Surprise, surprise – this month’s latest obsessions are mostly house obsessed, as I’ve got my eyes on the next prize and the projects just seem to keep getting bigger and bigger. Beyond the house project bug, weekend getaways and trips or seasonal parties also have me heart-eyed with excitement.
Basement Projects. This is a two part. Part one has been talked about off and on with B, but seriously discussions and planning have started to take place to build out a full-bathroom. A good friend is a plumber, so with his expertise and help it doesn’t seem so daunting, yay! Plus, it will add value to our home, making it 2-baths vs. 1-bath. Part two, is making the other space a bit more livable – we have a decent amount of space for storage, so the configuring has been playing out in my head and I think we can make it work. The livable space might just be a bit industrial chic vs. completely finished basement. I love this article for some inspiration on finishing touches for your unfinished basement.
Seasonal Parties. I can’t help but get excited for upcoming season parties, whether we’ll be hosting or attending – from the calm bake, to dare I say it…. Christmas?! Yup! I’m just looking forward to creating new memories and fun with family and friends. And the only reason I have these on my mind, is because schedules get so crazy – we have to plan that far ahead especially if we want any chance of getting on our family/friends schedules!
Getaways. Whether it’s a quick two-hour drive or a flight across the country, the travel bug continues and I’m excited to get out of town for a bit in the coming months. With that, I can’t help but want to find the best brunch spots, shop for a few new outfits, and figure out other fun details to weave into the trip. I’m trying not to wish these to come too soon though, because time has certainly been flying lately!
What’ve you been obsessing over? New house project or fashion trend – leave a comment, I want to know!
