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!

Moving Right Along with the Bedroom Refresh!
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
