Do-it-yourself projects and Home Decor
I hear it all the time in person and in comments online. A lot of you do not feel confident in having houseplants and swear you have a black thumb. I am here to tell you that there is at least one plant out there that you can keep alive which is why I am sharing […]
I am a huge fan of leather (or faux leather) furniture. As a mom of 4 boys and a dog, it has been so easy to care for over the years. But aside from the ease of cleanup, it looks amazing! It adds a richness to a space like nothing else can. I am partial […]
My nephew got married and it was the first wedding I had attended since the world has been battling a pandemic. It was such a sweet celebration. Much smaller due to obvious reasons, but joyous all the same. We decided to not just go for a couple of days for the actual wedding, but to […]

I built this bed with storage for my oldest three years ago. He has now moved out and my third oldest wanted to use this bed. To better fit the new space, we decided to take the headboard off. We also PAINTED it. Oh the power of paint. It looked like a whole new bed! […]
I am so excited to share my home with you today. It has been a hard week and I am looking forward to browsing through the other home tours that are being shared today. I even have my cup of cocoa ready :) This year I decided to do the theme “Woodland Creatures” because I […]
