remodeling frenzy has began!

goodbye pink wall paper and counter tiles!

It's so sad that everything's been taken apart. I think I will miss those ugly floral accents.

I was feeling nostalgic last night, I went through my parents remodeling pictures and I realized that I had forgotten what their house used to look like...

Anyway, here are some "before" pictures and day 1.

there really is no free lunch. Everything costs money.

nevertheless, i am really excited!

work has been so stressful. I am really looking forward to summer...mmm mango mojitos on a white sandy beach. Happy thoughts.

In the mean time, I have discovered the wonderful world of paper craft and scrapbooking. I have decided to do all invitations and save-the-dates myself so I've been buying paper samples and doing researches on embossing. I found a great scrapbook store at the corner of Stevens Creek and De Anza Blvd, in the same shopping plaza as Diddams- it's called Memories live on. Kind of a cheesy name eh? But they have amazing selections! I also came across this great website (www.createforless.com) for super savings on crafty supplies. Hopefully my DIY project will not end up being a hot mess, so stay tuned.
