Now that the baby cat is out of the bag, I have been very busy on my friend Pinterest checking out awesome baby things. We haven’t gotten too far with anything yet, but what I do know is that nursery decorating FEELS harder than normal decorating.  I want the nursery to be cute (since I’m guessing...

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

Sorry to leave you all high and dry, I know how much it stinks to read a blog and then all of a sudden they disappear…where have I been?  Well…mostly asleep.  Why?

Yep, that’s right…Baby P will be due November 3rd!  I’m right around 15 weeks now and finally getting some energy back, so...

Peel and Stick

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

Haven’t done a laundry room update in awhile, so I thought it was probably time!

We tackled the floor last weekend!  Wooooo Hooooo!

(Also I may have discovered Instagram and forgot to take this picture with my real camera too…)

Unexpected Spring In Our Step

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

This post was planned (in my head) to have a lot different title…alternate titles — how to clean up a flood in your basement from a frozen sprinkler line or how to dig up your whole yard to find broken sprinkler pipe…but in a SHOCKING turn of events, we turned on our sprinklers for the first time...

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

A long time ago, Young House Love gave away a wireless thermostat.  I was incredibly intrigued and started researching the heck out of the Filtrete Wireless Thermostat.  I have an obsession with any household item that can be controlled with my phone, so I was  sold.  It has a few dings against it in the reviews for ea...

Laundry Room Report

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

We’re making progress…we’re at the slow part because each coat of dry wall mud needs to dry 24 hours before it can be sanded and recoated and we have put a LOT of mud on the wall to get everything all even and squared away…we’re in the home stretch on that, so you know what that means!...

The Olive Office

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

Our office needed some paint and I needed something to do to amuse myself while Steve worked on mudding the laundry room.  A match made in painting heaven.  I quickly selected on an olive green tone from True Value my paint book and set off to Lowe’s.  I can’t remember the exact hue and I lost the swatch s...

Fancy a Coffee?

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

For Christmas, we gifted ourselves a Keurig.  I am not a coffee drinker and Steve lives on the stuff, so I assumed we were pretty much getting it for him…but then I discovered the world of Keurig cider, cocoa, and tea!  So now I love our Keurig too.  What I did not love about ol’ K is the amount of counter...

Sketch It Up

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

We’ve been plotting and scheming our grand master plan for the laundry room.  We had some ideas floating around but with our clean slate, we needed a way to visualize our plans.  We sketched out some ideas, heck, I even drew what I was thinking on the wall…about that time we realized we were being i...
