In my most recent blog post, I revealed that my husband and I finally bought a house.  To say that we have been busy making our house a home over the last two months is an understatement.  We fully dove in after we bought our house to create some "homemade happiness".  When we bought the house, we knew that there were a lot of things that we needed to update and (with the help from my parents, especially my dad) we would be able to handle lots of DIY projects.  We painted EVERYTHING in the house, well except for the ceilings and floors.  Besides the ceilings and floors, we painted all of the walls, trim, and cabinets.  This may not sound like much, but all of the painting took about a week to complete.  Many of the walls were a pale yellowish-tan, which is just not our style.  We wanted to update the walls to a light gray color.  We painted all of our walls "repose gray" from the Sherwin Williams collection.

We feel like the kitchen is finally complete and we have truly created some "homemade happiness"!  We still have some more projects to tackle and I hope to blog about them soon.   We feel so grateful and blessed to be able to call our house a home!  I hope that we can inspire you to tackle your own DIY project!

Forever Yung,
Kyra
