Happy it’s Friday but wishing it was sunny and 7

Happy it’s Friday but wishing it was sunny and 75 ☀️ tidying up the house before my cleaner comes to do a big clean tomorrow... does anyone else feel the need to pre-clean for cleaners? Just me?
•
With all the construction I’ve had going on at my house lately, I’m so thankful for my decision to have a house cleaner. Only problem is she never knows what to expect when she comes over because I’m always doing a project. Oops!

Well, that escalated quickly 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ve said this before but I always knew my stairs were a problem. And knew this day would come. It’s cool for me to be able to see the process and learn more about behind the scenes.. not only what it takes to make them “pretty” but to make them right. And I’m able to have my @langconstructionllc crews come do the work for me on the weekends so I can be a part of it. Learning from my projects only makes me better for yours!!

A word for this project? Patience maybe? How about contingency 😆 (A circumstance that is possible but cannot be predicted with certainty.) We tell all of our clients this. There’s always an unknown on renovation projects. This project started out as a quick facelift... remember when I bought a runner and gallon of black paint? Yeah me too. Here we are, fixing the real problem with the stairs before it can get pretty again.... with a few upgrades while we’re in there.
•
Adding an access door to this unused storage space under the stairs and re-doing the railing so it’s a little more updated are definitely wants vs. needs. It just makes sense to keep going since we’re already here.
•
Shoutout to my badass bosses @howielang and @lauren_m_lang for letting me be a part of the “we experiment on our own stuff before we do it in a client’s house” and for our structural foreman Jeremy who puts up with me and all my crazy ideas. 🖤

Dear 2021, be good to us. Last week we said goodby

Dear 2021, be good to us. Last week we said goodbye to the @langconstructionllc showroom and @gorillastone fabrication warehouse. We'll be nomads for a little bit until we can get settled into our new home, but it's business as usual (with a mobile showroom for me 😊) but we'll be back soon with a bigger and better showroom. Can't wait to start sharing some of the things we have up our sleeve.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Side note: Who wouldn't want to go over your next home renovation project and look at things like tile samples and cabinets over a happy hour? Let's do it. 🖤

Let’s get in our feelings about 2020, shall we?

Let’s get in our feelings about 2020, shall we? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2020 was the year I chose myself over a job...twice. I spent too much time in 2019 and whatever freedom we had in 2020 being pushed around in toxic workplaces.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2020 was the year I jumped. Two amazing people took a chance on me and quickly became family. 🖤 (@lauren_m_lang @howielang @langconstructionllc @gorillastoneinc )⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So 2020, thanks for leading me to my dream job when I least expected it. Thanks for allowing me to help so many frontline workers with @defineddesignsshop masks. Thanks for giving me grace, getting me in my feelings... good bad and ugly, letting me cry on my birthday (sry not sry) have so many laughs, FaceTime calls with family, and even a few road trips. I drank all the white claws, watched everything Netflix can offer, and maybe ignored my blog a little, but I also did so much more that wasn’t captured on Instagram. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2021 is going to be a good one. I can’t wait to share all the adventures with you. Let’s knock some walls down, paint everything black, and make things pretty. ✨

Is this a personal post? Who knows. You might know

Is this a personal post? Who knows. You might know my dad from the beginning of the townhouse renovations. He’s basically my hero. Remember the time he fixed a broken (read: cut in half) floor joist in my house for $18?? 🙌🏼 He still rolls his eyes at my home projects.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To me it’s a vacation, but had a great time visiting “home” for the holidays.... not looking forward to the 10 hr drive back though 🙈🖤 swipe for a little peek at my holiday vacation. ☀️

No time like Sunday afternoon to start a project t

No time like Sunday afternoon to start a project that I’m not 100% sure how to finish just yet 🤷🏻‍♀️ my head is full of ideas for this staircase and I’m not sure where it’ll land just yet. Should be interesting to see how it turns out.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is a multiple part project so it’s only fitting to start with demo on the railing, right? Depending on this wall, tile and paint is in the near future.

The start of my newest townhouse project... I neve

The start of my newest townhouse project... I never thought I was a fan of a stair runner until I saw @cloe.thomson ‘s most recent stair makeover and she changed my mind. I immediately went online and snagged this bad boy on a Black Friday sale. Some left over tiles, paint, and this will be a whole new staircase pretty soon. 🖤 #paintitblack
