My sweet parents came up for this past weekend to help us with a handful of home improvement projects. We had a lot of fun with them (and the pups), and we accomplished a lot!
1: Dad installed a disposal
2: Guion replaced the hideous ceiling fan in the dining room with this giant paper lantern ($9 upgrade. Yeah, I’m going to brag about it)

3: Bought a mattress, and Dad and Guion built a platform bed for the guest room! With little bookshelves!

And I fed my houseplant addiction, which I also consider part of the home improvement processs. Lovely starlight ficus for the living room (so that the maidenhair fern can live in its desired shade elsewhere):
We also just had a great time hanging out, talking, walking the dogs, watching “House of Cards,” and laughing. How lucky to have such resourceful, fun parents.
Everything is looking lovely, Abby!
Your home is so beautiful!
Thanks so much!
Looks like a lot of very good planning went into a short time of really nice improvement ideas! Looking so lovely now. Malabanan Siphoning
