Wow, Crate and Barrel really does me in sometimes- I love the modern yet cozy look of their decor. A few weeks ago saw a photo of a wooden tree collar that stole my heart but I knew I couldn’t spend $100 on something that went under our tree. So I set out to make…
‘Tis the season of inspiration overload and open wallets. About one week into the holiday season, I start to feel that anxiety creeping in about money being spent, activities undone, and the halls still undecked with boughs of holly. It’s hard to keep up with this fleeting season. Every Christmas I try to add to…
If you could climb inside my brain, you would hear a constant buzzing of DIY house project ideas that I want to tackle. In fact, just yesterday we were driving home from church and I said, out of the blue, “I think I’m going to tear up all of the carpet tomorrow.” And Tyler reminded…
In my humble opinion- the more pillows, the better. My only beef with pillows is that they can be expensive! Where can a girl find cheap decorative pillows around here?? My other dilemma is that sometimes I’ll get this idea of what I want only to find out that it doesn’t exist. So I had…
I swear to you guys- when I told Tyler I wanted to hang a pegboard over the dresser in the nursery he looked at me like I’d finally lost my baby brain marbles. He doesn’t spend much time on Pinterest except to look at garage things, so I’m sure he was picturing a standard shop…
We have been keeping busy with lots of mini projects in the nursery! Now that we’re super close to finishing up, I thought I’d update here. If I don’t, my nursery room tour post might be 6 years long and who really wants to hear about our outlet choices during a room tour?? First up…
If you saw our last post about nursery inspiration, you’ll remember the mood board I made for Baby #2’s nursery. Gracing this mood board was an exceptionally beautiful tripod lamp from Target. It was everything I wanted except for the fact that it was expensive… too expensive for our nursery budget. I mean- it was…
What do you do with the wall above your couch? Our old hand-me-down pull out couch works super well, functionally, on living room wall, but the space above the couch had us stumped for a while. I love photo gallery walls, but I already have two (three?) around the house and it would require a…
When we purchased our home, a few pieces were left behind by the previous owners such as a pink teepee, fuzzy bathmats, and landscape blocks. We have gotten rid of most things (i.e. everything listed above), except for this contemporary glam round mirror in our half bathroom downstairs. The half bath has looked exactly like…
Maybe it’s my 30’s approaching, or maybe it’s just a phase, but this year I decided I love houseplants. For Mother’s Day, Tyler and C took me to Home Depot and I picked out a snake plant. Then I found a couple golden pothos… A few succulents and a yucca cane. Now I feel compelled…
