Before I left for my workshop last week I applied a masking liquid to all of my 7️⃣2️⃣ window panes. I painted all of it the other day and today I removed the mask. OMG! Life changing (ok maybe just DIY life changing) and absolutely amazing. Go over to my stories to see it and tell me if you think it is as satisfying as I do🙌🏻 also, I may or may not have said “amazing” 10 times😊

You think you know what color this. But do you, really? Head over to see the votes and the actual color you have been asking about 🙌🏻 I made huge progress in the “library yesterday and it is feeling so good!! I’m in the home stretch now, and only have all of the little finish details to do. You saw my new sprayer which cut down my painting time by 60%. So worth it😊. I am hoping to be almost complete by the weekend. I say almost because I have to order 4 doors and they have to be shipped to me, painted and installed. 🤪 So hang in there with me!! #diy #diyblogger #buildlikeagirl #howtobuild #diybookcase #hgtv #hgtvmagazine

Today I am back in my painting clothes and painting in my backyard. A far cry from the beautiful venue I was at earlier in the week. I am challenged to finish this project in the next two weeks and overhaul the house before my family is home for Thanksgiving. Do you think I can do it?

You better believe I put this baby to work! Where has this been all my life? I have done so many HUGE projects and I rolled and brushed them ALLLLLL. Anyone else??🙋🏼‍♀️ I finally decided to try a sprayer and O. M. G. I have died and gone to DIY heaven. It took me less than 20 minutes to put the final coat on the doors today. Yes, I said 20 minutes!🙌🏻 Did you see my stories today? Check out what happened when it arrived!!
