Anyway, we were feeling festive this weekend and decided to get all of our Christmas decorations out and get the house ready.  I have been excited for Christmas for awhile now, it’s the first time we get to decorate our very own house!  Steve bought a Christmas tree 4 C...

Jacuzzi Ick

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

Our master bathroom came with a Jacuzzi tub…I’m not a big bath person and the state of our Jacuzzi did not make me too interested in “jumping in” to the world of baths.  Why?

It was gross….really really gross.  Hard water stains on the jets and who knows WHAT inside them.  We were p...

Magic Coils

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

When we getting ready to move here from St. Louis, we had 2 queen beds.  Sadly, our moving truck did not have room for one of the queen beds, so it got left behind (don’t worry, not in a landfill but gifted to a friend’s brother who was just starting out).  Since then, any guests we may have make use of o...

The Entry Way Facelift

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

Sunday was Steve and my 1 year anniversary (yay!) so we’re celebrating all this week (double yay!).  Our one rule is that our celebrations could not involve any house “stuff” because we are on vacation.  Well, late last week, our painters called.  See, we had them bid to paint our inside — En...

Halloween Treats

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

I mentioned yesterday that I had some treats up my sleeve as well.  Now, I know you know my views on cooking…if not, lets recap (cooking = no).  This does not, however, apply to baking.  I love to bake!  It was my manager’s birthday last week and I volunteered to bring the treats.  She loves chocolate and p...

Feelin’ a little batty

Authors: Elizabeth- DIY Theory

Good news!  This month’s craft night was a smashing success!

On the agenda?  A wreath for Halloween.  This is my first “holiday” in the house (other than Easter but I hadn’t lived here that long yet, so we didn’t have any decorations).  I have been pinning up a storm for some awesome...
