Little pink (Christmas) houses for you and me

December 8, 2018

If you give a girl some glitter… And a group of Dollar Tree Christmas houses… And she happens to have some pink spray paint… Then… Well, this happens. And a new pink, sparkly Christmas Cottage community is created. I don’t know about you, but I could live there. It’s almost a public service if you…

Christmas Spaces Tour: Our Mid-Century Modern

December 4, 2018

Hello friends! It’s that time of year when life seems to go into lightning speed mode as the holidays approach, and all I want to do is turn on my Christmas lights and make cocoa! As simple as I hoped to keep things this year, being the first year in our “new” to us home, a…

DIY Frosted Paper Magnolia Wreath

December 2, 2018

  I love wreaths. And I didn’t realize how many I had (similar to the shock when you survey how many craft supplies you have amassed or what your hoard of furniture to paint looks like) until we moved this year. Knowing that I could make more, and some of them had been stored haphazardly…

Christmas old + new

November 26, 2018

Sometimes sprinkling a few new treasures along with our favorites sure does refresh what we already have for the holidays. The excitement of unpacking the boxes of ornaments, some Bing Crosby playing in the background, and the anticipation of the events unfolding in the weeks to come. And could I just say that I hope…

Our Christmas home + what I learned about Christmas ornaments

December 17, 2017

Most years I find myself digging thru each and every box and bin for every last ornament and all the Christmas decor the house can hold. You know you have more than enough ornaments when you can no longer see the tree. This year seems to be different. I finished the home office, and brought…

Easy white Christmas wreath + burning the banana bread

December 10, 2017

  Do you ever feel like you don’t accomplish enough? Like simplicity or relaxing and letting some stuff just go is something you’re just not good at? I have not a confession or a secret to tell you, but a statement. It’s a statement because anyone who knows me knows I forget things sometimes. Or I…

Cozy spots for Christmas: Merry + bright Christmas home office

December 4, 2017

  Well before Thanksgiving I had visions of creating a spot in our home to read, relax, and enjoy the season away from it all. Enter my home office which is STILL going thru what seems to be a three year makeover, but we put that on hold to enjoy the most wonderful time of…

How to flock a Christmas Wreath

November 11, 2017

  Inspiration sometimes seems to strike quickly with some projects I have found. Other times, the idea hangs around and I just have not sat still long enough to pull it all together in my head. This time, the wreath in all it’s 1990’s glory hung in my garage for too long, a product of…

Painted mantel in the darkest of greys + Christmas sneak peak!

November 17, 2016

  The painting bug seems to strike at unexpected times. I would think of spring and fall first, as one you are purging and refreshing your space for warmer weather and the other getting cozy and bringing in warmth all around you. But right before Thanksgiving, not something I thought we would tackle. Until I…
