Weekend Recap!

The End.... JUST KIDDING! 

Ya'll, this weekend was one for the books. We were able to get so much done since Seth's work schedule cooperated and his Dad was able to come and help as well. The counter tops were delivered and installed, the granite closet island slab was delivered and installed, we painted more trim and benches for kitchen, painted over the yucky paneling in the master closet, finished grout in laundry room ceramic tiles AND wallpapered the kitchen bath with the blue/grey toile. We also ordered our living room furniture and hired someone to lower the gigantic mantel in the living room so that we can mount the TV eventually (so living room may be starting to get in the mix here shortly. I have ADD and jump from room to room while honey brings me back to finishing one project at a time haha)

The weather was beautiful (thank goodness) but I think the roof is delaying completion since it is supposed to rain through Wednesday here (boo!) but hopefully the end of the week will be nice. I took a ton of pictures so this will be a little picture heavy but here it is, the newest edition of weekend recap in the Otey household. Hope you all have a great Monday and rest of the week! Thanks for stopping by and following along!

Yay for counter tops! LOVE them!





Laying the backsplash beside the counters made it easy to envision how it would look and I think it'll look great (goodbye old yellow paste..yuck!)



Master closet island is almost complete, needs ply wood sides and hardware now!


Painting the paneling white for now!



Cutting the last tiles for the laundry room

Letting the grout dry

FINISHED! Time to put washer/dryer in!
Just painting tables and benches...you know...haha



Wine themed toile!! haha Love it!



Almost there!!

I'm sooooo impressed though! Everything is looking awesome! And I still just want to live in your master closet! XOXO!
