Mudroom Makeover Under $100! | And A Striped Wall

Woohoo! I am SO excited to finally share this space with you all! Funny thing is though, is that I’ve never really mentioned I was creating a mudroom. Well, I sort of have a long time ago, but nothing detailed. So surprise, you get a full reveal instead of just snippets. :) I did however mention that I had a striping fail (not to be confused with stripping), and this was the little hallway that I was doing the stripes on. Another funny thing is that you’ve never seen this hallway ever on my blog! You’ll see why soon. Until then, here is the mudroom makeover done under $100, and with the striped wall!

Home Report Card

Happy Wednesday! Have you ever given your home a grade, or kept score on what all projects need to get done? You know, the not-so-fun projects, but the ones that are a necessity to keep your home in 1 piece and running smoothly? Yea, those. I’ll be the first to admit I’m not the best at it. One reason being is because our home was the basic builder brand new home when we moved in. It’s hard to believe we’ve been here 5 years already! So I’ve kind of taken that for granted assuming all is well. Yes, I’m intelligent.

DIY Gold Metallic Table | Furniture Makeover

Hi everyone hope you had a nice weekend! I have been a little gold happy lately. I just can’t help myself. It makes me, well…happy. And we’ve had this little side table in our living room for forever now, and it was pretty beat up. And not my style any longer. So I went gold-happy on it too and made it a very easy DIY gold metallic table!

Office | In the Bedroom

Hey everyone hope you had a great weekend! We actually had a slight front come through giving us some gorgeous weather! Today I’m excited to show you all our little office in the bedroom. Remember I had mentioned this before last year and how we needed one and even wrote a post on pretty ways to have a desk in your bedroom. I am all for utilizing every inch of your home for whatever purpose you need it to serve. And since many homes don’t have a dedicated office room or an extra room to spare, it’s completely fine to make a little nook in your bedroom, which is exactly what I did.

Replacing The Light Switches

That may not be the most exciting title you’ve ever seen, but trust me, it’s exciting. Why? Because I replaced a regular light switch in our hallway with a Lutron Maestro Occupancy Sensor dimmer switch! Why is this exciting? Because it’s hands free and we don’t have to physically turn on the lights anymore! When we walk in the hallway it detects motion and turns on like magic.

Painting Stripes | A Striping Fail

Well yesterday I was on a roll doing a few projects, cleaning the garage, taking care of the garden etc, and then I also got a wild hair and tried painting stripes on a wall. I’ve been wanting to do them for a while and nothing like family coming into town to get your rear in gear. And in my case practically redoing 3 rooms in 1 week. Not really. But sort of.

Anyway…my striping attempt numero uno was a fail.

Do It Herself

Hi all hope you had a lovely weekend! Mine was very productive so that’s always a good feeling. You know I’m all about a little DIY right? DIY or DIH, meaning, do it herself. I went to a DIH workshop a few weeks ago at The Home Depot and wanted to tell you all about it. I love how they empower the ladies to take on those pesky DIY projects. :)

Easy DIY Chalkboard in the Kitchen, and a Silhouette Cameo Giveaway

But today, I want to show you the world’s easiest chalkboard. Like ever in the history of DIY. Why? Because it’s just chalkboard vinyl!

The Painted Pantry Door!

Why didn’t I do this sooner y’all??! Last week when I posted about some inspiration doors I really had a hard time deciding which route to go for our pantry door, but you all did help me with my decision. And in the end I went with….

Painted Interior Doors

Happy Monday everyone hope you had a good weekend! I’ve been pondering painted interior doors for quite some time now, so I’m finally coming to you all to help me make a decision. I’m going to do this, and wanted to do it yesternow, but I just couldn’t decide. I love it when I see other people paint their interior doors black and think it looks so sharp. Why haven’t I jumped on the bandwagon yet?! I think I’m going to start by painting our pantry door in the white kitchen, so keep that in mind. If all goes well, then I’ll do the rest. :)

A Dirty Job, But Someone’s Gotta Do It {And a $250 Home Depot Giveaway}

You know those jobs around your house that you know need to get done, but just never get done? You know the ones I’m talking about. Cleaning your tile grout falls into that category. It’s definitely considered a dirty job too, since I just did ours. See our tile in the kitchen? ……(Readers reading in a reader click over to enter the giveaway)

Baby Girl Nursery Reveal!

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.
