I shared with you last week some goals I have for our home in 2016. If you missed it, you can catch that post HERE. Today I thought I would share with you some of the design ideas I have in mind for our downstairs bathroom. I have wanted to tackle this bathroom since the day we moved in, and fill it to the brim with character. Sometimes the smallest rooms are the easiest to decorate, because a little goes a long way, and sometimes …
Thank you so much for all your kind words in regards to our exciting feature!! It’s so fun to celebrate goals I’ve had since I started blogging with all of you! Today I have a fun bedroom themed blog hop for all of you! Camila from Effortless Style Interiors put together this fun tour with one challenge – refreshing our bedrooms! I was so excited because I shared with you the other day …
I’m so excited to share with you today that our make-shift farmhouse entryway is being featured in a magazine! Hitting newsstands today is the spring issue of Country Women Magazine, where our entryway is featured. As fun as it is to see things online, there is something different about being able to hold it in your hands. I’ve always been one who feels …
So I’ve caught a bug. Not a stomach bug or any type of sick bug, so don’t worry. It’s funny how refreshing one space can be contagious, and now I have caught the bug of freshening up more of our spaces. We have a running joke around here, between my husband and I, that I always have a project! He may be right, but just as we approach our 5 year mark of being in this home, I was starting to think there really wasn’t anymore left to do, or was there. I did a re-cap last year when we hit the 4 year mark and it’s full of all sorts of fun before and after photos like these ….
I always feel a huge sigh of relief when the word Easter starts making it’s way into conversation. It’s like that light at the end of the tunnel of a long dark winter. Thankfully this winter hasn’t been anything close to what it normally is, but once Easter arrives I can usually stop holding my breath that a possible snow storm could happen. Yes we may get a flurry or two, I’ve had lovely wet snow fall on my birthday which is the first week of May, but nothing to worry about it’s usually back in the 60’s in the following couple of days. So with Easter, comes my sigh of relief …
We are almost in the last days of winter. I will say this winter hasn’t been anything close to what our normal winters are like, or last years 1 foot of snow twice a week winter! With that being it can still tend to feel like spring is never going come! So today, just for fun, I’m sharing with you some of the things I like to do to beat the winter blues, when it feels like ….
If you are new here, or visiting for the first time, I started the process of Simplifying our Living Room in the beginning of the year. I had shared how lots of elements in the space just started to make it feel like the walls were closing in, and I was craving a simpler feel. It’s a hard balance to find when you aren’t quite a minimalist but don’t want to be the queen of “collectives” either 🙂 I made some fun DIY Abstract Art to help calm the walls down, and today I’m going to show you more of the built-ins between our living room and dining room…..
I mentioned in my Living Room Refresh post that part of simplifying our space, also meant simplifying our wall space too. I think I love gallery walls just as much as the next person. They are such a fun, unique way for me to artistically express my creativeness. My form of art, if you will. However, when the walls start to feel like they are closing in, and things start to feel cluttered, sometimes it can be too much. So I made a pair of DIY abstract art …..
It feels so good to refresh a space. I’m so glad I let our living room have some breathing room. I was craving a little change, which I talked about HERE, so when I simplified our living room, it allowed me to bring back only what I absolutely wanted in the space. Of course finding the right shade of bright white paint helped me not rush the process, and really added some impact to the refresh.
