Frozen February 2014

We've had about a week of snow and frigid temperatures and four snow days. To prevent cabin fever, we've been working on a few projects.

And for the grand finale, we completed a little home makeover project. When we moved into our house about three years ago, this mural was painted on the wall in the entrance to our kitchen.

Last Sunday, I painted over the mural.

I found an idea for a wood plank wall on Pinterest. Ian headed to Home Depot with our brother-in-law to pick up the supplies we would need before the snow arrived. So on Snow Day #1, Ian cut the boards and I primed and painted them. On Snow Day #2, the boards went up on the wall and on Snow Day #3, the shelf and edging went up.

On Snow Day #4, we drove to Anthropologie on the Plaza to pick out hooks.
