I know I've shown romantic bedrooms, but here's a more masculine room.

366 Days in a Year
I am a procrastinator by nature. I am constantly putting stuff off for another day. Leap year is like someone saying "Kristin, Here's an extra day. Don't blow it!" I am going to use my extra day to work on things I am always putting off. I am going to work on finishing my will, printing off the 200 pictures on my camera and I'm going to workout. What are you going to do with your extra day?
Farmhouse Finds: Bath
When my husband and I were house shopping, most of the houses in our price range had one lonely bathroom. Wait...I should be honest. The good houses had one lonely bathroom. We actually looked at a house that literally had a sink in a closet that they considered a bathroom. I still shudder when I think about it. Our house has three bathrooms which made us feel filthy rich. However, we are not filthy rich and do not have a housekeeping service to clean those three bathrooms. That's alright. When it is time to clean, I just think about that sink in the closet and I feel better. Here are some finds for today's farmhouse bath.

Crate and Barrel Outdoor Sofa
Summers are very hot and sticky in Wisconsin and we don't have air conditioning. We survive by swimming in the pool, eating a lot of popsicles and occasionally treating ourselves to an afternoon at the local cinema. I would love to have a big covered porch with a ceiling fan and comfortable furniture. We could sit outside and enjoy the breeze while sipping lemonade and putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Pure bliss. This is the sofa I want on that porch. Throw in some of the bright-colored cushions and I'm a happy girl. Head over here to check them out.
