Labor Day Weekend -- DIY Project

Posted by Mary Grace (MGD) on Saturday, September 11, 2010.

Last week I watched Renovation Realities on DIY Network and saw a couple remodle their whole kitchen. Such a fun show to watch from demolition, tearing down to installing, wrking together, some fighting and blaming but in the end it comes together. Although I have seen some episodes where it doesn't really come together and they have to call in a professional.

Well, I told Dave that I wanted a new glass tile back-splash and after watching the show I had all confidenc ein him that he could do it. So we took a trip to Home Depot, picked out the glass tile and purchased all the materials....3 days later we have a brand new glass tile back splash!

Dave did a great job and I am so proud of him! We also changed up our hardware on the drawers to make it look more sleek and modern! On to the next episode on DIY to come up with a new project for Dave......what can I have Dave do now??
