Hi there! As I shared in the last post, we successfully convinced my younger daughter that a bedroom re-do was in order. I have happily begun the planning process! Since at one point, my gal mentioned yellow and some of the accessories I already have a re gray, those two colors (at least right now)… Read More
Bedroom Refresh Reveal!
Hi y’all! Today won’t be overly wordy as I feel the photos my friend and amazing photographer Mark took say it all! The stripes on the wall and the bed are from a previous room re-do. Fun fact: the bed was my mom’s growing up! Another fun fact: my husband thought the stripes on the… Read More
Herb Your Enthusiasm about this Project!
Today I did a fun little Pinterest-inspired project. Here is my inspiration: I taped off a few pots that were already planted on my deck: I painted my little squares with chalkboard paint. And am so pleased with my fun little pun pots!

My daughter was going to be out for the day soI decided that would be the perfect time to re-arrange the furniture in her room! That went very smoothly, so I decided I’d patch and touch up the walls wherever something was hanging. I was on a roll and the house was empty so I decided… Read More

Dressing things up!
I have a great husband. On the way home from a family event, fully dressed in a suit and tie (& me in a dress & heels), I made him trash pick a dresser that I thought would be perfect for our navy & gray guest room. We had a white dresser in the room,… Read More
Chalk it up to a happy accident!
Why would I buy this painting? I’m not sure I knew at the time, but it was not for the painting. But I am always drawn to chalkboards and have been playing with gold paint a lot lately….so I brought it home from my favorite shop, you know, the one I’m always talking about? I… Read More
