Lake House Memories with Family

 

 

This is Where Cousins Become Best Friends



The Start of Our DIY Built-In Entertainment Center

 

Drawing the design with measurements for a mission style look

 

Built the frame with shelves 

 

The walnut we used was from my Grandpa's Farm

Todd planed it into lumber

 

If all goes as planned (don't get too excited) I will be blogging the finished project at the end of next week!

 

Kreg Jig was used for the joints



Changing Seasons...simple decor switch

 

Changing the wreath to a fun sign  

 

 

 

 

Adding new throw pillows...for some fresh color

All of these great finds came from TJ Max's 40% off sale...They opened a new store including Home Goods!



Installing Our Triple French Doors

Installing Our Triple French Doors
Finally time to say goodbye to our 9ft exterior sliders and hello to these beauties!

 

 

 

These antique style hardware bolt into the floor and the frame

Out With the Old and in with the New

Door fitting I guess you could say...and now time to tailor them to fit...

Todd would much rather do masonry work than doors...They are right up their with drywall on his list of
Honey-Dos I don't like list.

 

We framed in one of the doors to make a sidelight, but to still keep the three door appearance

Stained the doors a dark walnut

Could not get a DIY project done without our crew 

Finished and I am loving how much larger our home feels with the sliders gone!
