It’s funny, I sat down to write this post & I typed, “I bet you were probably starting to wonder if I was going to post again…” but then I thought, Hmmm, that sounds mighty familiar. And I’d be right. It is familiar. Because it’s exactly how I started my last post! I wish I […]
home
A place for the mud.
I’ve never been very good at sending thank you notes. Ok, that’s putting it generously. I SUCK at it. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a very grateful person. Just not so good at picking up the phone, sending a thank you card or responding to kind emails/comments in a timely manner. I have been so […]
Home is where the heart is…
…or at least that’s what I’ve been telling myself lately. I think this might be the longest lapse I’ve had in posting. I’m so sorry. The last month has been insane. There were lots of days where I wanted to sit down and write but when I would go to I just didn’t know what […]
DIY Dip Dyed Ombre Window Panel Curtains
It’s funny that in yesterday’s post I had found those teal dip dyed curtains because a few months ago I actually made some myself for my home office! I had stashed away the tutorial because back in April I submitted it in hopes a certain publication would pick it up but alas, it’s now officially […]
Teal Tween Bedroom Makeover
Do you remember ohh, about a week or so ago I was telling you about my neighbor who’s daughter wants a bedroom makeover? Well, she’s officially 12, TODAY! After chit-chatting and going through pictures from my ideabook & pinboard that I created for her room she decided to go with a more neutral wall so […]
Tween Bedroom Makeover
Our neighbor, whom I adore & want to be just like when I grow up, has the most amazing daughter, Rachel. Rachel is kind, polite, sweet & yet strong. She’s exactly what I hope my girls are like when they get to be middle schoolers. There’s one problem with Rachel though, she’s going through a […]
Land of the Rainbow Books
Have a bookshelf that time & time again has stumped you? You’ve tried books but they were…well, boring. Then you did that weird elephant statue & that was just weird, let’s be honest. Fake plants, dumb. Real plants, dead. How about this… It only took me, gosh, maybe two trips to the thrift shop to […]
The not-too-princess girl’s bedroom makeover!
Do you remember, ohh several months ago, when I posted this inspiration sketch for Sam’s bedroom makeover? Well I can’t believe it but the whole room is finally done!! It’s not exactly how I started out envisioning it but over time it’s gradually evolved into something even better. My main goal was to give Sam […]
girl’s room Makeover Part 1: Inspiration!
I’m SO excited for this room makeover! For months I’ve been dreaming about it. Literally. When I can’t sleep at night I decorate in my head. I’ll visualize rearranging furniture or color schemes. Does anyone else do this? After one particularly good ‘session’ I sketched out how I envision Sam’s room makeover to go… If […]
Succ it.
I’m kind of obsessed with decorative succulents…(ceramic pig planter) From my experience as long as you get a container that has surrounding glass the collected moisture keeps them alive. I give mine a bit of water now & then but honestly they’re hard as heck to kill. I bought my plants from Lowe’s & a […]
