Fall Kitchen | 2019

4 Sep

Hello Friends!! I shared yesterday how we are beginning to slowly transition into fall. I think one thing I always have to remind myself when I'm swapping out our seasonal decor, is that it's not a race. I don't have to rush to have it completely finished in one day. I can take my time, and work my way around out house, creating little vignettes here, or swapping out throw pillows there. Because when I rush, I don't always enjoy it - it feels more forced. Instead I allow my spaces to speak to me, and create as I feel inspired. I started transitioning our kitchen into fall, come and take a look ~ ... Read More about Fall Kitchen | 2019

Kitchen Floor Demo

Hello Friends!! Well, demo has officially begun on our kitchen floor. I have to be honest with you, this tile demo has truly been a test of stamina. After tearing up the tile floor in our master bathroom makeover, I anticipated the mess. The debris and dust that comes with construction. I thought it would be like our bathroom. I thought there would be some work, but I never expected it to be like this. ... Read More about Kitchen Floor Demo

New “Furniture” Tab

21 Aug

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. ...

Hello friends!! First of all I wanted to say THANK YOU for all your kind words about our little basement staircase makeover! It truly was one of those areas that didn't seem significant enough for a makeover, but once we finished it, we couldn't stop asking ourselves why we had waited so long to tackle that space.
