2010!

2009 went by way too fast!  Between planning the wedding, getting married, buying the house and spending every weekend since (and most week nights!) working to make it livable, we were so busy that the year couldn't have done anything but fly by.

So, welcome to 2010 here at Creativity and Domesticity!  This year is sure to bring lots of craft and kitchen projects, as well as plenty of home decorating.  And a new year means a new (sort of) look for the blog.  I know it's only a new header, but it's nice to have something that's a little less generic at the top to jazz up the whole look of this baby.

Now that it's a new year, and after a Christmas holiday vacation from work (but not a vacation from working on the house, of course), I'm ready to jump right into 2010 and make it a memorable one for the husband and I.  We will have our house move-in ready soon!  After some significant set-backs with the supports and floors in our addition that had a huge impact on us not being able to have an address change before Christmas, we have made quite a bit of progress in painting the downstairs and getting the floors ready for refinishing.  Also, our kitchen cabinets have been installed, the counter top is ordered and the tile floor is going in this week!  Yay for kitchen progress!

I've taken some pictures, but still have a few more to take so I can share our progress with you.  In the mean time, I want to show you a picture I came across for cool vintage kitchen storage:

I've quickly become obsessed with this!  I love it!  I can see the bins filled with flour, sugars, chocolate chips, cupcake liners and other fun baking supplies.  And the pull-out spice jars?  Don't you think they are just perfect for sprinkles?
