bath, I simply ironed my fabric,

    wait…YES. I ironed.

    One of the favorite stories in my family is when my aunt pulled out her ironing board and her daughter (I think in 1st or 2nd grade?) asked, “what’s that, mommy?” :) Anti-ironing runs strong in my family. We’re all about wrinkle free and throwing things in the dryer with a wet cloth.
