Ever since Christmas I have been absolutely addicted to DIY blogs and websites. I'm serious. If I'm not on Facebook, I'm looking up paint colors, light fixtures and trying to picture how those curtains would look in my bedroom. I know at this point I'm annoying Matt with my constant "I could totally do that..." Let me explain a few things before I go on. We live in a trailer. (manufactured home...whatever) so some of the things I would like to do are limited by shifting walls, a general lack of space and the fear that too much will literally cause the house to collapse. However, lately I have convinced myself that I can make whatever I want to do work in the area I have. I mean, people live comfortably in apartments half this size. I want us to enjoy our home and feel comfortable inviting people over. So my project this year is to make this place MINE. It's really time. We've been here 3 years now. Time to start fixing it up. So I have a few goals I'm setting for myself here.
1. Landscaping- I'm envious of my brother's patio. It looks like you've stepped into the secret garden. I want my yard to look like that. I want someone to walk up and be impressed with my greenery. Lol.
2. Paint- a budget friendly way to brighten and lighten lol
3. Find small space friendly storage options....
4. Declutter- we are one step away from a Hoarders Intervention.
5. Keep it clean - I am the worlds worst chore-doer lol
There's my goals. And here's a picture of my recent project which falls under #1: the front porch. It's not complete yet but it's getting there.
