The state of unfinishedness has been constant so I’ve picked up a few tricks for keeping my head on straight throughout the process along the way.

I love you, President’s Choice!The brass kick plate was already there and I love how weathered and rough it looks.

I couldn’t make it look any better if I tried.. Yup.We’ve still got that lovely peel ‘n stick tile in here.In everywhere, actually..

I just got these new lanterns and I love them.7 bucks each and they’re huge!

Chris and Kennedy found these giant seed pods out on one of their walks so we stuck them in with the gourds.

Lesson of the day: everything looks good if you stick it in a lantern.. Then I bought myself these mums and wrapped them in burlap.I see these people with great broccoli gardens and I think “Hey, why doesn’t my broccoli look like that?” And they.

have great broccoli, but maybe that’s.Maybe that’s the one thing they really really want and that’s all they grow.

So it’s darn pretty.But the thing is, I want more than just broccoli.
