I Helped Build It Myself!!

Linking with Cindy at My Romantic Home today!

I've wanted to go to school for years now. The problem was I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up. Sounds strange ....I know. But my master plan was to get married....check. Have kids.......check 2 times. Then what??? I didn't think that far ahead. After daughter was in high school and the other was in second grade I thought about what I wanted. I decided I wanted to attend a vocational school! Wow, what a big step. Something just for me! Well, husband lost his job and plans got pushed back a year. Disappointing but what can you do? Began school the end of August. Finally, after an entire school year taking building & construction this is the finished result!!! Our class built a modular home on site at school! I've learned a lot at school!

The opening from the living room to the kitchen, pick your battles with your instructor! Counter didn't fit so we got a new one....very happy. Paint color, chose a different color then he picked something else...it turned out anyway. I loved doing the tile back splash! Thinking I can put one in my kitchen....eventually!
Big picture of the kitchen.............really like installing hardwood floors.


Installing a fireplace....easy!

I love the tray ceiling in the living room.........although I never want to do another one ever again!

Love the garden tub in the master bath.........tile is fun but messy!




Here is the house. I helped build the floors, walls, and roof.
I tell people all the time I've learned just enough to get myself in to trouble!!

Open House is today! I'm very proud of our hard work!!! Wish me luck!!
