Home Improvement

Posted in: General

We closed on our new house yesterday. Today we bought a ladder, a step stool, 60 new cabinet drawer pulls/knobs and started making the place our own. Tomorrow we’re replacing door knobs. Out with the gold/brass, in with the silver.

Also, I couldn’t resist buying the coolest exacto knife I’d ever seen.

I think we’ve picked out paint colors too, which has been kind of a tough decision. We’ve decided to keep the light wood trim so we’re going with slightly darker walls than we had initially planned.

Busy, busy. :)
