Hello Friends!! We have been quite the busy little bees over here lately. With temps in the single digits lately, we have been in hibernation mode. Perfect time to bust out some projects from the to-do list. If you follow me on Instagram, than you know there are lots of things happening over here. For those not on Instagram I will fill you in a bit over here, and also provide a little more info for the Instagram posts you have seen.So we sold out black dining room table! I know you're thinking WHAT?! But yes, it was time to bid her farewell, and although I like the table much more once it was black, it still wasn't my dream table, which the hubby so sweetly offered to make. So first I had to ...

10 minute DIY Wall Art
Today I want to share with you a quick project, with few supplies needed, that almost anyone can do. I love decorating my walls with photos and art that celebrate our life. My kids, our family, and our marriage. I love all the arrow art that seems to be the latest craze and came up with this simple diy project after seeing this inspiration here. I didn't want to have to go out and buy anything to make this, so I strictly used what I already had so for me this project cost $0, but if you don't have everything, you won't have much to get :) I started with this free chalkboard background found here.Then I uploaded the image to Picmonkey, which is where I edit all of my photos. The thought ... Read More about 10 minute DIY Wall Art
Kitchen Details & Sources
So now that all the holiday dust has settled, and all those fun decor posts are done. Back to house stuff!! And onto a few details about our Kitchen Update. And I would like to remind you that other than painting and a few decor changes, there was no major renovation that took place! It's amazing the power of paint, and how that alone can transform a room. We started off with our main theme to de-brownize the space. While the cabinets are white, every other surface seemed brown, and appeared to take over the room.Before :So when we moved in it looked like this. Pretty much a blank slate. Since the kitchen was the only room in the house that wasn't painted yellow, this room was on the bottom ... Read More about Kitchen Details & Sources

Discovering Your Style with A Statement Chair
Now that all the christmas decor is put away, I always feel like the house feels like a clean slate. The new year poses a perfect time to redecorate or freshen up any room in your house, a chance to look at things differently, or finally create your favorite space. One of my main goals is "To help others Love the space they Live in." I don't care if you own or rent, you can Love any space you Live in. One of the things I hear most often is "I just can't seem to figure out what style I like" or "I don't know how to put things together" or even "I don't even know where to start". Sometimes a whole room can be intimidating when creating your favorite space, so lets break it down a bit and focus ... Read More about Discovering Your Style with A Statement Chair
Family Photo Shoot {2013}
I'm so excited today to be sharing our most recent family pictures. We had them done at the end of October, in the most perfect setting, with the most perfect light, and of course the most perfect kids. It's ok they are about the only thing I can be biased on and no one can tell me otherwise :) HA HA! Our photographer is AMAZING! I've shared before a few images she's captured, and this time is no different. She out did herself, and we are just in love with the outcome. I told her I'm going to paint my walls with her photographs, and now you can see what I mean. Here are some of my favorites :The last three photos are of just the hubby and me. I love that my husband totally puts up with me, ... Read More about Family Photo Shoot {2013}

I haven't ever done a Top 5 post on the blog before, so I figured it was time to give a try!

Pinecones, Mercury Glass & Greenery Christmas Tour {2013}
I don't know about you, but I can't believe we are down to the last week before Christmas, already! I've started my christmas shopping, but am no where near finished. UGH! I have had so much fun this year soaking in all this holiday season has to offer. I've had the honor of decorating other homes than just mine, which has felt like one big christmas celebration week after week. I've completed almost everything on my Christmas Bucket List, with the rest lined up to be completed this week.

Christmas Mantle Sneak Peak
Things have been in a decorating frenzy over here. I've been busy decking the halls, which you can totally get some sneak peaks on Instagram. This year we are totally neutral. Pinecones, greenery, and mercury glass. It's by far my favorite theme, which is making me think I can get rid of everything else, and just stick to this for years. I spent last week at a few other spaces decking their halls for christmas, and a few holiday parties. We are starting off December with a bang! Today I'm sharing with you one little sneak peak of our mantle. There is still one part that I can't decide if I'm finished or not, but I will have the rest of it up this week, along with some more Christmas around ... Read More about Christmas Mantle Sneak Peak
2013 Advent Calendar
So this year I finally got around to making an Advent calendar. I had big hopes in the past, but there just weren't enough hours in the day. I always love being able to start new traditions with the kids, and this one has been a huge success.I have been waiting since last week for a nice sunny day to get some decent pictures, and today the sun finally broke through the clouds. I had our Advent calendar first set up in our dining room, which was a great display spot, and the kids could see it, but I really wanted them to take part in it. So I later moved it to the kitchen.If you follow me on Instagram then you've already seen the boatload of Christmas decor that has taken shape around here. I ... Read More about 2013 Advent Calendar
Getting Ready for the Holidays!
I am so excited for this week! Yes, I love Thanksgiving, and am thrilled for Thursday. This is also the week however that we traditionally get our Christmas Tree and decorate for christmas. I love to decorate for christmas, and every year the kids get more involved, makes it that much more special. I tend to never decorate the same way twice, but I figured I would share some highlights from last year just to get the christmas spirit stirred. Enjoy!This year I'm totally switching things up with my dough bowl, but last year it was front and center loaded with cinnamon scented pine cones. You could smell it when you walked in the door, a big favorite of the hubby!I'm thinking of doing almost ... Read More about Getting Ready for the Holidays!
