Don’t shoot me. I know chalkboard walls aren’t technically “in” anymore but the moment I knew this room would be the boys’ playroom, I knew I wanted a chalkboard wall. What does this floor have to do with anything? It’s the only picture I can find of the playroom and THIS was what the floor looked […]
DIY Projects
DIY Chalk Paint Nightstand
Good morning! Although we completely gutted our home, the fact is that it is still over 100 years old. Therefore, there’s always some kind of project going on. Plus, when you move it seems like it takes years to settle in. I’ve also found that your style (mine does, at least) seems to evolve over […]
DIY Basketball Goal {Made with Pallets}
Good morning! Wow! What an amazing surprise to see our story featured on The Nester this weekend. You know how much I adore her and her laid-back style and nature so it truly was a dream come true! If you’re new here, I am SO thankful you are here! Your thoughtful comments truly made my […]
Our Home is an Open Book
What does it mean to love your home? For me, I loved this house for so long that I never even dreamed we would actually be here. And now, it’s our home. I firmly believe that your home tells a story and fully describes and indicates who you are as an individual and as a family. […]

Authenticity and Kid’s Art
Good morning! I do have a playroom update for you but first, I need to be a little bit real. “The given place in which I grew up issued a script that spelled out a life lived near family, in a safe neighborhood where you had a fence and cute curtains, and where life wasn’t too […]
DIY Striped Dining Room Table
Good morning! Thanks so much for being here and hanging around while we finish so many little projects! I couldn’t wait to share this one with you because it was so simple! I’m not sure if you could tell last week from our updated home tour but I painted stripes on our dining room table! […]

Open Shelving Questions Answered
Good morning! One of THE most asked questions since we shared our kitchen was about our open shelves. Were they hard to clean? Do they get dusty? Why didn’t we install cabinets (that one can be answered for layout purposes…see that window right next to the shelves? Not nearly enough space for cabinets!)? Some of […]
The Dining Room Table Saga {A Re-Post}
Good morning! As basketball season continues, projects aren’t getting finished like planned (and that is COMPLETELY FINE! We are enjoying this time so much and would NOT trade it for the world!). Have I mentioned how much I love these guys? And Saturday mornings together? And that I love how much they love our boys? […]
