The Start of a Long-Awaited DIY Kitchen Dream We bought our house almost 7 years ago and it was a new build so we got to choose everything but since it wasn’t custom, there were some limitations. Plus, over the years some things have changed for us but since the beginning I knew there were […]

It’s still fridged outside but as much as I don’t want to step a foot outside right now, I have lots to plan. Once the weather starts to get warm and everything starts to bloom, you’ll be so happy that your yard is exactly as you want it. Every year I kick myself as I […]

Sometimes the best projects are the simplest ones. I had three days to give my boring spare bedroom an inviting atmosphere for some overnight guests, and I was starting from scratch! All I had to work with was a bed, some boring white walls, and an outdated headboard. I decided to create an earth tone […]

Have I ever renovated a bathroom? Not really. We added a new vanity and did some pretty stuff to our half bathroom but never something of this scale. I am nervous! I have been thinking about this renovation for years but I’ve been really planning it for the past 4 months. Usually I am the […]

Did you hear?! I built my own dang media console! I’m still deciding on how I’ll finish it, but in the meantime I put together a roundup of similar consoles to the one I built! Check out these amazing options that are so similar to what I built and they are HUGE which makes them […]

What I’ve been asking myself a lot in preparation for this overhaul is ‘what is in the ultimate workshop?’ That sounds a bit aspirational, no? But if you really think about it, most of the time, the things that make things great, are not big fancy, expensive things. It’s the small things that meet a […]

For the past couple years, our storage solutions on the garage have been open shelving. It’s good for some things but open shelving isn’t great for organization unless it’s all large things. All the small little things like wood filler, stain rags, etc get all piled up. It really isn’t the best storage solution. That […]

Eight weeks. One Room. Completely complete. This One Room Challenge was special for me because for the past [almost] 2 years, Steve has been working from home like so many others. He hasn’t had a terrible setup but in the home office, it was kind of a catch-all. We stuck an old desk that we’ve […]

After a not-so-intentional hiatus from the blog, we are coming back with an exciting project! We are going to be remodeling our home office to be a office/gym combo! The theme of the past few months has been functionality. My vision for this office was beautiful, traditional and, to be honest, a complete waste of […]

  I can’t believe that it’s the end of the One Room Challenge. At first, it felt overwhelming to commit to transforming an entire space in 6-8 weeks and then it felt like it would never end. But here we are on reveal day and I’m so happy to have this half bathroom completely complete. […]

The One Room Challenge has officially begun after a slight delay due to quarantine. I am so happy to be participating in this challenge and to get to make over this half bathroom that has been eating away at me from the day we moved in. It’s Demo DAY!! Before we dive into the demo […]

The Master Bedroom in the new house is much larger than the one we moved from. I still didn’t want to cram it full of stuff and make it feel crowed and small. So, when we were moving I decided to sell the dresser we had. Then move all of our clothing storage into the […]
