After much patching, we painted. I also pulled out the ugly brown carpet and installed vinyl flooring. If I was ever asked "Chelsea, what kind of flooring do you recommend for a DIY install?" My answer would be: vinyl.
My husband, Peter, and I work well together. We cook, clean, travel, work around the house, and occasionally throw a party or two. We have a few gardens, five cats, a crazy chocolate lab, and an old home. We hang out with friends and family and both have our own geek moments. Hopefully different pieces of our lives end up on here and maybe you'll take away a recipe or two.

The Dining Room
Our dining room had such ugly wallpaper, like the rest of the house, and ugly carpeting, and popcorn ceilings. It was such a mess. But, now it's beautiful.

Painting Popcorn Ceilings
Two summers ago, we installed some window air conditioners. Yay for cool, dry air!
Did you know that when you install a window unit, it needs to be angled, ever-so-slightly so that it drains to the outside? Small, tiny detail. Super, duper important.
Ok, so water drained onto the wooden floor. It then dripped onto the ceiling in our dining room and then the ceiling looked like this.
