It’s finally done! The pink and gold nursery we did for my friend Kristen’s adopted baby is finally finished. It feels like it took forever because Kristen’s family is super busy and we just couldn’t work on the room as often as we wanted to. But her daughter isn’t one year old yet, so that’s…

DIY Mudroom Bench
One of my first projects in my new house was a DIY mudroom bench. We desperately needed a place to put our coats and boots, especially since we moved in during the winter. I was feeling a little intimidated by a project of this caliber, since the only wood working projects I’d done up until…

You want a farmhouse table. You want to save money. So the answer is obvious…build your own! You might think this is an impossible task, but guess what? I built this table. And I built the bench. And I was super proud of myself. What do you think? I love it! Here is how my…
Extra Wide Barn Door Plans
I recently revealed my hall makeover, which included one of my projects to do this year–build a barn door to cover my closet entry. It’s always been super open and often a mess which I just wanted to sometimes close up. Occasionally when we entertain large groups, they need to use the master bathroom so…
Installing a Schlage Encode Wifi Deadbolt
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Schlage for IZEA Worldwide. All opinions are 100% mine.

Build Your own X-Leg Outdoor Table
One of my bigger and more spontaneous projects this summer was building an X-leg outdoor table. We have a nice deck with a beautiful view and we haven’t really utilized it as much as we wanted to in our house so far. I built some outdoor couches a couple of years ago and we’ve used…
How to Use a Cordless Nail Gun
One of the best things I ever learned was how to use a cordless nail gun. And buying my little Ryobi Airstrike 18 gauge brad nailer was one of the best purchases I ever made. I have used this tool in countless projects and it is such a game changer in DIY. Lots of people…
How to Use a Cordless Drill and Driver
When I first started doing DIY projects, the biggest hurdle was learning how to use power tools. It seemed intimidating at first, but I just took it one or two tools at a time and increased my skills as I went. I really want to inspire you guys out there to be brave enough to…
DIY Faux Olive Tree
West Elm Inspired Dining Table
Oh boy…this project has been a few years in the works. A long while ago, my friend was talking about how she hated her kitchen table and she wanted one from West Elm but the ones she liked were out of her price range. I offered to take on the challenge and build her her…
Closet Hallway Makeover
A hallway is a random spot to makeover and frankly I didn’t even think this hallway needed any jazzing up. It goes between my bedroom and my bathroom and literally no one ever sees it except for me and my hubby. Here is the before… I recently did a linen closet overhaul and this is…
