The light





It's amazing how one small detail can completely change the feel of a room. Jen installed most of the glass/stone/metal mosaic backsplash strips in our kitchen and it really makes the place feel complete. We feel like we've finally turned a corner and can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Jen also installed a new chandelier in our dining space, it's still a work in progress but like the back splash it's one of those details that signals we're near completion. Hooray! The wood blinds in the background came with the house, we were considering changing them out for white blinds. The current blinds blend with the chandelier and dining space and also with the backsplash tile but we're undecided on how we feel about how it looks with the very dark color on the cabinets.

We've been spending most of our time working on the backyard. We're about half way done on the landscape and are excited to share photos soon.

  1. lovely! So far I like the shades, until I see the table, then I reserve the right to change my mind :) I don't hate the chandelier and the tile backsplash is beautiful!
