Some people don’t like anything above their kitchen cabinets, and some do. I happen to like a little something up there. But what I previously had up there wasn’t working for me anymore. Here is the before (with the kitchen still painted Tobacco Road): What was bothering me about those dishes and pitchers up there is that they seemed a… View Post
A Sea of Glass…The Summer Mantel
Y’all know how much I LOVE redoing our mantel right? Well it was time for another switcheroo since summer is almost here (yay!), and so I wanted to bring in some bright cheery colors, and since I can’t get enough of yellow these days, yellow and aqua is what landed on the mantel this time. And what’s even better is… View Post
So Long Tobacco Road. We Had a Good Run.
Well, I’m sure you all saw this one coming. I had said I wasn’t going to repaint the kitchen until I stained our cabinets darker, but yea, my paint addiction kicked in at the end of last week and I just went for it. And as silly as it may sound, painting over Tobacco Road was a little sentimental for… View Post
Welcome, A’la Mode!
Y’all are in for such a treat today! I met Shelli (I think on Twitter?), went to her blog and fell in love. It’s jaw-dropping gorgeous. I asked Shelli to do a little guest post so I could show off her home to all of you and so you can get to know the girl behind the blog. She’s been blogging… View Post
Rug Updates
I have 2 life-changing things to say today. That may be stretching it a bit, but that’s ok. A few of you have let me know the rugs in our living room are now available in an 8×10 size at Overstock! So if you were wanting the 5×8’s like we have which are still sold out, the 8×10 is available… View Post
When Will The Shedding Stop?!
I do love our new rugs from Overstock that are in the living room now, but the shedding of the rugs is quite maddening. I know the rugs weren’t the most expensive (but not super cheap either), but the quality still seems good, and they are nice and thick with a good pile height. But I have been vacuuming them… View Post
A New Retreat: Living Room Reveal!
Well the home tour continues today with the new living room! It really feels like a new room. Actually the house feels like a new house again, and now finally, a home. I think we all strive to make our homes a welcoming retreat and a place to relax comfortably at the end of the day, but, it takes time,… View Post
Floored: The Office
I’m finally going to show you all the new wood floors in the Office! I’ll be doing a few little home tour posts and this room is first up. I have added a “Our Home” tab on the navigation bar at the top of the page and will continue to update it as rooms get complete, or near completion. :)… View Post
All You Need is Drama.
Umm, hello new luscious long drapes that totally transformed our living room! Where have you been all my life? Over the weekend I spent 4 hours on one of those death metal ladders hanging up the curtain rod. It wasn’t fun. Not at all. But, it was well worth the sacrifice to have those lovely curtains hanging up now! So… View Post
The Spring Mantel
Spring has sprung and I’m loving it! Y’all know how much I love redoing our mantel each season, and now I really love it with the new paint color on the walls because it allows me to pretty much do whatever I want to do now. Not that I couldn’t before, but some colors just wouldn’t have looked right with… View Post
The House Is Painted, The House Is Painted!
OH.EM.GEEEEEE!!! Y’all aren’t going to believe how the house looks now! I think I am still chanting that the house has finally been painted. And if you are totally confused right now about why I am so excited about paint, you can catch up here and here. If you have been with me on the painting ride, I’m sure you… View Post
Wainscoting Question
I’m going to add the wainscoting like I did on this wall, and in the office, to the living room. There are really only 2 connecting walls in this room, and one of them is full of windows. So, I plan on doing it to this wall on the right… But my question is, would you also do it on… View Post
