abby: Office Update
http://abbyandadam.blogspot.com/2011/11/office-update.html
Tuesday, November 29, 2011. I've slowly been making some good progress on the office makeover that I started back in September! In early October I broke down and bought the desk I wanted from Overstock, it was a PAIN IN THE BUTT to put together, and blood, sweat, and tears were shed {literally} from Adam and I trying to put it together, but in the end, it really is perfect! We also finally got our TV we've had since last Christmas hung on the wall! And they are so perfect in our new office! They are so c...

http://abbyandadam.blogspot.com/2012/06/spray-painting-planters.html
Monday, June 25, 2012. I don't know what I would do without spray paint! I use it on pretty much everything. Last spring a good friend handed down to me some planters that she didn't want anymore with a topiary already planted in them. These planters were originally from Restoration Hardware. After : I also planted some petunias and alyssum}. All the rust is covered and the weathered spots are all gone! They look almost as good as new! This is what they look like today! The flowers have gone crazy! I rec...

Here is what I got:. IKEA Expedit Shelving Unit. Adam putting them together}. Adam starting to put his records on the shelves}. The only negative about the shelving is th...

abby: Master Bedroom Update
http://abbyandadam.blogspot.com/2011/02/master-bedroom-update.html
Tuesday, February 1, 2011. Well since we finished our bedroom makeover last spring I've done very little to change it since I love it so much, still! Our old room and makeover process can be viewed { here. 1 major thing that did get changed, which I had planned on changing, were the bedside lamps. I was always unhappy with what we had, but we had them so we used them. They just were the wrong look for the room. {and people on HGTV rate my space. Were quick to point out the flaws! I hate clicky clocks!

My sister and I were on a coffee run and I spotted this driving by a yard sale. I think I said "TURN AROUND! She is not a garage sale goer!
