HGTV... who needs 'em

A couple of years ago I promised my Tante Chris (Tante is Dutch for Aunt) that I would redo her yard. I FINALLY DID IT!!!!!

So, I've spent the last two Saturdays pulling weeds and transforming Tante's plain patio into a gorgeous garden! Take a look at some of the photos below. I wish I had pictures of the hard space before to show you the enormous weeds!

I can't imagine how much work goes into each show on HGTV for the full backyard/home transformation. The only thing missing now is a BBQ to complete the outdoor experience.

Now to find an apartment in SF that has the perfect patio in need of a face lift! Who knows what project I will take on next:)

Love,

Katie

Newest Edition

I promised that I would post the latest edition of my aproning... so here it is!

This is the Alexis apron

I really based the whole style around this button. It is possible to be obsessed with buttons. I am! Stay tuned for the Kelly apron (NOTE: this might be the last apron I sew prior to coming out of retirement, although, I keep saying that and somehow I keep finding new things to sew!).

My Sabbatical :)

I'm baaaaaack! Just wanted to share highlights from my temporary retirement, or shall we say Sabbatical.... Each one is made different from the other with lots of love, not skill:)

Amy


Vandria

Ginger

I have two more in the works, the Kelly and the Alexis, and can't wait to share them. Hopefully I will make time when I am working again to keep up my apron-making! I better:)
