Project 1 - Moving a HUGE entertainment center we bought off of Craigslist.
I enlisted the help of my mother, sister, and husband to make this happen because there was no way that I could do it on my own. It was a great buy because it's made by Bombay Company and the whole thing is solid wood. It's a beautiful cherry color that will look great when we get all of the shelves filled and when Andrew gets to eventually buy his bigger and better TV.
Project 2 - Priming the walls and ceiling of the garage.
Our garage has drywall on the walls and ceiling, but didn't have any kind of primer or paint on it, so we decided that we wanted to put a coat of primer on it to help seal it and keep out any moisture. Besides, what doesn't look better with a good coat of white paint or primer?

Project 3 - Brightening up the front porch with our kissing Dutch people and a hanging flowerpot.
Back when we were still looking at houses, I found cement kissing Dutch people on Craigslist, bought them, and repainted them so that we could put them somewhere in front of our new house, whenever we managed to get one. So this weekend, we were finally able to put them out on the front porch and they look great! We added a cute purple hanging flowerpot that we bought at Meijer and some flowers that we planted this afternoon and the porch looks much brighter and happier than it did this morning!

Project 4 - Redoing the flower bed by the light post.
Our last project this weekend was redoing one of the flower beds. First we removed the ugly edging the former owners had. They we changed the shape from a square to a circle to make it easier to mow around. We used some of the small river rock that is in most of the other flower beds as a new edging and added some flowers! I think it looks so much better!
