I figured it was high time I looked at this 2014 house list I came up with.
man, I was ambitious.
to be honest, a lot of this just isn’t going to happen.
finances are tight, time is fleeting, and my body is a little broken right now.
BUT it is good to see what I can accomplish with a little budgeting and elbow grease.
I also need to do some posts to update on the little progress I have made.

as I’ve said – not very much has been completed with home renovations this year.
it happens – and I’m not going to cry over it.
I have some plans for the back patio for the fall (I’ve talked about how I want to use it) that I’m excited to start working on (you know when it isn’t 100+ outside!). there are also some other things that I can cross of the list with small effort.
so three cheers to being motivated!

    List keeping is an awesome way to stay motivated. This is inspiring to me… I plan to move out (finally) in the next couple months and I am *so* beyond excited to have a place to decorate! I'll be renting, but it'll still feel a lot different from being in my parents house. I'll likely be referring to your house posts for ideas since I love your style! Keep it up!

    This is an ambitious list! At least compared to me- I'm just hoping to get a painting hung in my apartment by the end of the year! haha! Good luck!
