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
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
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 new home office + how to faux wallpaper your walls
Hello gorgeous, I have missed you! We have spent every waking moment (when not at work) working around our new place painting and getting fix-its done before the rainy weather arrives. I’m saving a few things for winter that are inside that desperately need a redo, like our kitchen that is getting a much-needed pantry….
Modern Bohemian Master Bedroom progress
Have you found yourself smitten with a color immediately and you can think of nothing else than it being on your wall? While we are barely making a dent on the to do list at our new place, I had to eek out some time to make the master bedroom feel relaxing. I wasn’t…

For the past ten years I have rented the home we lived in. It was a lovely home with lots of memories, but we were ready to begin a new chapter. So we looked a lot online first, and wanting to keep the kids in the same school limited our area. The real estate…
DIY faux tiled laundry folding station
I am sure you have heard the story of the frog in the boiling water. You know… When things begin he is just a frog living his frog life and finds himself in some water. In this case it’s a laundry room, not a pot of boiling water, but the analogy is accurate. Over time,…
Romantic farmhouse style master bedroom
Hi friend, this post has been a long time coming. Not only because our master bedroom was in desperate need of a makeover, but also from the five of us taking turns with a couple nasty colds the past couple of months. We appear to be on the mend, the sun is out today, and…
How to make a wooden wall sconce-fixer upper style
Remember the left over pre-fab white bead board from the back of the farmhouse church pew? Yep, we found a way to use the last of it. I have wanted to make something I can hang these Mason jar holders on for quite a while, but to date have just incorporated them on…
October Vignettes- Apples + aqua dining table setting
While we are still having some warm weather in the Pacific Northwest, Fall is certainly upon us. The hydrangeas have turned from their gorgeous blues to soft green and pink tones. The evenings have a chill that creeps in a little earlier than it did a few weeks ago.
