2011: A Year in Review

Happy New Year!!   2011 has brought a lot of success in so many ways!  Of course the greatest is little E that is now 3 and 1/2 months old.  Other successes were finishing up some long standing projects around the home and getting our house sold in a relatively quick manner.  Here are some Green Street 2011 highlights:




Before & After Kitchen Roman Shade


Before & After Kitchen Stool


RIT Dyed Lamp Shade


DIY Painted & Stenciled Ikea Rug


Before & After Kitchen



Before & After Patio


Before & After Hallway


DIY Greek Key Roman Shade


Before & After Renovated Bathroom


Before & After Dining Room


Before & After Sideboard




Make sure you click on the links to see the 'before'.  There are some huge transformations.

All of these projects were completed before Elizabeth was born in September and our house sold in October.  Phew! We accomplished a TON in 2011 and I look forward to a new adventure when we temporarily move to Vienna, Austria (leave this Tuesday).  

I hope you all have a wonderful New Year's Day and the next time you'll hear from me will be in Vienna!!   Bis dann....

  1. It was a very good year on Green Street! You had some really great transformations... None greater than the "transformation" of your family of three to a family of four! Wishing you the best of everything in Vienna and in 2012!!

  4. Fran, it has been so much fun to follow along with you as you've completed each of these projects. You are a woman of great taste and I've loved every one of them.

    Good luck with the move. Can't wait to see more pictures of your new home in Vienna!

  12. I leave a leave a response when I especially enjoy a article on a website or I have something to valuable to contribute to the discussion.
    It is caused by the passion communicated in the post I
    browsed. And after this article "2011: A Year in Review".
    I was moved enough to post a thought :) I do have 2 questions for you
    if you tend not to mind. Is it just me or do some of the
    remarks come across like left by brain dead visitors?
    :-P And, if you are posting on other sites, I'd like to follow you. Would you list the complete urls of your public pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?

  13. It іs done up from diffeгent grades of little aggregаte that
    have been earlier coаted іn very hot bitumen that aсts as a binder when mixeԁ totally with sizzlіng
    asphalt. These сomponentѕ arе οrdinarily sееn in all vaгiаtions of houses, even
    all those that aren't meant to be 'green'. You may be the justification of obstructions in your father's triumph.
