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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
Cabinet Dollhouse
This post really should be called Finishing the Handmade Christmas Gift in the Nick Of Time. This project took way longer than it should have. I may have gotten a little carried away and kept adding things to my list of things to make. You see, my Minwax post this month was to make a […]
New Cabinets Doors!
This post was sponsored by CabinetNow but all ideas and opinions are my own :) When we moved into our home the orange-y cabinets were not my favorite. I painted them an off white and that helped. I did not love the style of the doors but I lived with it because getting all new […]
DIY Woven Pillow, Watercoloring, and FREE Classes!
I love learning new things! I think it is important to take the time to acquire new skills. It challenges our minds, gives us a useful new talent, and allows us some “me time”. Some of the things on my bucket list are water coloring, welding, and pottery. I dream of having a large workshop where […]
Easy DIY Terrarium Lamp
If you know me even just a little bit, you know I LOVE plants and terrariums. I have had this idea in my mind for a long time but I have never gotten around to doing it. When I Like That Lamp reached out to me, I knew this was the perfect time to implement […]
Round Sliding Bathroom Mirror
I shared my bathroom reveal this week. Thank you for all the kind comments on the post and on social media. I have been enjoying leaving the door open instead of feeling like I had to keep the door close to hide its ugliness. There is one more thing I have yet to share about […]
Blue and White Bathroom Makeover
FINALLY! That was the first thing that came to mind when I went to write this post. My bathroom has actually been done for awhile and I am not sure why I kept hesitating to do the photo shoot. Maybe I just wanted to live with it for a bit and make sure everything was […]

Joining Boards With Dowels
Are you sitting down? Because I finally have some progress on my upstairs bathroom! I know, it’s shocking. Having a blog and working with sponsors is awesome but the downside is that sometimes you are not following your to-do list in order. I have to complete things according to when they are due and so […]
Leaf Resin Magnets
My kids collect things. Most of those thing come from outside like sticks, rocks, and bugs. My youngest some collected som leaves he thought were cool but was sad when they curled and dried up. I suggested that we press them in books to better preserve them. While he was waiting (not so patiently) for […]
Easy DIY Outdoor Chairs
We are lucky enough to have a nice fire pit in the backyard. Having four boys who love all things outdoors, we use it all the time. Up until now, we have lugged out the dining room chairs every time we use the fire pit. I finally broke down and decided that outdoor chairs needed […]
DIY Drink Coasters
I love my card catalog that I built years ago but I waxed it instead of using polyurethane like I normally do and it is a bit more, let’s say, high maintenance. It gets water rings easily. I finally decided to make some coasters so I didn’t need to buff it as much. I had […]
Planter Box Fence
I am so stinkin’ excited to share this backyard project with you! It has been weeks in the making and I am thrilled with how it turned out. When Thompson’s WaterSeal asked if I had any big outdoor projects we could work on together, I knew this planter box fence was it. I dreamed up […]
