12 house to home goals

 the other day i was reading the nester's post on house goals.

i had never thought about house goals per say

 but i did have to do lists in my head of things that i would like to get done

 around the house to feather my nest.

as i walk around my house picking up and cleaning

i always hear that little voice saying "we need to" :

{notice how the little voice says we as in hubby and i}

1. paint the boy's bedrooms

update and add a little vintage items such as antique trucks
maybe new bedding too

especially number 2's room that still has a shelf that we used for his nursery

2. finally put up a gallery wall in my hallway

 like the ones that i have been drooling about on pinterest
 and add a new light fixture with more vintage character

3. change the light fixture in the mudroom

i really like this  moravian star pendant

4. add a new chandelier to the dining room

that one has been on my list for a while

 

5. organize my closet and finally try project 320

6. re-do my master bedroom

i still want to consult her

i am just recuperating from the lack of funds after the laundry room remodel

7. continue to work on making our backyard a beautiful retreat
adding more roses and a new water fountain

8. change the faucet in the boys bathroom 

 and have hubby build a new cabinet like this one

9. style the bookcases in the living room/dining room

hubby built these for me but i am stumped as to what i should put here

i can't seem to get it right

10. add more touches of vintage items to the living room

 i want to paint a sign like this one

11. infuse my home with more colorful accents

i love meg's use of color in her home.

12. create a craft room-sewing space in the laundry room

lastly, and more importantly, maintain a clean, organized, and functional home

that is a place of respite for our family.
