Do-it-yourself projects and Home Decor
Phase one of my sister’s basement is pretty close to being done and she will be ready to move things down there soon. Her basement being finished is what sparked all these projects at her house. Today I am sharing her fireplace makeover I finished up this week. Her dining, family room and kitchen are […]
Hello! I have not been as active blogging this month as I was hoping. I had a huge list of posts to work on and projects but two birthdays, school concerts, and sickness took over. But I did get one fun project crossed off my to-do list thanks to a knock off challenge hosted by […]
This post is sponsored by HomeRight but all ideas and opinions are 100% my own :) Today is the day! I am finally sharing my sister’s kitchen makeover. I have painted serval kitchens before and my own twice. This was the biggest kitchen I have ever painted and it took a little longer than I […]
Awhile ago I shared a little mini room makeover I did for one of my nieces. Her sister was also in need of a little room refresh. She found an inspiration image and I set to work figuring out how to recreate that room in her space. It turned out to be the coolest boho […]
It is a new year which mean new home goals. I realized I was a bit lofty last year so I think I will be more realistic this time around. Although we did do a decent job of checking some of the items off the list. Let’s review last year before we jump into this […]
My sister has lived in her new home for about a year now and has started to feel settled enough that she has been having me help her fix things up and decorate a bit. I was at her house and she was telling me about this darling farmhouse table that she wanted that was […]
It’s always fun to go back and at the end of the year and see all the projects that were completed. It’s like looking at a to-do list that has been all crossed off. I have gone through my posts from 2018 and found the posts with the most traffic and engagement. I am always […]
This post is sponsored by HomeRight but all ideas and opinions are my own. Ever since I took the plunge and painted my interior doors navy about 4 years ago, I have loved having non-white doors! Maybe it is because it is winter or maybe it is the 4 year itch (hey, that could be a […]
This post is sponsored by HomeRight. All ideas, opinions, and projects are all my own. I have been slowly helping my sister transform her new house over the last year. We have tackle a few rooms and a few small projects. This dated oak dresser that was in her bedroom didn’t match anything else. It […]
Looking for a weekend project? I have rounded up 15 of my easy wood projects that anyone can do. I went clear back into the archives of my blog and some of these projects are from when I first started! Even if you are a long time reader, I’m sure there are at least a […]
Have you ever started a project and then lost steam or got stuck on what to do next? I think we have all been there. This weekend I was able to step in and help pull all the details together to give my niece a fresh new room! When my sister got remarried and bought […]
It’s no secret that I am a full blown plant lady. I love having lots of plants inside and out. Maybe that is why I have so many planter tutorials on my site! I am going to share my favorite DIY planters from over the past few years. All of them you can do in […]
We have been so busy with outdoor projects that I have not done a lot of things inside as of late. I did however decide to take down the winter pine cones that were on the mantel and do a little something more summery. I recently bought a candle holder from Target that (surprise!) I […]
We have been working hard on getting the outside of our house looking a bit better. It has been a long time since we have painted the trim and it was peeling off. Plus I was ready for a change. The trim has been red for 10 years! I painted one window last year to […]
Thank you for your patience as I got this post done with all the links and information about my boys’ mountain room. We were hit with a respiratory infection that had us all flat on our backs in bed for a week. It doesn’t add up, but somehow when I am out of commission for […]
I somehow forget how hard it is to blog in the summertime. Every year the struggle to balance my time on projects, yard work, and the computer takes me by surprise. This tutorial for the L shaped kid beds with storage is long overdue. I appreciate all of the kind words about this set of […]
The back of our house is not very attractive since it is flat and plain but then you add in electrical boxes and conduit and it really becomes an eyesore. I am sure I am not the only one out there who has a spot on the back or side of their house that could […]
It is easier than you might think to build, stain, and seal a tabletop! This tutorial has easy to follow steps with photos.
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 […]
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 […]
