Happy Monday! Or should I say “May the 4th Be With You”? In all honesty I’ve never been that into Star Wars even though growing up the rest of my family was, and by not being that into Star Wars I mean I don’t even know which of the movies I’ve seen or… Continue reading DIY Stair “Tiles”
I’m a huge fan of wallpaper. And by huge, I mean I would deck out the entire house in it if it wasn’t so dang expensive … and if my husband would leave town long enough for me to get away with it. But since we’re under this thing called quarantine I can’t really send… Continue reading DIY Brushstroke Walls
I’d love to say our attic renovation is completely done but it’s still missing some paint, some wallpaper and some light fixtures … and some organization. The attic bathroom, however, is done! The “construction” phase of the bathroom reno involved tearing up the tile floors, tearing out the 2 vanities and knocking down a wall… Continue reading Bathroom Reno
We’ve been working on our attic transformation since late last Fall and I’m a bit embarrassed to say we still aren’t quite finished. I’ve done a lot of projects in my life but never have I ever spent SO much time on one … I think it’s gonna be good though and totally worth the… Continue reading Playroom Reno
The words chalk paint and modern do not go hand in hand. Or do they? I didn’t think so until I finished up my latest DIY endeavor. Believe it or not, I had never used chalk paint until a few weeks ago. Say what? I know, I just might be the last person on the… Continue reading Chalk Painting My Way to Modern
Good Monday morning! The Super Bowl really should be on a Saturday, am I right? Luckily it was a peaceful morning in our house due to the Eagles winning last night. I’m not sure how our morning would have started out otherwise due to my husband, and more recently our four year old son, being… Continue reading One Room Down
Good Monday morning! I shared some details of my son’s mini room makeover a couple of weeks ago and I’m happy to say I have reached a stopping point – meaning I’ve done all it makes sense to do in a room of a house we very likely may be listing on the market soon.… Continue reading Oh Target, How I Love Thee
I’m in the middle of kind of redesigning my son’s room, who’s now three. THREE?!? I still can’t believe my husband and I have managed to raise a pretty much perfect child. Yes, I’m biased. I say “kind of” redesigning because I’m limiting myself – and if you know me well at all you know… Continue reading From Out-Dated Country to Freshened-Up Modern
As some of you may know I don’t rely on this blogging gig to pay the bills and I actually have another job that I get paid to do. Thank God for that, right? We celebrated Lab Week at my other job in April because that’s what labs do each year and I work in… Continue reading Candle Making 101
Okay, so these are more like little jewelry or coin dishes as opposed to catch-alls (you really can’t fit a whole lot in them) … but they are hand-made and they are clay. And they’re air-dry clay at that – no oven required. Hopefully that excites you as much as it did me. I’ve had… Continue reading Hand-Made Clay Catch-Alls
