When I first shared our fireplace on social media, so many of you weighed in and gave input as to how to give this fireplace a makeover. I knew refreshing this fireplace was going to require more than just a quick fix if I wanted it to feel like it was always apart of the home. So today I’m sharing all the ideas we’ve thought through, the solutions to some of those ideas, and why we aren’t doing some of the more common ideas you see in fireplace makeovers.
Today I’m sharing how I refreshed our guest bathroom. The plan was to give our guest bathroom some cosmetic updates to help refresh the space, and tone down the red tile. Knowing that eventually we plan to give this bathroom a complete makeover, I didn’t want to spend a lot of money on this refresh. Our main goal was to update this guest bathroom, all with budget friendly ways, to help get us by until we can give it the makeover it deserves.
Each year I like to start things off by writing down the goals I have in mind for our house for the upcoming year. My husband and I joke that the winter is our “Project Season”, but typically it’s because we are cooped up inside due to impending snow. While we don’t always accomplish everything on my list, It does help me focus in on the things I really want to get done around our house. So today I’m sharing all my goals for our home for 2023.
Today I’m sharing a space in our home with you that has never been seen before on the blog. Is the suspense killing you yet? Are you wondering “How in the world could I be holding out from you like this”? When we moved into our home, almost two years ago, pretty much the entire house and been renovated or updated by the previous owner, except for this room. Our guest room bathroom! Yep, our guest room off the living room as a full en suite bathroom which is amazing for guests, especially when our parents come to stay. However, it still has all of its’ original fixtures from when it was put in back in the 90’s – including some very red tile. Are you ready to check it out.
Hello Friends!! Today I’m sharing all the details for our first floor guest room makeover. For our guest room, I’m going for a dark, moody feel, with a slight hint of preppy english countryside.

Hello Friends! I’m so excited to share this latest reveal with all of you. The newest installment of one of my favorite wall treatments – board & batten. One of my go-to ways to add texture and warmth to a room that doesn’t have curtains or upholstery in it is with architectural details. You can add architectural details on the ceilings, on walls, and it instantly can make any space feel cozier. We have installed board & batten to quite a few spaces around our home, and each time I am just as smitten with the outcome. So today I’m sharing how we installed this DIY board & batten in our hallway at the bottom of our stairs.
Hello friends!! I am SO excited to finally be sharing my Hubby’s finished office space with all of you today!! Of course I was thrilled at the chance to put my design skills to use in a more modern masculine space. While my husband pretty much lets me decorate our home how I please, creating a space for him that was more masculine was my goal. Creating a space that was both warm and professional was the goal, because after all this is where he runs his business, holds weekly meetings with his employees, and also has the occasional customer stopping by as well. So keeping all of those things in mind while come up with the design plan was key. I can’t wait to show you what I came up with and how this space took shape!
I often get asked what color our trim is painted throughout our house. It’s not secret, I love really bright, large white trim! It feels so crisp and so fresh, but knowing what color to paint trim can be tricky when you want to achieve this look. But I’ve figured out a way that takes the pressure off of trying to decide which white paint color is “the” white paint color for trim. In fact, I’ve done this time and time again in our own house, so today I’m sharing my go-to trim paint color.
