Let’s chat about wall murals…. I’ve been seeing them around more and more and when done right, they are spectacular! I admit I spent way to long looking at them on Pinterest the other day trying to figure out which wall in my house could handle one. I’m going to share my favorite examples and […]
Installing Vinyl Plank Flooring
The finished part of our basement was covered in mismatched carpet that was who knows how old. Remember when I shared the before pictures? I was thrilled when we were finally ready to replace it with a better option. We replaced the carpet with vinyl flooring. It is cost effective, easy to install, and it is […]
The Best Way To Clean Your Grill {Giveaway}
I don’t know about you, but as soon as the temperatures hit about 60 degrees, we like to pull out the grill. After getting snow, and then torrential downpour for a few days, the sun finally peeked out long enough for grilling Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately, we didn’t clean the grill after our last use in […]
Simple Spring Home Tour
If you are here from Nina’s blog, I’m so glad you are here! If you haven’t checked out her home yet, hop on over later. It is beautiful! Springtime is busy for me. Spring concerts for the kids, starting to work outside for the first time, finishing up “winter” projects, and I tend to have […]
Modern Boy Bedroom REVEAL!
When we decided to split the four boys up into two different rooms, Shane and I moved out of our bedroom. I had to come to terms with saying goodbye to my stenciled ceiling. It had a good run for almost eight years. A couple coats of white paint later, this space was a blank […]
Leather Tab Curtains {Sewing Leather}
I meant to get this post up last week but time got away from me. Not only am I trying to get the second of the boys’ bedrooms done, but the flu bug has hit our house again. I swear it is all I can do to keep up the regular stuff let alone the […]
Faux Brick Wall
When I was planning out the details for my sons’ room, I was worried that with white walls and black beds (you can see the bed reveals here!) that the room would see too stark. I wanted to do a feature wall to help soften things up. I have loved the look of German schmear […]
DIY Modern Beds {Teen & Tween Room}
Aaaahhh! I finally can share with you the beds I have built for two of my boys. I am so happy with how they turned out, but more importantly, my boys are thrilled with their new space. When Shane and I moved our bedroom into the unfinished basement so we could split up our boys […]
Spring Clean…Steam Clean! {Giveaway}
I used to be the main person who cleaned because my kids were too little to do much more than help tidy and Shane was in school full time and working full time. Now things have changed and my boys have daily cleaning jobs. In some ways it really helps, but the OCD in me […]
Easy To Build Toy Box Crate
This post is sponsored by Minwax :) Even though I blogged about it 6 years ago, I still get emails all the time asking if I have a tutorial for the crate I built that was in my living room. It was the first thing I built from scratch and I built it a long […]
The Easiest Way To Paint Ceilings and Walls {Giveaway}
So much has been happening here at the house! We are making some nice progress on the basement. Most of it I still can’t show you, but it will be worth the wait! I have the other bedroom mostly complete so I have moved on to working on the other room as well. The kids […]
1970’s Ranch Rambler {Home Tour}
Good morning! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend. Utah finally remembered what winter was and we ended up with almost a foot of snow. The boys were excited to finally be able to go sledding and I enjoyed having Shane home to help with basement projects. I am getting so excited to share […]
Details About My Under Sink Dishwasher
This post was sponsored by The Home Depot. Ever since I started blogging, the biggest question I get about my house, is asking how in the world I have a dishwasher under my sink. I have been meaning to write this post for years so I had something to refer them to. Now that my […]
Displaying Children’s Artwork {Hallway Makeover}
The only places in our basement that have been “finished” since we moved in, are the two existing bedrooms. A large bedroom my boys shared, and the bedroom Shane I shared. The hallway was technically finished in the sense that it had walls and carpet, but it was not decorated. The hallways leads to the […]
2018 Home Goals and Progress So Far
2018 has gotten off to a very busy start at our house! I dove head first into working on the basement. Projects that we have put off for years are now done and it feels so good! The first thing we tackled was to rip out our old carpet on the stairs and replaster the […]
Crushing On: Marble
My house is currently a disaster. There is dust everywhere from the drywall mud, piles of painting supplies, baseboards that need to be installed, boxes of flooring, and lumber. So occasionally it is nice to escape and look at pretty pictures on pinterest. This month I am crushing on marble. Normally my mind immediately goes […]
Declutter & Steam Clean {Giveaway}
I admit I struggle with keeping my house clean in the spring and summer because all I want to do is go outside. Outside projects, gardening, playing with my kids, hiking, etc. So if I am going to get deep cleaning done, I’m better off doing it when the weather is less than ideal. I […]

I have been neck deep in messy projects in my basement with nothing pretty to show for it…yet. It has been so fun to take breaks and check in with the DIY contest. I loved seeing all the projects linked up, I loved hashing out the top 10 with the judges, and I loved seeing […]
The Top 10 Projects {Public Voting is Open!}
Ahhh! It is always so hard and so nerve wrecking to pick the top 10. This year we actually have a top 11. We had a tie, then I thought we broke the tie, then we had another tie. Needless to say, narrowing it down was HARD. I want you to know that even if […]
