We are finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to our bathroom reno. It…

I never really set out to “decorate” our kitchen, but when I was in the process of updating the look, I made a point to only bring in pieces that I loved and complimented the look I was after. Since your kitchen is one of the hardest working rooms in your house, incorporating decor that is not only pretty but functional is key! I’m sharing with you today just how I added farmhouse style decor to our kitchen and the key pieces I chose to accomplish that look.

Decorating Your Walls

03/04/2017 By Bre

Deciding what to hang on your walls can be a daunting task. I totally get it. I have some go-tos, no fail solutions, but even those only work in certain wall spaces. Today I’m going to highlight different art I have on my walls, and hopefully provide you with some inspiration for different types of art for your walls too!

Changes in the Living Room

03/03/2017 By Bre

I’ve had an itch to change things up in our living room. Sometimes it’s nice just to move things around just to freshen up the look in your space. I did just that, and am loving just the change of scenery in our living room. The only problem is now that I’ve scratched the itch, I don’t want to stop!

New Frames Around the TV

02/27/2017 By Bre

I shared a little sneak peak on Instagram last week of the new frames I hung around our tv. We’ve always had a gallery wall around out tv, but it’s a view in our living room that you guys see the least, but we see the most. When you are sitting on our living room you face the tv, so to help disguise it I hung a gallery wall around it a few years ago. I always loved the look, but starting last year I was craving a more simple design. There was just on problem.

Bathroom Reno: Part 1

We are in full swing over here with our bathroom renovation, so I thought I would share our progress so far. Mind you I say we aren’t doing anything major because we didn’t take the room down to the studs. The sink and the floor are staying the same. I wanted to do a bathroom renovation that would fix some of the problems, give it a bit of a facelift and be done in a relatively short time frame. Well my thoughts of having it done in a week are out the window.

Weathered Side Table

02/18/2017 By Bre

I love the “weathered wood” look, but sometimes that can get pricey. So I focused my attention on finding on unfinished side table that I could stain myself. I’ve mixed stains before, layered stains, tried the “diy” stain, the only problem I have with those methods is consistency. It’s never guaranteed that your finished look will be like the one you did before. Especially understanding that different types of wood soak in stain differently, and even though you are using the same exact method you get a completely different outcome.

Spring Touches in the Mom Cave

Here in New England we are known for our long winters, so I like to beat the winter blues by adding fresh flowers, and that’s just what I did to add some spring touches in the mom cave.

Update on Life

02/13/2017 By Bre

I felt more like having a 3rd child, instead of my first, you know where you are a bit more relaxed, not as nervous as the first time. If the binkie falls on the floor you just pick it up, lick it off, and give it back to your baby, lol! Well I started off that way, and then leading to up to the week before they were supposed to come, it was like a whirlwind hit of realizing a major publication will be in my house, IN MY HOUSE, and every square inch needs to be perfect! HA, yeah I had one of those meltdowns, and I swear it’s just like preparing to have a baby, you always forget about those labor pains, until you are in LABOR, lol!
