I wrote a post over summer about a beach sign I made as a gift, and last month I gave the sign an upgrade for it's trip to the ocean.
The gift was for 2014. The original post was in 2015.
I worried the gift would never make it to it's intended home on the California coast since it was still in my possession almost a year later.
I think I have mentioned before, that if I gift you with something you may not get it until months later. Daughter #1's laundry room makeover comes immediately to mind.
But this beach sign made it in less than a year, top speed for my normal.

#1 Son Monthly New House Update
The next monthly update on #1 sons house that I give you, will no doubt be the one where #1 son and his family no longer live across the driveway from us.
I have mixed feelings about that.
When they move I suppose a recent birthday girl will still notice all the black construction paper crows I place around the house like finding Where's Waldo.
Just not right away.

Zuri Pfister Faucet
Until 2010 Pfister Faucets were known as Price Pfister Faucets.
I have some Price Pfister faucets that are 15 years old and they look and work as good as the day they were installed.
The faucet selection on the Pfister website is vast, and Pfister has all the popular finishes.

Haunted Portraits
My absolute favorite Halloween project that I have made are Haunted Portraits that I spied from Tracy at CrowsFeetChic.
I re-post them every year at this time because I love them.
I've made two versions of these.

October Is For The Birds
Or live in Bodega Bay.
You know those black birds and ravens that you can pick up at the store this time of year?
They can be a little pricey unless your dollar store happens to have some.
Mine doesn't.
So what's a bird lover to do?

Fusion Mineral Paint
Ever hear of it?
I know many of you have because I get emails asking me about it every time I paint a project in a Fusion color.
So readers.... this post's for you.

Thrift Store Decor September
Sometimes I see something for cheap, that I have no desire to own, but gosh darnnit if that fifty cent price tag doesn't tempt me anyway.
Such is the case with this candlestick.

DIY Spindle Mattress
Isn't DIY the initialism for "do it yourself"?
So you want to know if there is such a thing as a DIY mattress, what is it, and why?
Well let the wise old owl just tell you.....

Rock And Roll Coochie Coo
When you forget someone isn't a 10 year old anymore it's strange when you realize they are now old enough to procreate.

Two Groovey Side Tables
Earlier this year I redid a garage sale coffee table that only a few months prior had been given a makeover.
That coffee table had two side table friends living in close proximity who also had been given a previous makeover, so then they needed to receive a makeover on top of a makeover.
Confused? Don't be.

Cucumber Salsa
Here I am doing it again... posting a recipe.
Yes I know they are few and far between, and if you've been reading here a while and paying attention, they are few and far between because I hate doing recipe posts.
I just like to do eating posts.
For all I know everyone else in the world has seen cucumber salsa and this is old news.
I'd never heard of it till #1 daughter wrote the recipe down, handed it to me, and said "don't pay attention to the weird ingredients, just make it".

Building Update For #1 Son
Another summer has come and gone.
Kids are back in school and the evenings are a bit cooler.
We've had the neighbors I told you about a while back living across the yard now for four months. It makes me sad to think they won't be there next summer, but excited for them to move in to their new home.
When you're building a house and doing much of the finishing work yourself, each day sort of holds the same routine.
Get up, get the kids to school, go to work, come home, work on house. Repeat.
The weekends are particularly busy, you get to work on the house all day plus do all the stuff you needed to do during the week but didn't have time to get to.
Such is the life of #1 son and his wife right now.
But their house is starting to take on a personality, and some of the things that add their style are in place.
Tile is going up in the kids bathroom.
