Do you remember the first Pinterest project you tried? You know the one that had all the promise in the world of delivering, and making you feel like you were on top of the world. The one where your kids stand in awe, and your husband is so impressed he does the dishes after dinner?! I was so relieved once I started seeing people post their "Pinterest Fails". Like literally, deep exhale of all that striving and thinking "you can do this", just to have a complete and utter failure of a project sitting in front of you staring back at you in all of it's ugliness. Yeah... one of those moments. I have seriously had my fair share of pinterest fails. A so close to amazing project that ended up just ... Read More about So Close to Amazing – a Home DIY Story
Fall Baking : Apple Prisp!
You guys, it's that time of year again. You know when the weather starts to cool off, and you begin to crave comfort food. Those warm dishes that settle in your belly just right. I love to bake all year round, but especially love baking in the fall. Today I'm teaming up with my favorite blogging friends to share some fall recipes with you to help get you in the mood! If you caught my title and thought it was a typo, well ... I my dish is exactly what it says. I came up with this idea to combine my two favorite fall baking traditions.

Boy Room Inspiration
Hello Friends! We are winding down summer over here (like literally today is the last day!) and to kick off back to school we decided to give the kids rooms a bit of a refresh. Because lets face it, they are kids rooms, and tend to take a bit of a beating here and there with everyday living. We have started with my sons room, so I wanted to share with you some inspiration I'm going off to create his new space. Since his walls were in worse condition than my daughters, they needed a total overhaul. When I first painted his room I used some left over paint I had from another project. This was great until I was literally scraping the bottom of the can to get the last drops of paint out barely ... Read More about Boy Room Inspiration
Farmhouse Style Wooden Trunk Coffee Table Ideas
We are winding things down in our last 2 weeks of summer. Fall soccer for my son has already begun, and you can smell autumn in the air as it approaches. I was window shopping online the other day, actually looking for some fall decor inspiration, and during my searching I stumbled upon a beautiful wooden trunk and it reminded me of the wooden trunk we have in our living room as a coffee table. And I thought to myself if I didn't have my current trunk, I would get this one. I know many of you have asked where ours is from, and I hate not having a valid source. So today I'm sharing a variety of farmhouse style wooden trunk coffee table ideas. ... Read More about Farmhouse Style Wooden Trunk Coffee Table Ideas
How to Decorate an Entryway
If you have been a reader of my blog for a while than you've probably heard me say once or twice before that when I decorate our home I change my decor up more seasonally so I get the most use out of it. Unless the mood strikes to refresh a space, I simply stick to the same key pieces, and make subtle changes as the seasons change. Today I'm going to show you how I do this in our entryway. It's a simple area, with not much too it, but even so, changing things up seasonally makes a big impact. ... Read More about How to Decorate an Entryway
Living Room Sources for 2017

I'm in the process of updating my sources, and creating a page to help navigate through different rooms in our house, to make things easier to find. Until then I wanted to share some updated sources for pieces you've seen in our living room this year. My staples have stayed the same, but there have been subtle changes along the way, and I wanted to make everything easy to find in one post. ... Read More about Living Room Sources for 2017
Home Office – A Place to Create
First of all, I just have to say how amazing you guys are! Your comments on my last post, I have a Dream, have warmed my heart in ways you will never know! I feel like I sat down and had the best coffee visit with my closest friends. You know the kind where you leave feeling refreshed and full from having good conversation. The best conversations, that affirm, and encourage one another! I'm so honored to have you hear with me, and I cannot even begin to express the gratitude I have in my hearts for you! So today I'm finally getting around to sharing the other half of the room our washer and dryer are in. I'll be honest when we first looked at this house, this room perplexed me. It's a small ...

I had a Dream …
It's funny, looking back, how clearly I can remember always wanting to be a mom. I can remember being asked as a young girl, and early teenager what I wanted to do when I grew up, and my answer was simple, "be a mom". It wasn't until I was in high school that that answer was no longer the only answer people would accept. I would get responses like "yes you can be a mom, but what else do you want to do?" or "Of course you will be a mom, but what do you want to do for a career". Even though their question changed, my answer still stayed the same. To the point that when it came time to start thinking about college, I boldly told my parents I didn't need to go to college because I was going to ... Read More about I had a Dream …
Summer Living Room Decor
Hi friends! I hope you have been enjoying summer. It feels like such a fleeting season for us here in New England, so I wanted to share a flew glimpse's of our living room with you, as a way to soak up this last month of summer that we have, before fall comes and the kids head back to school! First though, thank you SO much for all your kind words regarding our Farmhouse Laundry Room Makeover. Like most of you, our laundry room isn't really a room, but more a wall, lol. This little transformation has made this area in our home much more productive, and I think we can all agree, when it comes to doing chores, when they are more enjoying to do, they get done! In case you missed it, you can see ... Read More about Summer Living Room Decor
Farmhouse Laundry Room Makeover
Hi Friends! We have been busting out some projects over here that had been put on the back burner since they weren't necessarily pressing to get done. But it feels so good to cross some of these of my list. You know that list that my husband thinks never ends, and can't tangibly see because it exists in my head, and I slowly add to it. Todays project was one that I actually put on the list when we bought our house. But as I said it wasn't the most important so it got pushed down to the bottom. Well not anymore friends! Today it is officially done, and I can't wait to show you! I teamed up with Weaber Lumber to complete this project, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the outcome! Say hello ...

DIY Chalk Painted Cabinet
One of my favorite transformations to do is making over a piece of furniture. I love that for a fraction of the price of buying a new piece, you can make existing furniture work with a little elbow grease. That was just what was needed for the little cabinet we have in our downstairs bathroom when we gave it a makeover. The best part about this little DIY was I completed it in a day, so if you are looking for something fun to do this weekend, or coming week, this is a great project that anyone can tackle. ...
