The curtains are hemmed and hung. And the trim is going in, with less trouble after a bit of practice…

Hello blog that I’ve ignored for far too long.

I thought for a moment I would apologize, but I’ve been so productive that it doesn’t feel right.

What have I been up to? Crazy (really, truly insane) amounts of house renovation projects. Like installing lights.

With the exception of natural light and a dark lamp that sat in a dark corner, our living room previously hadno light. So this three-light drum is a big improvement!

I’m so excited to share more as things progress! See all that on the floor? It’s trim. Tonight we begin our second weekend of trim installation. Wish us lots of luck. You know we’re going to need it.

I visited Schoolhouse Electric this weekend, and like every other damn hipster that visits, I snapped a few with (you guessed it) the instagram app on my iPhone. 

Cory and I were looking for inspiration for the house, which is undergoing a lot of renovation. It was nice to take a break from a weekend of filing taxes and pulling out trim to grab a latte from the coffee shop in the front of the store (there’s a florist too!) and wander around looking at their beautifully designed goods.

I’d move into this store if I could. Well-built furniture, beautiful textiles, fresh flowers, and espresso… what more could a girl want?
