Updating the Cloffice
Last fall during the Roomspiration Party, I hosted the Closet and Nooks portion and I revealed my cloffice in the new house but it was never quite finished.

Laundry Room Makeover – Complete!

Yesterday I shared some of my kitchen dreaming and scheming with you. After posting the hubby said I could paint all the cabinets gray. What?!?!
