Remember when I wrote a few weeks ago about my thoughts on Pinterest? Well, I really tried to not go overboard for Ellie’s 1st birthday party and I think I succeeded! I had a vision of a plethora of different things for a theme, so I’m calling hers a vintage shabby chic ballerina tutu and pink party. How’s that? While not going overboard, the dessert table was still very pretty I thought.
Ahhh finally!! I’m SO excited to show you all our little girl’s nursery reveal today! I think this has to be one of my most favorite rooms I’ve completed to date. As you might remember, I decided to go a whole other direction in this room a while back. I finally had a clear vision of the perfect smokey grey paint, paired with soft pale pinks, whites, and touches of gold throughout. And that’s exactly what the end result came to be.
People have dreams, people have ambitions. People often think those dreams aren’t achievable or their goals are too far fetched. I’m here today to debunk those silly myths because they really are possible. How so you ask? Well, because I am in a real magazine!! And not just any ole magazine. It’s Better Homes and Gardens’ Kitchens + Bath Makeovers magazine!!!
Hey guys! I’m excited to show you a little home tour today, summer style! I’m joining Gina from Shabby Creek Cottage for her Summer Tour of Homes this year. If you are stopping by from The Graphics Fairy, thank you, I can’t wait to show you our home! So sit back, relax, and enjoy the tour!
Hey guys! I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted about the nursery. I know I know. I won’t even list excuses but I can say that the full room reveal will be written about before she is walking and toddling around okay? Hold me to it. Even though the room has been technically “done” for quite some time, there were a few final finishing touches I needed. And one is this gorgeous monogram I got from Southern Nest. Oh my heavens it’s so pretty!!
First off happy Memorial Day everyone! Last week marked my blogiversary of 3 years! Crazy how time flies and how there is so much work still left to be done to our home. You’d think that after writing about it for 3 years now that I’d run out of stuff to talk about and there’d be nothing left to do. So not true. These three years of blogging have been truly amazing. I am beyond blessed and don’t take any single day for granted. But let’s talk about how my style has changed for a sec…
Hi everyone! I’m glad to be back. We had a little impromptu trip this past weekend and enjoyed being unplugged for a few days. I’ll show you some pics from our adventures this week. But today I wanted to show you 18 amazing kitchen makeover ideas that I found!
You all know Robert and Cortney Novogratz’s show on HGTV right? I love it! They are just adorable and have a huge family with some cute kids! Their design style is bold and colorful, with modern and vintage elements to create that perfect space. They are very unpredictable which is also so fun!
Yes you read that right. Let me tell you one more time in case you missed it…but I redid our bedroom again!! This makes #4 I think? There wasn’t anything wrong with the old room, but it was just lacking. Lacking life, lacking coziness, and lacking personality. I like the word lack today apparently. But once we got in the new upholstered bed, everything was just grey. Grey I love, but the grey walls, grey bed and grey curtains were just too much together. So now, here is a room I love. Our new navy and coral bedroom!
It’s true. I keep secrets from you. Every blogger does it just goes with the territory. ;) BUT, they are good secrets! Like top secret projects you will be blown away by. You all will think I am crazy when you find out what I did, but it’s good. And until then, ponder over this image for a while…
Ever since we have had the faux mantel in the entry/living room, I’ve had the same mirrors up on either side flanking it. They were fine, but I really needed something more. Our house has evolved and changed so much since we got that mantel, so I needed some mirrors that look more updated like the rest of the house. I’ve been considering these mirrors at Target ever since I’ve seen them. Then they finally went half off so I snagged them up.
Hope you all had a great Easter! I wanted to fill you in on what’s going on in this brain of mine. You see, I have a little problem of starting projects and not finishing them. Well I finish them up until the last final details sometimes (like ummm, the nursery!) and then start something new. So last week in my never-ending wheel-spinnin’ brain, I decided I wanted to do something. People are always painting their furniture and such different colors, so instead of white or black which is safe, I’m going to use this color…
