Today is
DIY day at
ASPTL so I thought I would show you some of our around the house projects, and say if we can do it so can you. We have learned by experience, and well worth it!

First is our tiled kitchen floor, and this was the real learning experience. I won't go into detail. The tile below is our garage room or the big room as we call it. It was our garage that we enclosed.

Hardwood floors that my husband and I put down in our living room, dining room, and hallway.

New bathroom faucet that he installed yesterday. I picked this up off the clearance table at
Lowes for 30.00. Had to purchase the drain kit to match for 20.00 but was still a bargain compared to the list price of $128!

The
Hollywood lights as I call them are gone, and replace with this Price
Pfister light fixture also a
Lowes bargain. I can't remember exactly what the list price was, but somewhere around $128 also. They had to take the display down for me, so they reduced the price a little more than previously, a bargain at $26! I know the striped wallpaper has to go, and that is on the
DIY list.

I almost forgot this is one of our biggest projects. We enclosed our garage, what is now the big room. My husband and I did all of the work with the exception of the
sheet rock finishing. We knew someone that was very reasonable and could finish is in a fraction of the time that it would take these two
amateurs. My husband installed two windows, a door , did all of the exterior framing and finish, and hung the
sheet rock. I know he is pretty amazing, at least I think so. For more
DIY head over to
Kimba's.Now check out yesterdays post to give me your ideas. I want to hear any and all. Have a wonderful day! Be blessed.
