Thank you to Lamps Plus for sponsoring this post. I was provided product for review but as always all opinions are my own. The bathroom is officially finished, which makes it the first room in the house I think! This weekend my husband and I added the finishing touch on all the changes we've made-we replaced the builder grade lighting with … [Read more...]
When I was a little girl I loved going to my great-grandfather's farm on the weekends. He lived in a gorgeous two story farmhouse in southern Virginia...one of those picturesque homes with the wrap-around porches. There was a chicken coop in the yard, geese wondering around, corn and cotton fields as far as the eye could see. In the barn out … [Read more...]
We all know what Sunday is-that's right, Mother's Day! That one day a year where we hard-working Moms get a little extra pampering! How many of you are like me and never get a moment alone? Not even in the bathroom? Little hands reaching under the door, screaming accusations of favorite-dinosaur-stealing piercing the peaceful silence of my … [Read more...]
When I shared my list of what I'm working on the other day I neglected to mention a few projects on my list for the master bathroom. I've already painted it, added custom blinds, and framed out the mirror but I'm still working on switching out the vanity light fixtures and builder-grade showerhead. (Stay tuned for those projects … [Read more...]
Sometimes in the blogging world it can seem like other people are doing the impossible....making over entire houses in a weekend while homeschooling ten kids, cooking only gluten free vegan gourmet meals and looking perfectly stylish and hip at the same time. Yeah, not this lady. I try to plan my projects ahead of time and I love sharing the … [Read more...]
When we first moved into our house last April I shared my youngest son's nursery with you. I designed it using Montessori education as inspiration-we have always used a floor bed instead of a crib with Tommy, and I had purchased some IKEA Expedit shelving to keep things low at his level. I was very happy with the nursery at first but over the … [Read more...]
So do you remember back a few weeks ago when I shared my "vision" for my office/craft room space? Well I have some posts to share this week about how I've been making my vision happen..and there's a lot of DIY in the mix!! First on the agenda was the curtains. My inspiration was this West Elm Striped Shower Curtain. While I probably … [Read more...]
Oh my, is it cold where you are? This Southern girl does not know how to handle the freezing temps we've been getting this week! We're due for an ice storm tonight as well-you might get lots of posts next week because I'm not leaving my house if the weather gets crazy! I've been hard at work decorating my office/craft room-it's not reveal-ready … [Read more...]
My husband and I have been hard at work transforming our master bathroom into the vision we had when we first built the house. I recently shared how we painted the room and put up a gorgeous custom roman shade from Blinds.com-it made a huge difference in the feel of the room but the next thing on our list was to frame out the mirror. Here is the … [Read more...]
First, I have to start by saying that I {heart} my Facebook peeps. Y'all totally motivated me the other day when I was reluctant to paint my master bathroom (which had been taped up for a week already!) Every time I started to burn out on the painting I'd just check in on FB and look at all the "you can do it!" and "you go girl!" messages … [Read more...]
So what do you think about the whole starburst mirror fad? Have you hopped on board yet? My husband has been resistant to go there but when I had the idea for this DIY version I had to try it! It all started with an old clock we had that I had set in my junk pile workspace in the garage to upcycle in some way. Over the holidays I received the … [Read more...]
Are you tired of my maps yet? I hope not! My oldest son's birthday is today-he's six and I can hardly believe it. He was my inspiration for creating my first stained world map months ago and recently he's been asking me for a new map for his room. Last week I made this rustic stained United States map just for him and he's pretty excited about … [Read more...]
