Sweet Neutral Nursery Reno for a Sweet Baby Girl
When I found out we were expecting ANOTHER little girl, I immediately started planning the nursery! I knew I wanted something calming and serene. Somewhere I could go and snuggle this sweet baby and be able to just relax and feel cozy. After doing my little girls room in pink I knew I didn’t want another pink room but I did want to add a touch of something girly. I ended up with a neutral baby girls nursery with greige walls, a sage green accent wall, and pops of pink for a feminine feel. I started the room makeover by creating a fresh slate and removed everything from the room…

Little Girls Room Floor to Ceiling Transformation
When we purchased our home we thought the first floor space was a good fit for us. With 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the main level and tons of extra space in the basement, we figured everyone would have their space. But when we decided we wanted to grow our family we knew that would mean putting a little in the basement(uh no!) Or bunking our 2 oldest together! Luckily our secondary bedrooms are large and can accommodate 2 beds. So when we found out we were expecting again I started planning a joint little girls room fit for sisters. I wanted a cute feminine little girls room that…

How to DIY Drop Cloth Curtains
Yes. You read that right! Drop. Cloth. Curtains! If you’ve never seen them before you may be thinking of a plastic drop cloth covering the wall; maybe looking like an episode of Dexter. But I’m talking about the fabric kind of drop cloth! The ones that almost look a bit burlap-ish! I hung drop cloth curtains in our dining room and was a super inexpensive beautiful solution for privacy and design! Check them out!

Our Dog Inspired Master Bedroom Makeover
We finally took a much needed leap in our master! Now, I’d love to say it’s because I’m spontaneous like that or because I just love making content or even because it was the next project on the to do list (and everyone knows how much I like checking things off my to do list). This master bedroom makeover was so lovingly inspired by our pup! This handsome fella is Beast! He is a sweet 2 year old Great Pyrenees and he was the daddy to our last litter of puppies! He is normally a sweet well-behaved little boy who is silly and playful but calm and well mannered. Until…

One Year in and We’re Not Stopping
We are finally here. This is a post that I have been looking forward to for a very very long time! We have OFFICALLY been in our home for 1 whole year! We moved into this house just 5 short days before Christmas with no time to decorate. I could not wait to decorate for Christmas this year! Over the past year we have accomplished so much. I am so proud of all of the progress we have made. This house is feeling more and more like a home with each project completion. So without further ado, I give you a side by side comparison of what our house looks…

Where Will Our Guests Sleep!?
We finally took on the task of renovating the basement! And with company coming in one week we needed a guest room in a hurry. Thank you 2 day delivery!! We ordered a queen sized bed off wayfair and set it up! Next, we got the mattress in from Walmart. Then we were gifted this cute dresser and a sewing cabinet from some AMAZING friends! I decided she needed a coat of black chalk paint and some new drawer pulls. We placed the dresser cady corner and used the sewing cabinet as a nightstand. Then added some decorative touches. I placed some extra towels in a basket on top of…

Basement Wall Demo Part 2
We’ve made some more progress on the basement wall demo! This is the wall we had our sights set on next. We grabbed the hammer and started swinging away and before we knew it this is what we were left with! Slowly but surely we are getting there! The next big task for this room? Clean up. Once we get all the debris out of the room the non-load bearing walls can come down. Then we will have to get a contractor to come out and install an LVL beam for the wall that is bearing the load! Stay tuned for more basement progress and some other projects as well!

Basement Ceiling Demo
It has officially begun! Today was Day 1 of basement ceiling demolition and I must say in pretty pleased with the progress! This is where our basement started! We began removing the panels and here is how far we got during nap time. Just by removing the ugly office panels we gained about a foot in ceiling space(except for the duct work) and even found an additional air vent that was apparently blowing air into the ceiling! We’ve got some really cool plans for the space but we can’t reveal them just yet! Stay tuned!

It was the perfect FREE peice to finish up our guest room! I love working…
