I’m sure most would agree that Halloween is a fun time for kids as they get to dress up and eat lots of candy! It’s the one time of year I allowed my children to eat all the candy they wanted. I am not going to say we didn’t have a couple of belly aches the next day, but it was so worth it. I just kept thinking it would teach them a lesson, but I guess I guess not. They continued to do the same thing every year.
A common question that comes up when talking about paint is what color to paint the ceiling. For many years people didn’t sway from the “normal” white ceiling paint. This was the safe look and people didn’t think otherwise. Now, with so many options out there, painting ceilings just a “normal” white has become a thing of the past.
It’s no secret that we kinda like porch swings. I think every porch needs a swing to enjoy and relax on. We have had some type of swing at most every home we have ever lived in, and we know that has been a few. There is just something about a swing that takes me back to when I was younger sitting on my grandmothers porch. I have fond family memories of swinging and relaxing on the back porch. I can’t imagine having a house without one!
You may be surprised to know that green is a very powerful color. It actually has been known to make an impact of many people’s behavior and decisions. The color green evokes a feeling of abundance and is associated with peace, rest, and security. Crazy enough, people are sometimes invited into a “green room” while waiting to go on camera. So, who could argue that green isn’t a great color to add somewhere into your home.
For the past few weeks, we have been working on a project for the soon to be owner of our current farmhouse. They have twin girls that will be sharing a room upstairs where our daughter’s room currently is. The project was built in bunk beds for these sweet girls. Of course we are always up for a project and we knew this would be a fun one and one that would make the room super special. This room will be a place where many memories will be made while they bunk together for the next several years as they grow up.
