Installing Tongue and Groove Shiplap
Hello again! We are back at mommas house to add some more character to her builder grade home. If you caught my last project here I partnered with Airstone to add a high-end custom look to her builder grade fireplace. A new stone facade complimented by a rustic wood beam mantle added so much warmth to her her living room! The next step was adding warmth to her adjoining kitchen! My mom loves the character in older homes and desperately wants to bring some of that character to a new build! With an open concept living room/kitchen space, cohesiveness is so important! We decided adding stained tongue and groove to…

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…

Quick and Inexpensive Dining Room Makeover Phase 1
When we first looked at our home I really loved our dining room. It is separate from the living space which created an intimate space for family meals. It already had a chair rail, beautiful crown molding, and picture perfect *almost* floor to ceiling windows and I knew a quick and inexpensive dining room makeover was all it needed to be perfect for us! Here’s the canvas we had to work with One of the very first things I did when we moved was change the light fixure to this beauty. And I loved it! It worked for a while. But slowly I got bored with the room. It still…

The Power of Paint in a Living Room
When we moved into our house one of the spaces I loved was the living room! It was bare but I saw the potential of this space and loved its high ceilings. But I didn’t love the blue paint! I knew the living room paint was going to be one of the most inexpensive dramatic transformations we could make with the space. But I knew it’d be a task with the height of the ceilings. This is what the space looked like when we looked at the home. Before New Lighting There were a few things that weren’t my taste but one thing I didn’t love for this particular space…

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…

Master Bedroom
The master bedroom. It’s supposed to be a calm, tranquil place where you sit back and relax. Kick your feet up after a long days work. But our space. Definitely not tranquil. Or welcoming. Or calming. This is how the previous owner set up the room. Notice the bed against the window? We have beautiful (almost) floor to ceiling windows that span (almost) the entire length of that wall! I wanted to capitalize on them and take in all the natural light we could! So we placed our bed on the other wall. However, even with some new furniture placement we knew the room needed something. It was seriously lacking.…
