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...]
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...]
This post brought to you by dio. All opinions are 100% mine. Y'all are going to love me after today because I'm sharing the coolest site with you. Seriously, I have been playing on this thing all week! It's called dio and with it you can create an online "environment" of sorts, with rooms, entrances, exits, etc. I know, I know....you … [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...]
Finally! The pictures I've been waiting to share with you all for weeks (and you would have gotten them a good two weeks ago if the baby hadn't killed my laptop!) After I lost my original pictures we had an insane amount of pollen roll in and I had to wait for it to let up a bit so I could rephotograph the patio-but here it is! {eek!} I'm in … [Read more...]
If you follow along on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram you've probably seen that the last two weekends have been all about the backyard over here. Here's a little backstory for ya: Last April my husband and I moved into our new construction home. We were able to hand-pick our lot and customize many things about our house and it was a really … [Read more...]
Are you ready? I am sooooooo excited to share my final office reveal with y'all today! First, lets see what I started with, do you remember when I posted about my sons deciding to share a room and being left with this blank slate? Isn't the transformation awesome? Let's take a look at that picture of the room again and break down what … [Read more...]
Do you remember when I shared my original plan for my office/craft space and I showed you the bare bones picture of the room after I moved my four year old's things to his big brother's room? See that table there, all disassembled on the floor. Yeah, that was what I was working with for my work surface in the new office. I liked the … [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...]
Recently my two older boys (who are 4 and 6) decided they wanted to share a room. With my four year old's old room empty, I have convinced my husband that it should be my craft room/office. (He was not hard to convince-he hates my "stuff" being all over the house all the time!) Here is the room now: Right now I don't feel like painting … [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...]
