I want to know y’alls secrets. Let me first say I am LOVING this blogging thing. But, I’ll be honest here and tell you I haven’t cleaned my house in 2 weeks since this all began. I straighten things up, but the vacuuming and dusting have not been done. The laundry has been done, but the clean clothes sit in… View Post
Sneak Peek…
I’ve been a busy bee this week. I’m working on our master bedroom and can’t wait for it to be finished and show you! I still have to add a few finishing touches, but hopefully by next week I can do a reveal. :) I have big plans for our room that will come in the very near future, but… View Post
I was featured…and big thank you’s!!
I have to give a big shout out to 2 of my friends who have amazing blogs, for recently featuring me! I was just over the moon on both occasions (and still am)! Last week, Allison over at House of Hepworths featured me and even wrote an entire post dedicated to just me!! How sweet is that?! Allison is… View Post
Dollar Store hurricanes
Have you seen these candle holders from Williams Sonoma before? Aren’t they pretty? Way too pricey though. Here is a knock off version that will cost you only $2 to make! I first saw this idea from Get Your Martha On when she made her version here. They looked so beautiful so I just had to try it. The… View Post
Thrifty media cabinet turned display unit
Ever have one of those projects that goes great in your head, but turns out to be a doozy? Yea, this was one of them for me. Luckily though, I am pleased with the final result. :) I went to the thrift store last week and spotted this lovely thing. It was $35 and in perfect condition. I know $35… View Post
Happy Memorial Day!
Let us all take a moment this weekend to remember the brave who have sacrificed their lives for our country. My heart goes out to anyone who has lost someone in service. They are not forgotten. Blessings, Decorchick!
Concealing the clutter
Do you have an entertainment center that has glass cabinets like we do? The kind where you can see all the junk gaming systems, unorganized DVD’s, and anything else that landed in there? Well, I hate clutter as much as I hate roaches. Actually, I am terrified of roaches, but that’s for a different post on a different blog that… View Post
Accessorize your accessories
I like to dress up things around the house. Adding just a little pop of something small to an accessory is just, well…cute! It’s no secret I love ribbons and bows. I have them in several spots. I love big fat bows on a lamp shade. I love ribbon on vases. I love starfish too. Something about them is just… View Post
Interchangeable cheese dome cloche
I jumped on the cheese dome turned cloche bandwagon. They are all over bloggyland, but I first saw Allison at House of Hepworths transform hers. You can find her post about it here, and it’s a fabulous tutorial. She is just too good and I heart her like I heart chalkboards. I found these at Goodwill. Aren’t those Candlesticks gorgeous?… View Post
New window treatments I made, and breakfast room redo
Warning, this is kind of a long post, but y’all like pictures and how-to’s right? Okay, good. :) Our breakfast room used to look like this… Please take note of the extremely low curtain rod, high water drapes, and the breakfast table too big for the breakfast room. Geesh, this is almost embarrassing showing. But, I’m just keepin’ it real…. View Post
I heart chalkboards
Chalkboards are a great way to add that touch of coziness in any room of your home. It’s a fun way to write sweet notes, honey-do’s, your favorite scripture, the dinner menu, and the list goes on. They are also very inexpensive to make which makes them even better. I buy the chalkboard spray paint at Home Depot and it’s… View Post
Update that knife block!
I’ve had this knife block forever. I think my mom got it for me when I moved into my first apartment? Anyway, it’s OLD, that’s all I know. And you can definitely tell it’s old when you look closely at the knife handles with the cracked and missing pieces. :) But that’s okay because we use them regularly. To eat… View Post
