I'm back... Here is the latest and greatest inspiration that I want to share with you from my recent renovation to our mobilehome. As you know we installed a wood burning stove but I wanted an appealing way to store the wood during the winter months.
Here is the inspirational piece -
And this is what I came up with using a Expedit Bookshelf from Ikea -
Once winter is over I can fill up with more family photos or my artwork.
Well, today the wood stove was installed and I'm so in love with how it turned out. Now I get to shop for new fireplace accessories. My contractor did a wonderful job in constructing the hearth and the installers said it made their job so easy.
Here is a pic of the rugs I got for all three rooms and I want to thank my sister for suggesting to get all three the same.
This picture says it all.
On Wednesday the demo started, I was so excited.
The crew took out the corner fireplace and I was amaze how much room was behind that wall. A wood burning stove will be installed next week so that is why the chimney pipe is still there.
Well today I came home and the walls and ceiling were painted in both rooms (family and dining). The laminate flooring layed and hearth for wood stove should be build on Monday. Hopefully, I can get a piece of granite just like I got in the kitchen to put on the half wall shelf (green with phone on it).
Here is a magnetic board I created out of an extra picture frame, sheet metal (flashing) and fabric. This will be the future home for hooks to hold our car keys. Will be making another for the art studio.
Well, I can't wait any longer to show off my new kitchen. The appliances are installed and the backsplash is up. All is left is the installation of the drawer and door pulls.

My Kitchen
My near future plans is to purchase a stainless steel microwave and place it on the counter near the refrigerator.
As soon as I get everything unpacked for the studio, I will be uploading pictures.
85% complete awaiting the appliance and hood. Hopefully, I will get all my supplies put away in the studio so I can share My Room.
Just trying to show the kids what life was like for me not too long ago.
Break time now back to work.
Backsplash goes up except for hood area.
Wall of storage (I love it).
Well, I must say that I'm at the 75% mark of completion. Just waiting on the stain to dry on the new door to the studio. The replacement cabinet, granite and appliance should be here next week than I will be finish this project.
