I've been soooooo lazy

Over a month ago, my bff came to play and noticed all my oil-brushed bronze doorknobs.  She asked if I had really replaced all the doorknobs.  The short answer - no.  I then quickly promised to post the tutorial to my blog in the coming week.

Well like I said, it's been a month which means.

1. It's been far to long since I've seen her

2. I've been so lazy I couldn't even post a project I already completed.

Oh well, they call it the lazy days of summer and I'm eating it up. 

For those of you that hate the ugly contractors brass doorknobs here's my solution.

It only cost me around $5, as opposed to $10/door

1. Find a well ventilated, clean area to spray paint.
2. Disassemble each door knob (how-to based on the type of knobs)
3. Line up all "fronts" of knobs as well as screws

4. Use something to hold the "backs" of each knob (they have a spindle that connects the 2 pieces - I used an old cardboard box)

Spray paint, dry, spray paint, dry

Re-assemble
ENJOY!

I hope this helps!

This week I tackle...

Hello Again.

I have lots to tell you.

Life has had me going 1,000 miles an hour - & I'm rather enjoying it.

This week I want to tell you about:

New Doorknobs
New Dog
New Office
Next Project

Whew!

In the meantime, I'm going to head back to my full-time job (buy some software folks!) and tackle the next project: Master Bedroom!

I'm attempting to finish everything EXCEPT the headboard and flooring which should be no problem since it's not like I'm working on commission, attempting to train a 10 month old puppy, praying I magically get thin and grow long luscious hair, or simply trying to keep my standard "I'm absolutely crazy" worrying at bay.

My crazy, busy life is fun!  I don't think I'd like it nearly as much if it was "relaxed, lazy, and comfortable."  Where's the fun in that?
