Project Pantry in Full Effect

Happy Friday!!! :)

Project pantry is in FULL swing. & I am so happy.. :) 

Now, yesterday, I posted these beautiful pictures of our Dinning Area check that out here..

Before: Lovely, I must say myself. lol

 but be very afraid of what it looks like now! lol I literally started this mess right after I finished taking those pictures..

Horrible right??? lmao

Well, we are working on project pantry.. So I had to clean it out to patch up the wall and paint, so we can work on the shelves.. 

Onto to Project Pantry....

 Pantry befores:

Not too shabby right??

Well, I can't STAND those wire shelves. The previous owners put them up pretty badly which is why this happen:

More about that here

Progress:

 The wire shelves are gone, and they will be replaced with wood! YAY!! :) Are you wonder what we are doing with the wire shelves? Well, we are selling them on Craigslist! Check them out here if you or you know someone who wants them! Just because I don't like them doesn't mean somebody else won't. Right?? ha But if these wonderful shelves don't sell, then we will put them up in our garage... Yeah, we are really big on recycling , so we will not send these to a waste land.. We will find use for them some where in casa Cheathams.

I want to replace this, but practical Sr. is not feeling that . I would like something maybe not so practical, but that will look amazing!! Who will win this battle? stay tuned. I have a good idea who will win.. ha

Can we say I had a busy busy week???  I got a lot completed & started like all of those big projects ( some I haven't even posted yet) like dinning room chairs, completed dinning area, & started project pantry, plus a whole BUNCH of small projects like Spring wreath, Chalkboard labels, Peter , organzing files on computer, and I did a lot of  blogging, household chores and shopping. Plus, I got a good bit ( depends on what you call a good bit) of my Spring cleaning done ( which should have been done, but c'mon I'm on only human or am I?? LOL) ...And people think housewives do nothing all day.

 I did all of this with a not soo interested crying soon to be 5 month year old...Yep, I think I'm superwoman..

This weekend
Not only will we be working on Project Pantry, we will have to do lawn work.... When will we sleep?? lol

Can we get a baby sitter?? :)

Spring Cleaning!

Spring beginnings on March 20th that is five days AWAY. Are you ready? Well, I am starting my spring cleaning list. I am trying to think smart about cleaning! I usually try to finish all of these task in one day which is a lot of stress & I end up driving myself crazy! I feel I might get more of a sense of accomplishment if I spread it out to four days instead of craming it all into to one day.

I got a lot of ideas from the blog A Bowl Full of Lemons. She is AMAZING! She's like a cleaning expert! Check out here blog for some great tips to help you on your spring cleaning or any other cleaning for that matter..

My Spring Cleaning Items

1. Window Cleaner
2. spic & span
3. Ajax
4. Pledge Multi Surface
5. Fabuloso

Window cleaner : I  only use the great value brand. It works just as good as Windex.
Spic & Span: It leaves whatever I am cleaning smell like the area has just been clean. It smells so good.
Ajax: I usually use in the bathroom to clean the bathroom with.
Pledge Multi- Surface: I LOVE it is one of my favorite product. You can use it on pretty much any surface like granite, tile, wood or on electronics. The con is that it is kind of expensive for a little bottle.
Fabuloso: I use to mop and on counters, sink and some appliances. You have to have Fab to clean it really would leaves your house smelling like you just finished cleaning! We just brought Fab with oxy. I can't wait to try it!
