Glad you had a nice, relaxing weekend. My husband and I had our 12th anniversary Saturday, so he took the weekend off of work. It's been really nice to have him home.

Love your blog!!! So many neat ideas & links! I'm happy I found your door post...I have many hollow core doors in our upstairs (house built in 1991) orangy brownish doors! yuck! Anyway, I need to just get aggressive & tackle the project~ I've been delaying because there are 7 (not including closets) that badly need it! Glad I found your blog! And I love taking one of my girls along w/ me antiquing/thrifting...I love to see them get excited about the treasures they find for our home!
Take Care!
