I don’t know about you, but from time to time, with Pinterest, Instagram and all the amazing design shows out there, it can be a little overwhelming and feel like you will never be able to achieve the perfect home. But while those perfect houses that we are constantly bombarded with, might take us a […]
Cleaning Up Old Cinder Block
This summer we have been rather busy with the new house. I showed you the deck we built, or at least part of it, and I try to share updates on instagram (follow me @remodelaholic). BUT to make a VERY Long story short, I feel like we are just treading water actually maybe drowning is a […]
Carved Love Sign
A while ago, I tried to do the 31 days of posts thing and failed miserably (granted, I was doing it in addition to my regular everyday posting schedule…), but at least I introduced you to us and that was worth a shot. One of the things I talked about is that my dad is […]

Vegetable Garden Arbor DIY Plans
We love a good vegetable garden! We spent a lot of time getting the raised beds and concrete patio in place last year in our back yard!! You can see all our current backyard projects we’ve worked on here if you are interested. Now that all the main layout and structural elements of the yard are in place, […]
Spring Cleaning with Kids
It is that time of year… spring cleaning, I know you feel me! And somehow, you’ve got to whip your house into shape. But I am a BIG proponent of having your kids help! Where else are they going to learn if you don’t teach them how to clean. However, it can be hard to […]

I have two little projects to show you today. A simple little Valentine’s mantel, all decked out on the mantel we installed on our stone fireplace (basic instructions included, in case you want one and don’t know where to start)!!! But I also wanted to call attention to the fireplace… we decided to use it for an […]
2013 Remodelaholic In Review
Wow oh wow — am I the only one in disbelief that 2013 is coming to a close? In the spirit of New Year’s resolutions, I always think it’s fun to look back at what we HAVE done this year (instead of just what we intended to do… but didn’t). So, here’s a collection of […]
My Christmas Home Tour
After 12 days of working on Christmas projects and posts, I am happy to say my house is as done as it is gonna get for Christmas!!! Does that mean the whole house is decorated? Not on you life! But either way, I guess it is perfect timing that I am finishing up the […]
Merry and Bright Art; Day 10
It is funny how having kiddos around changes a holiday as we have seen it all our lives. Before if I didn’t want to decorate, I didn’t, or I did whatever pleased me the most. But with kids, the holidays become less selfish and more selfless… or at least for me. I want to do […]
Snowman Wreath Tutorial; Day 6
I decided that making a Christmas wreath would be a fun project for the 12 days projects. A wreath is something that really anybody can use, be it on a entry door, an interior door, a window or mirror… heck, you can wear it if you REALLY want to… I saw this cute duct tape […]
