Getting started is the hardest part, right?

On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I post a picture and just a few words.

Well, Joshua and I started.

We actually are going to get this bed painted and installed in his room this summer, I think.

"Well begun is half done."

My front door needs repainting. I need to figure out if I can do the job myself or not. I'm sure I'd hate the presumably high cost of hiring someone, but neitehr do I want my house without a front door for more than a single day. The idea of buying a second door to hang while I'm working on the good one, has crossed my mind.

Suggestions very welcome.

I've thought about painting my front door too and have run into the same issue. Do you work on it for a day, rehang it overnight, and then work on it some more the next day?

It's so hard for me to finish things! But we finally finished our latest project and posted it on my blog--a coffee table :)

Can't wait to see the finished product! Any tips on painting?

Any tips for efficiently stripping paint from round surfaces? I want to strip & repaint some chairs, and the backs are dowels (rather than something rectangular or a solid surface). I'm not looking forward to the time that'll take.

Yup! This is the method I always use when I paint furniture: https://www.thefrugalgirl.com/2009/03/how-to-paint-wooden-furniture/

I get so distracted! With me I can get started but then have to remember not to deviate.

For example I was typing up today's blog post about 'making time to declutter' when your post pinged through. Ended up reading yours instead! But did drop this link into mine! Really need to go back and hit publish.

I agree! Getting started is the hardest part of any project! But the feeling of accomplishment is so great, once it is complete!
