Previously, here, I asked some questions to answer before you start a blog. I’ve got a few more things to think about if you want to start a blog. Let’s continue where we left off. 6. Do you like helping people? You need to be here to help others. I’ve seen some blogs that were started simply […]
We have walls
I thought you might want to hear about how it’s coming with our new city house, and here’s the latest. This is the back of the house. This is our new bedroom, much larger than our current one. And the photo above is our new kitchen. There’s going to be a wall of cabinets on […]
Antique Mirror
So I was cruising Craigslist the other day, and saw this amazing wood and gesso mirror, and the owner wasn’t asking that much considering it was a 40 inch wide mirror. It was made with gesso and wood; a century’s old technique no longer used. It’s just easier and much cheaper now to make frames […]
Feathering My New Nest
I know I told Mr. CH that I wouldn’t buy furniture for the new house, until we moved in. You know, like George on Seinfeld said, “It’s not a lie, if YOU believe it.” Yes, I believed it… really. But it turned out to be a lie. Well that seems like a harsh word, so […]

No-Sew Table Cover
I know, I know, many of you don’t sew, but guess what? This table cover doesn’t require sewing. I think it looks as good as many table covers that are sewn. Come a little closer and I’ll let you in on another secret. Shhhh, it’s a drop cloth, or did you already guess? You can […]
Tour De Paint
Yes I know you’ve heard of the Tour De France, but have you heard of the Tour De Paint? Well, if you haven’t, don’t worry, it’s just something I just made up. I need to pick out a paint color for our new house, so I decided to take a tour of the new neighborhood, […]
