I’ve been meaning to post this for awhile, it’s a project we actually did in February. There’s so many projects I’ve done that I haven’t posted because I am so behind. So I’m resolved to get caught up, starting with this pull-out garbage tutorial. Yes, I’m going to share with you how to install a…

Why I Chose Laminate Flooring
After receiving tons of questions about my flooring, I decided to write this post for y’all. You’re welcome. 🙂 I agonized over our flooring decisions when we built our house. I’ve always wanted that gorgeous waxed solid wood flooring that was in the Parade homes. But with three little kids? Completely not practical. And they…
Colorful Living Room
I actually really love neutrals. I love the softness of beiges and creams, the cleanness of whites, the contrasts of grays and blacks. It’s very sophisticated. But I think there’s a bigger part of me that loves color more. Color makes me complete. It doesn’t have to be over-the-top, paint-the-wall-pink bright color. It can be…
Coastal Bedroom Decor
I couldn’t do a full makeover for my bedroom this time…I honestly didn’t have the energy to pull out all the stops like I wanted to. But I did give it a little refresh. Here’s the before: And here’s the after: A little color goes a long way! I only added a few items and…
DIY Stair Wainscoting
I finally finished the hardest thing I have ever worked on– DIY stair wainscoting. Whew–guys, this was HARD to do. However, it was much, much harder because of one thing that most of you won’t have in your house–this angled wall that my stairs wrap around. If your stairs just go straight up a wall,…
Living with White
I just moved…into a house we built that I am in love with. It’s basically a dream come true, living here. And I’m working on a full tour post but that requires a lot of cleaning that I haven’t done yet! That will come soon. But for now here is a little glimpse… I have…
Honeybear House is Live!
My house is up! They start in mid-September and now they are finishing up the drywall. They work fast y’all! It’s been so exciting to watch, and since we in a new development, lots of other houses have been built also. Some are just barely finishing so soon we will have neighbors. These picture are…
A Hole in the Ground
It has been forever since I’ve written about my house! And yet it’s all I can think about. There are several factors contributing to the delay of our house, but last week I got the call: The permit was back and they were going to start digging the house! The neighborhood has gone up so…
Cast Iron vs Stainless Steel
It’s been awhile since I’ve written an update about our home building process. Well here it is–nothing! Okay, that’s not technically true but the house has not started yet. So there’s nothing to show. I can’t remember if I wrote about this but we actually ended up changing locations. Since we switched to a new…
House Update
Hold on…I need to scream. {AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!} Whew, okay. I needed that. It’s been a super stressful year so far. Here’s what happens when you build a house (not custom.) At least here is what has happened with us. Step 1. Find your lot…Check. Or not. We found the perfect lot. But my husband is possibly…
White Kitchens
In case you didn’t know yet, we are now in the process of building a house. We found the lot and have met with the architect about custom designs. Since we are going with a builder’s design, we won’t be doing a completely custom house. So the next step is meeting with their Design Center…
Welcome to Honeybear House
I mentioned before I had some exciting news…I’m pregnant!!! Haha—just kidding. That is the first thing everyone thinks of when people say they have news, right?? Well here’s the real news, accompanied by a long Story of My Life. Congrats if you read it all! About seven months ago, my husband started a new job….
