A Big Project at the Cottage!...

Well hello cute people...it's been awhile!

I took a small break from blogging but now I'm back to my regularly scheduled program:)

Can you see the reason for my little bloggy break in the above photo?...

YEP!

We have been painting at my little cottage!

So far we have the kitchen walls painted....

when I say "we"...I mean Mr. Honey and I.

Kassidy and Sterling have been helping out too which makes it a family project...a big one!

The walls above the beadboard have been butter yellow for 9 years and now they are aqua!

We are installing wood flooring

throughout the house...

and so I decided it was time for a change all around and that the perfect time to do it would be during the long winter months ahead.

The cupboards, doors, beadboard and trim have been white for 9 years too and are still in great shape ...but while we were at it it...we put a fresh coat on them too.

I'm letting the paint cure for a few days before putting the handles and knobs back on. 

I'm also repainting each piece of

furniture in the kitchen...

this is my vintage little girl's cupboard

now painted yellow.

It used to be a jadeite green.

 I love my little cupboard...

I bought it years ago while thrifting

and have always kept it in my kitchen.

When the kids were little I kept playdough, crayons, coloring books, paper,

colored pencils and art supplies in it

so they could sit up to the table and be creative while I was in the kitchen.

Now I keep my baking supplies inside:)  

I'll show you what it looks like inside when I put everything back together!

I hope you had a lovely Christmas...we did!

I did take some time to do a

little bit of sewing for gifts...

I took plenty of pictures and I will show you everything I made in my upcoming posts.

It's good to be back...I have missed you!
