This past weekend we made great progress on some of our projects on our to-do list.
1) Tom completely removed the entire front door and side windows and framing, installed a new door, and custom built the side window parts and installed plexiglass there instead of just window glass. It looks amazing! He put a lot of detail into every part of this. I love it. The door is already painted, but the framing still needs paint so we have left the protective sheets on the side windows until that is done.

Here are some before and after pics of the painting. Bonnie's wall color is light lavendar.
4) The last project to tell you about... Our daughter, Kati (who you see painting the tree on the wall above), also enjoys making custom wreaths. You know how much you enjoy card making and scrapbooking? Well, that's how much she loves making wreaths. I asked her to please make us a Halloween wreath for our front door. Nothing scary. Just something festive and Halloween-ish. I love what she made, and it's HUGE! Here's a picture....
I hope all of you guys had a very fun and productive weekend too! Enjoy your week. Tomorrow is OCTOBER! My favorite month of the year. Kati's birthday is next Saturday and Tom's birthday is in October too. We are taking Bonnie to the South Carolina State Fair this month and then at the end of the month is our annual Halloween Party at Kati's house! Those parites are always a riot. I think Bonnie may dress up as an Indian this year. Maybe get her a wig with pigtail braids? Hmmm... we have plenty of time to think of something.

Wow it looks amazing!! I love your craft room color, front door, and the tree for Bonnie. Kati did a beautiful job on your wreath as well. Thanks for sharing your renovations with us.
WOW Janis!!! This all looks so awesome!!! Love the front door. So beautiful. And you crafty room is looking fab! And that tree of Bonnie's is the most wonderful of all!!! :)
Love all the renovations. Thanks for sharing all the before & after pictures. I especially like Bonnie's tree; can't wait to see how you decorate it. =)
I am loving your renovations with the before and after pics! You guys are doing a lovely job with it!!! I know it is a lot of hard work but will be worth it when it is all done. I also love the tree that your daughter is painting, can't wait to see it all decorated up!! I also love, love your wreath your daughter made, she is very talented it looks!
Janis, the renovations are great. Love Bonnie's room. My guest bedroom is the same color with eggshell on the moldings and doors. The tree is a great idea. BTW, love the green that you painted in the family area (on another post). Things are really coming together.
Blessings,
Belinda
