New “Furniture” Tab

08/21/2019 By Bre

Hello Friends! I’ve been working behind the scenes to try and organize my blog a bit better, and make some of the past content easier to find. Although I would not consider myself a furniture makeover connoisseur, I have been known to throw some paint on furniture before, or completely strip it down. I get a lot of questions about what types of stain I use, or colors of stain I used to achieve a certain look, so a post on that is coming soon, but in the meantime I created a new tab labeled “Furniture”, to house all my furniture projects.

Tips for a Stronger Marriage

08/04/2019 By Bre

Hello Friends! If you’ve caught some of my more recent posts than you know I’ve been working on my husbands new office space for his company, and in all my time I’ve spent over there lately it’s gotten me to do a lot of thinking and reflecting on our marriage. Tomorrow we celebrate our 14th wedding anniversary, and I thought it would be fun to share some of my reflective thoughts with all of you. In case you are in need of some encouragement, or perhaps a different point of view. Or maybe just a closer look into our marriage. So today, I’m taking a break from painting, and home decor, to talk about our married life.

It’s hard with Pinterest sometimes to feel like our homes don’t always look quite as perfect, or are feeling a little less then “Pinterest – worthy” views, but I believe that even in those perfect homes, there is something the homeowner doesn’t like.
