There’s been an ongoing debate in our home for over a year about painting some dark wood cabinets in our casa. We have dark wood cabinets in our master bathroom and dining room, dark wood countertops in our kitchen and dark wood treads on our staircase too – all of them I love and would…
Hello all, happy Friday! I’m trying to recover from the mild headache I’ve had this past week every time I try to make a decision on what kind of tile to choose for the hallway bathroom project we’re starting. This hall bathroom is the most ambitious project on my Home Goals list so I’m getting…
For a while now I’ve had my eye on Ashley Goforth, a talented interior designer from Houston, Texas. I spied some images from her portfolio online last year and was immediately drawn to her style – so simple and livable, timeless and elegant. Ashley blends textures, periods, and patinas so successfully – her rooms are…
I go through phases where I obsess over certain colors, and the color of the month for me is sea green – I’m totally crushing on it. I’m not sure I’d be brave enough to paint my own walls or cabinets in this shade even though these spaces pull if off well. Perhaps I’ll stick…
Hey everyone, I managed to snap a few shots yesterday of the upgrades to the downstairs powder room! Freshening this space was one of my Home Goals of 2012 and I’m loving the new look. This downstairs bathroom is just 3’ x 8’ but a few changes added some real drama to this space. Here’s…
Aw, what’s cuter than a kitten to brighten your Monday morning? Hey kids, this is the big news around here, guess who is the newest family member in our house?
Hey all, I’m so excited to show you the beadboard wallpaper in our powder room! I’ve been thinking about doing this for a long time, especially after reading Rhoda’s tutorial, and at last I got around to it the other day. This really is such a great solution for those who want to add the…
Leave it to Nester to kick my boo-tay in gear every year and get me to put pen to paper and make a list of goals for around the house. So I did. Last year, I did alright, met at least 80% or something like that. This year, I’m feeling just as ambitious. I’ve got…
My sister’s birthday is coming up this month so I wanted to make her something nice that I know she’d appreciate. I also like a hot bath at the end of the day especially since I’m exercising and eating raw foods and my body is rebelling (“Where’s the cheese? You’ve always fed me cheese! Where’s…
It’s fun to look back on what we obsessed about in DIY and design over the last year, from chevron patterns to chalkboard and pallet everything! There were so many inventive projects and gorgeous spaces we saw in 2011, when I look back on my own inspiration files, I’m amazed all the beautiful rooms I…
Greetings all, I hope you’re enjoying your time off with friends and family. We’re coming down to the last few days of the year, and that means it’s roundup time! Looking back, I narrowed it down to a list of fifteen of my favorite DIY projects from 2011. Here they are in chronological order, follow the…
Ho ho ho everyone and happy Friday! With the holidays in full swing, I’ll be spending the next few days with the family enjoying the season and counting down the days, only 16 days till Christmas, wow! I have a fabulous giveaway for you all this weekend brought to you by Bedding Style. How nice…
Well it’s certainly looking a lot like Christmas around here which means some things are done like the tree and mantel, but much of it is not. I’m going very minimalist with the décor, perhaps it’s because I’ve had to bring it all out a few times this year, so I’m keeping it simple. I’m…
