The motivation to get things crossed off the house to do list is back, so I’ve made the most of it and retrieved the paint brushes from the shed!
I have a master to do list, pictured below, and all this work needs completing before the house goes on the market in early 2012; that may seem like a while away however I’m amazed at just how quickly this year is going, so I’m trying not to delay anymore.
{This to do list and project book might give you an insight into the mind of a habitual list maker..lol}
One thing I’m trying to do is to fully complete a room {apart from a new window if it needs it} before I move onto another one; I have a bad habit of leaving a little snagging item. I’ve also bought some fabric to try my hand at making some simple curtains; I’m hoping that it’s not too difficult!
I’d love to hear what you’re doing around the house at the moment, has the warm weather made you want to decorate? I know Emily her family are working on a new Master bedroom, which is going to look beautiful.

Oh so much! I just bought my first house (just just, I got the keys last Friday!) Fortunately it doesn’t need *much* doing beyond painting it which we started today. I always forget just how loooong it takes to paint whole rooms (and this time a whole house!) especially when you are covering some particularly hideous blue/magnolia/pink border with pale cream paint…ack! Still it’ll be so fresh and clean when it’s done (I hope! That’s the goal anyway…)
The garden is well set up but overgrown, I think a bit of hard work hacking things back and pulling up weeds will be very needed but once it’s back under control it should be easy enough to keep under control…
I have curtains to make on my list too!
p.s. lists are for winners
