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…

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…

How We Made a Big Impact in a Small Laundry Closet
One of my favorite things to do is to makeover spaces in other people’s homes! Check out my mom’s stair renovation here! Or her pantry renovation here!

Laundry Room Reno
I finally tackled our laundry room!! This room has given me grief since we moved in. I’ve always wanted a huge pinterest worthy laundry room! I had crazy dreams that included a large mudroom space and doggy shower. And when we moved into this home I knew I was not going to attain those dreams here. But that didnt meant I couldnt dress up the space that I DID have! So this is what we began with. Cream walls. White cabinets. White porcelain pulls. Door that opens inward. Popcorn ceiling. Linoleum floors. And this wonderful little pop out that has the ac intake on the otherside(aka not removable!) My first…

DIY Photo Signs
Hello again! Today I give you a DIY project that’s super simple and inexpensive to do! I searched for the perfect signs to hang over the nightstands in our bedroom and when I couldnt find anything I liked but a quote, I decided to make our own. I grabbed to large peices of plywood we had left over in our scrap pile and my husband used the blow torch to burn them. You could also stain or paint them to match any decor style! I then used my Silhouette Cameo 3 to cut a vinyl stencil for my quote. I placed it on the wood and used a simple white…
