Under Construction

I just realized that I haven't blogged in almost two weeks!  Yikes!  I admire those of you out there who seem to be able to manage frequent, sometimes daily blog posts!  I just find myself busy and forgetful!  This time I've just been pretty busy....

I have been living under construction.

What started out as simply repainting 

a few rooms before we get new carpets ...

Has turned into a minor remodel

where we have been knocking down walls...

And trying to decide what sort of trimwork to use.

We plan on beefing up the baseboards, and

I want to trim the openings out in 

something like this or this. 

My husband wants to trim them out

in something real fancy using

something more like this.

While I like fancy capitals, I"m not sure

they feel appropriate in this house.

I like the simpler, cleaner lines of what I chose.

 I hope my choices win out in the end!

{fingers crossed!}

We shall see I guess!

Only time will tell . . .
