GOOD MORNING! Boy, do I have a surprise for you today!?! In the midst of unpacking, finishing up the treehouse, staining the deck and trying to do something with our outdoor space, all before Russ goes back to school, I asked one of my FAVORITE designers aka one of my FAVORITE people to share with […]

Easy Ottoman Makeover

Hey hey! Happy Friday! Can you believe it’s Friday and ALMOST the end of July!?! We are still going strong with outdoor projects but none are quite “ready” to share. I will have one next week so keep an eye out! Today, I’m so excited (of course) about this ottoman my parents gave us years […]
DIY Project Under $15 {A Bed Swing}
I have to admit. This project was super cheap for us because we had most of the supplies on hand. No, we aren’t hoarders but there was a porch swing already here so we reused those hooks, we had free pallets and we used leftover screws and wood from the treehouse! The only thing we […]
A Pop of Color with Wayfair

Good morning! I’m so glad you’re here this morning and hope this inspires you to add a little color to your home, too! As you know, we have worked tirelessly to bring our foreclosure up to date! One of the biggest transformations in our home was most definitely our kitchen. However, you also know […]
Blogger Stylin’ Home Tours {Spring Refresh}
Y’all. Did you just read that title? This is yet ANOTHER dream come true. Let me back up. I met Lindsay years ago and I fell in love. Her sweet, kind personality just draws you in completely. Then, one day perusing blogs last year, I saw this adorable familiar face on Young House Love and […]
DIY Striped Floor
Good morning! I hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend celebrating with your families and friends! I was kind of quiet on social media all weekend because I couldn’t seem to find the right words. Kuy has been asking a lot of questions about the entire Easter story and as we tried to explain it, my words […]
DIY Benches {Hometalk Curated Board}
Good morning! A couple of weeks ago, sweet Liz from Hometalk contacted me about curating a DIY Benches board. I LOVE our bench (that I keep moving from the porch to the dining room) so of course, I jumped at the chance! There are so many options and I couldn’t stop clipping benches to this […]
DIY Chalkboard Wall
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 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 […]
