About Me

Everyone has a grandmother. A Na-Na, a Mi-Mi, G-ma, Gran-MawMaw, a Pocky, and even a Mamaw. As girls growing up, our creativity was highly influenced by our Mamaw. So all the things we create, obsess over, construct, or do comes from her. Hope you enjoy looking as much as we like doing. This blog is a combined creation of us as sisters, with our Mamaw's Influence.

New Kitchen Cabinets



I decided on Christmas Eve eve (the 23rd) that my kitchen wasn't big enough. SO I decided to visit my local home improvement store and buy a 5' pre-fab cabinet.

The only problem was it wasn't the right color and the counter top had to be customized...like the rest of the castle kitchen. So my creative mind went to work.

This was the frame the counter top sat on...it's not
your typical counter-top.

Here's the counter-top screwed together and mounted to
the frame to attach it.

I had to measure the length to cut the 2x8s

tools of the trade...



finished staining and all the modern day equipment in place


Had to "disguise" the controls for the central air/heat....
I just live in a home-like-castle...I have all the
comforts of modern day
technology!!

the rest of my castle  ;o)
