I watch HGTv at night when I can’t sleep. I love to watch them when they do kitchen makeovers. They use beautiful glass tiles for back splashes. I would love to be able to do the same thing. But, I live in a mobile home and you can’t do that. The [...]

Ugh, I swear, I always have the best intentions, but then something happens and I forget to post. I keep wanting to. I even open up my client window and start typing. But then I get distracted by something. Lately it’s been looking at different home improvement ideas. Our bathroom [...]

Title: Enjoy the Outdoors Without Being There

Who doesn’t enjoy sitting outside on a bright sunny day? Well, if you’re like millions of Americans you have allergies, and this time of year is nothing short of murder on your sinuses. Instead of hiding indoors unless you have to leave, you can still enjoy [...]

Okay, so I need to stop watching DIY and HGTV before bed! Why? I dream about weird home improvement projects when I do. For instance, I dreamt about having a home that I was remodeling, but it wasn’t mine. How do I know it wasn’t mine? I live in a mobile home, not [...]

Classic Construction builds decks in Richmond and their outstanding quality and affordable pricing make them the perfect candidate for your next home improvement project. They also offer sunrooms in Richmond that offer year-round comfort and value to your home. I came across them while looking for a dealer that offered siding in Richmond for [...]

While I was watching one of those home renovation shows the other day, I commented to my mother about the sinks that they chose and didn’t understand why anyone would choose an undermount sink. Personally, I would find it saver to have a top mount, but I know that it looks slicker with the [...]

Stress, Stress, Pressure Pressure! My word, I wish there was something I could do so that I wasn’t stressing like mad. There is just way too much going on right now and I’m such a bundle of stress. Seriously, I need the world to stop and let me off for five minutes, just [...]

Now that redesign Monday is done, I can go on about my normal business and continue to look at and dream about the things I’d like to do when I build my dream house. For instance, I want to have an entryway with beautiful chandeliers to light it.
If I could, I would have one [...]

Everyone who has a computer worries about the security of their network, their computer, their internet connection, but how many of us worry that much about home security? Everyone wants to think that where they live is safe, that they have nothing to worry about. They want to think that the police can [...]

I keep watching different home improvement type shows, shows where they fix up houses for sale and whatnot. One thing that I’ve noticed is that when they do a kitchen, they change the kitchen sinks 9 times out of 10. And it always makes a vast improvement to the kitchen. I don’t [...]

Everyone shops for furniture and has their own style. Some people like modern furniture, some people like prefer antique furniture. Everyone has their own taste and style, even so far as mixing modern and antique in the same area. It’s amazing how much different everyone’s homes can look. Next time you decorate your [...]

So, I keep watching all these home improvement shows on DIY and such. I keep seeing all these beautiful kitchens that they build and I wonder how much money really goes into them. Especially when they use granite for counter tops or Grohe faucets. I don’t know where they get the deals [...]

So along with the thoughts of a new kitchen sink, I’ve also had the idea of doing work in our bathroom. We have a flimsy double sink that is made of crap plastic, which we all know is crap. So why not look into new bathroom vanities to find something sturdier.We don’t need, [...]

We’re qualified to get an economic stimulus check in May, so that means money that I didn’t have, nor plan in the budget. So what can I do with that money? I’ve been thinking that we need a better kitchen sink. I’ve seen the Franke sinks and they’re rather nice without being [...]

One of the cool things about being able to build your own home is the ability to design your own House Plans. What could be better than that? Who wouldn’t want to live in a home that they planned themselves. But design services are expensive aren’t they? Then why not check out [...]

So many different home improvements I’d like to make. One of which is a change of water heaters. Currently, our water heater is housed in the bedroom closet. It’s loud, and annoying, plus it takes forever for the water to heat when you start to draw water.What I’d like to do is [...]

So there’s all this talk of an extra refund check coming in may. Personally, I won’t hold my breath waiting for it. I know what I’d use the money for, however, if it does come. We need to do some home improvements. We could use some floor work done, along with [...]
