The Move-a-Lots: Dining Room Preview
http://movealots.blogspot.com/2011/10/dining-room-preview.html
Saturday, October 1, 2011. Just a quick little post about the dining room. Currently, the table is being painted and I'm working on the gallery wall. Neither project is done enough for a whole post, but here's a preview:. Please note that a tarp never prevents me from spilling paint everywhere anyway. For some guidance. Still contemplating some type of top layer or plastic or glass or something, based on the concern of my friend, the Bashionista. Why must it be orange? To paint these frames, and get matc...

The Move-a-Lots: June 2011
http://movealots.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 26, 2011. Moving from city to city can be taxing, but each city brings with it design inspiration! Here's just a few things I've found that inspire me. This kitchen makes me want to cook. This (above) is Julia Child's kitchen, current on exhibit at the Smithsonian (you may have seen Amy Adams go visit in in Julie and Julia). I love the green, love the layout, and love love love the hanging pots. A good tip for anyone. Earhart was a browncoat! But it looks like Amelia was perhaps just forward...

The Move-a-Lots: Where We Are
http://movealots.blogspot.com/p/where-were-at.html
Where we are now. Dismantled the heavy old dark wood table and used a small kitchen table instead. Painted that small kitchen table's top white. The table is smaller than we want for a real dining room table, but until we can agree on something, this will have to do! Work on gallery wall (in the process now). Remove stupid shelves that came with the place or find something to put on them. Put up our wine-racks (you know, the silver ones that EVERYONE has from IKEA). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Move-a-Lots: August 2011
http://movealots.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 8, 2011. As some of you might recall, I'm spending my first summer in DC.in Alabama. Where the military sends me, I shall go. However, I left strict instructions with Mr. Move-a-Lot to take care of everything while I was gone (dog, cats, house, car, baby.and my garden! So you can guess which one gets ignored (No, it's not the baby.). I returned for a 24 hour trip last weekend to find my lovely backyarden (It's kind of a back yard, kind of a garden,. Do you see what I did there? Now, if onl...

The Move-a-Lots: September 2011
http://movealots.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 14, 2011. Big ideas, little room. Don't be scared, but the pictures of my dining room are pretty terrifying. You've been warned:. Fur Culprit named Joey - and why is there a plunger in my dining room? How many chairs can one small room hold? Here's some inspiration photos:. Source: simpledwellings.blogspot.com. Can it be done? Only time will well, so stay tuned. In the meantime, give out your thoughts on making this dining room something to enjoy! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Move-a-Lots: May 2011
http://movealots.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 27, 2011. Last Photo of Boston House. After many delays, we are actually going to leave Boston tomorrow and head to our new life/house/job in DC! Here's a quick photo of a room that was once a garish yellow. Now, white trim, walls, curtains, ceiling. What a room of possibility! It took all I had not to go in in the middle of the night and paint it or color on the walls or something. Go nuts in here, renters! Won't post again until we have internet access in DC - happy Memorial Day! But the ea...

Restaurant, but I love the idea of taking a regular picture, cutting out something basic and putting neat-o designed paper behind it. Simple te...

The Move-a-Lots: My New Fall Table!
http://movealots.blogspot.com/2011/10/my-new-fall-table.html
Wednesday, October 12, 2011. My New Fall Table! I really wish this post could discuss how fun and awesome it was to do this project, but, I gotta be real. It's me, I'm going to mess it up. So, here's how it went down. First, I decided to paint the top of the table white and leave the rest the natural wood color. Later, I would wish I had done the opposite, but only after I had already applied a layer of primer - too late, sucka! I got too excited. Following the great tutorial on Young House Love. I know ...

The Move-a-Lots: July 2011
http://movealots.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Greetings from the Dirty South: Alabama! I'm here for NINE WEEKS for an Air Force School, and while the temperatures outside might be enough to make you cry, the digs are pretty great. Here's my new pad. This is the little kitchen that comes with all the dishes you need, plus a stovetop and a fridge. I THINK there's a garbage disposal as well. The downside is no oven, which I find I use a lot of as I learn to cook, but that's ok. The single server coffee is pretty sweet. All the p...
