The real scoop on open shelving

Authors: Kim@NewlyWoodwards

I get a lot of questions about whether I like our open shelves in the kitchen.

I wanted to try open shelves in this house to see how I liked them. Since we planned to move in a few years, it was very low commitment.

I did … March 2013

Authors: Kim@NewlyWoodwards

This was a good, crazy, fun and busy month in the Woodward household. And I have to say, I’m really liking this new goals format for 2013.
