DIY & Decor
Can you believe we are almost halfway into September? The last several months have gone by so fast. We have made some progress on a house we may be buying, as well as the one we are selling — but it’s still a little bit too early for me to share any details. On Monday, …
We are in the process of selling our first house and doing it DIY style too — as in For Sale By Owner (FSBO). This post is part of a series called, Home for Sale, in which I’ll share some of the details of our FSBO journey. This spring I spent some time sharing how …
One thing we haven’t done often enough on this blog, is sharing some Etsy Love. We have a shop ourselves, and we love to buy from other crafters, but we haven’t shared much about any of them here. Well, today I’m sharing a painting with you that’s just too pretty not too share. Mike’s birthday …
While out shopping this weekend with Lora, I found this cute card on sale at Anthropologie. I love the colors, floral print, and the french saying which means “I love you.” I took French for 6 years and I love the language so I knew it would be a special addition to my work in …
Back in May, I told you about my adventures as a beginner gardener. Well, since we’re moving, I figured that I should share an end of summer update so you could see how my plants have done. I have already commissioned my neighbors to give me an update on our flowers {and maybe snap a …
Last Monday, I showed you our window seat. Today, my husband, Mike, is making his blog-world debut to tell you what we learned while building the window seat in our living room. Supplies 2x4s Beadboard Plywood Self-Drilling Wood Screws Piano Hinges Wood Trim {we used scraps from other projects} Finishing Nails Paintable Caulk Wood Filler …
Several weeks ago I shared our Home Tour, which included the Living Room — and a project I shared a sneak peak of in this post — the Window Seat. I’m going to give you a little background info today and then Mike {my hubby} will be back on Thursday with a “guest-post” of sorts …
How was your weekend? We took a short two-day trip to our new hometown for Mike’s first day in his new job, a little house shopping and getting to know our new church family. They have been such a blessing to us and we are excited to finish selling our home so that we can …
Erica and I love to thrift shop {ohhh-kay, maybe we just like to shop in general}. But even with all my thrifting, yard sale-ing, and consigning, I’ve never bought one thing off Craigslist. That is, until Tuesday. I wasn’t even on Craigslist to shop. I’d seen a blogger who had done a kitchen remodel and …
Learn how to restore a deck with Rustoleum Deck Restore. With this step-by-step tutorial and product review, you can restore a weathered deck over the weekend (and at a fraction of the price it costs to replace the deck!). Well, I know I just shared our Patio Reveal back in June, but it’s already experienced …
I missed writing to you all last week; but it’s been super busy at our house as we’ve been preparing to move! Mike was the Family Pastor at a small church here in Lexington up until about a year and a half ago. It was a church start that we loved dearly and were so …
Last Thursday I shared about the antique dresser that I’m using in our Guest Bedroom to store craft supplies. As promised, today I’m going to share 5 unique ways to use a dresser — none of which are to store clothing! There are so many ways to use dressers. And in so many different rooms …
Back in the days before I blogged… I decorated a room for a very special little boy. But, we didn’t know he’d be a boy. When we found out I was pregnant, we chose to keep the gender a surprise, which meant creating a space that a little boy, or a little girl, would love. …
Happy 4th of July! We’re hoping to spend some time outside today. I’d like to say we’d be eating on our patio, but we’ve got a deck DIY project going on right now. Hopefully, I can share some photos next week! After I shared the reveal of my completed Patio Makeover last Monday, it just …
