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 to our most recent makeover – our Farmhouse Laundry Room.

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.

Patriotic Summer Dessert

Hello Friends! I hope you had a wonderful 4th of July!! We love to get together with family and friends and celebrate. Hosting is one of our favorite things to do, but if you have entertained before you know that sometimes coming up with all the food can be a bit daunting. Sometimes ideas or recipes come right to me, and other times I feel like I’m having a complete brain fart and don’t even know where to start. Today I’m sharing one of my favorite patriotic summer dessert recipes, that no matter what season you are in instantly makes it feel like summer. It’s a slight twist on a classic favorite and is a high demand in our house. I hope you enjoy!

Hi Friends! I hope your summer is off to a great start and in full swing! Our oldest has been away at his first summer camp all week, and this mama’s heart is going through all sorts of emotions about it. I’m sure it’s been a wonderful week, but I’m dying to hug his neck and hear all about it! With the 4th of July quickly approaching, things finally feel like summer has arrived around here, so I wanted to share with you some front porch decorating I’ve done, and how I subtly add some patriotic flare!

Incorporating Rattan in your Home Decor

You’ve heard me say it before, that while I don’t typically decorate for every holiday, I decorate for the seasons. I think growing up in New England where the four seasons are a bit more prominent has trained me for this mind set when it comes to decorating our home. I want to welcome each new season, and all it has to offer, by incorporating pieces that remind me of that season throughout our home. Texture is a great way of adding warmth to a space, but incorporating seasonal textures is another great way to decorate your home seasonally. Today I’m sharing with you my favorite pieces for incorporating rattan into your home decor.

The “NAY-Sayers”

Hi friends! How are you today!! I’ve been sharing a bit from the heart lately, and well, I just can’t move on until it stops weighing so heavy. I hope that’s ok. And please know I’m not changing my blogging focus from Home Decor, but I think it’s important to share multiple aspects that happen to inspire life. Recently I’ve shared with you the importance of “Doing What You Love”. And how vital that is as a creative soul, a person, to make sure that life doesn’t stifle us to the point where we feel uninspired to do much of anything. Then I shared with you the “Nastiest 4 Letter Word” that we can all fall prey to every now and again- FEAR. It’s a dream crusher, and can cripple even the most daring risk taker. Theres another aspect of pursuing your dreams that I haven’t mentioned yet. It’s not quite as crippling as FEAR, but it can still stop us in our tracks if we aren’t careful – the “NAY-Sayers”.

The Nastiest 4 Letter Word

I know I know, there are a lot of bad 4 letter words out there. It’s hard to believe there is one that is the nastiest of all. But to a creative soul, a dreamer, the one stepping out on the water with extreme faith and courage, there is one 4 letter word that can leave us paralyzed right where we are. It begins with the letter “F”, and no I’m not talking about the one that rhymes with “truck”. FEAR.

Summer Tour of Homes 2017

With summer on the brain, I’m sharing a few tweaks I did to our home to get ready for the warm months ahead. Of course one of my most favorite ways to decorate is with fresh flowers and greens. Let no branch be left behind, ha ha. You can always find me outside in our yard, or perhaps my neighbors (he he) clipping away and bringing in whatever I find to be placed in a jug, or a jar somewhere throughout our home. I’m joining a few of my blogging friends who are also sharing glimpse’s of their homes for summer as well.
