I finally did a master bedroom makeover. Technically it was kind of decorated before…meaning I had a few extra pillows on my bed and some old art on the wall. I placed a few trinkets here and there. But just look at this disaster of a room. If I could just close off the other…
Furniture
DIY Storage Shelves
Things have been crazy around here, especially since I have decided to declutter my house all at the same time, so everything is just OUT all over the place and in the midst of it I have about five other projects due, Easter and my son’s birthday, and soccer season starting. I really hope…
Storage Room Organization
My storage situation was a disaster. I can’t stand disorganized storage because it makes life SO much harder than it needs to be. Don’t you hate having to remove five to ten other boxes of stuff before finding what you need? Or risk everything falling on you in the process? I always end up hurting…
How to Paint Laminate and Veneer
I ran into a little problem awhile back. We were using some borrowed dressers that the owners needed back, so I started searching for some replacements. I wanted something French country and curvy, and when I stumbled upon two dressers on KSL (Utah’s Craigslist) for $150, I was super excited. We went out and bought…
Staining my Dining Room Table
This post was sponsored by Cabot Premium Wood Finish and Sits Girls but all content and opinions are 100% mine. I spent ALL DAY today ruining my kitchen table. I’ve been painting a lot of various pieces of furniture this week and my kitchen table, which I painted white last year, was screaming at me,…
Replace a Glass Table Top with Wood Planks
Here’s the story of a side table that wanted to be a planter but in the end discovered his true calling in life was as a side table. So I bought this little side table from a thrift store one day. It had an ugly glass top. No offense if you have glass topped tables,…
Pottery Barn Knockoff Sawhorse Console Table
Want an expensive looking side console table without paying the big bucks? Creating knock offs from companies like Pottery Barn and Restoration Hardware is not always that tricky or complicated. I sometimes see these knockoffs that are totally impressive but I’m like “Yeah….I’m never going to make that.” But this knockoff table really is SUPER…
Vintage Circus Nursery Reveal!
Oh my gosh you guys. After like a year+ of preparing this nursery it is FINALLY done!!!! And I’m so super excited to show it to you because this room pushed my design limits and really made me go out of my comfort zone. But I honestly LOVE how it turned out–it is so perfect….
The Ultimate Lego Organizer
My mother-in-law saved all of my husband’s Legos from when he was little. I mean seriously–entire, complete sets preserved for the last 20 years. That’s some serious care. All the Legos from my house growing up are missing tons of pieces and my mom probably threw the rest out. Anyway, so one day she pulled…
Kids Workbench from Old Table
Remember that Craft Room Pegboard I made? I didn’t use the entire thing and so I had a cute idea on how to use some of the rest…a kids workbench! I think this turned out so cute. I was going for a Pottery Barn Kids effect rather than the primary-colors-and-plastic variety. And it was actually…
Headboard Makeover: Black to Aqua
Last day to enter the Loxly Hollow Nursery art giveaway!! ********* I woke up one morning with the hankering to PAINT. So I decided on a project that wouldn’t take too much time, since it was still 100+ degrees outside. Meet my headboard. We found this wicker (if wicker is the right term here) baby…
