Hey my friends!!! Another week down and another day closer to Christmas. I seriously cannot believe that 2019 is right around the corner. I don't know about anyone else, but 2018 was a little rough at times so I'm ready for a fresh new start for sure. I hope you all get everything you want out of 2019! I think it's going to be a good one. I wanted to get on here real quick and show you a peek into my living room this year for Christmas! We love this cozy room of ours and decorating it for Christmas just makes it all the more cozy...
Hey friends!! This month is such a whirlwind for my family and I... We have lots going on. It started out with my home being on the local Holiday Homes Tour, next weekend we have my son's 4th Birthday Party, after that is my work's big Christmas event and last is Christmas... So much to do in one month and that doesn't include the everyday life stuff, and opening a shop!!! Terrible timing on my part but the chaos is kind of what I live for. I get my down time... In the bathroom... hiding from everyone. Anyway, I wanted to pop on tonight and share pics of my bedroom styled for Christmas! I went a little non traditional, but that's kinda my style... 
Hello! It's Monday, some people hate Mondays, I personally love them now days because I can stay home with my kiddos and start a new week. We use our Monday's to get ready for school (my son only goes two days a week) clean the house, stay home and relax before the work week. I always try to take some time to myself to decorate a little, especially with the holidays around the corner. I did this little tree display a while ago but I thought I'd share it today with you because I love it and it gives my laundry room that little Christmas kick that it needs. Let's go see the mini tree display!...
Hey, loves! I finally got back to my DIY loving lifestyle recently. I was at the Walmart, buying 54654623 things I didn't need and I came across this $5 contact paper. I had seen people using it on counter tops and I wanted to do it because, let's face it, actual marble counter tops are insanely pricey and we're for sure not ready to go gutting our kitchen anytime soon. My dingy fake wood, laminate counter tops had started to make me twitch a little because they had stains, burn marks, scratches, etc on them and I wanted a fresh new look. I decided to just try it out and I'm SO glad I did. I have lots of tips for you so if you're thinking about doing this fun project, read this first!...
Hello, friends! I hope you're having a good week. We're on the down hill slope to the weekend!!! It's snowing today here in Missouri and I don't know how I feel about it. I love me some snow but I have a feeling it's going to be a long cold winter. I feel like we just came out of winter! Summer for sure didn't last long here in old MO. Anyway, today I wanted to share a new collection I am now obsessed with thanks to my Mother-in-law...
Hi, friends! Welcome back! I'm hopping on here quick today to give you a little sneak peek into our master bedroom. I have been very SLOWLY working on it. I did a big makeover on it not long ago and quickly fell out of love, I know, the dramaaaaa... I tend to get an idea in my head and just decide to execute it right then and there and it doesn't turn out the exact way I want because I didn't take my time in choosing every item carefully...
Hi Friends! Happy Monday... I actually don't mind Monday's anymore now that I have some extra time in the week at home. I used to feel so overwhelmed on the weekends trying to get stuff done before the new week when I worked full time but now I don't stress because I have two extra days to get those things done and blog more! So happy about that. Life has changed so much lately. Once kids get into sports and school it seems like all we do is run around ALL THE TIME TO EVERY PLACE EVER! I feel like a zombie. Props to all you parents out there!...
This post has been a long time coming! I got these lockers a few months ago but never got around to posting about them. I did share a picture on my INSTAGRAM and FACEBOOK but wanted to share where I got them and how I decided on turning it into a pantry! I love this little corner even more now with these old green lockers. I've been trying to add in some color in my home and this muted green is definitely one of my faves...
Happy Easter weekend!!! It was a beautiful day today... It has been so gloomy but the sun came out today for a bit and it was almost 60 degrees, it's what I live for!! Windows open and kids playing outside... UNFORTUNATELY it's supposed to snow tomorrow!!! WHAT?! So we're doing an egg hunt inside... Still gotta keep the kiddos happy. I thought I'd share how I'm decorating my table this year for Easter because I'm having family over for lunch. Its super simple and I just used items I already had on hand to make it easy... 
Hi friends! I have a super simple post for you today all about how we've been framing out our windows. When we bought this house, there was no baseboards or trim or anything. It was kind of nice because we were able to pick these things out ourselves and go with the style we wanted. I want to show you an easy and CHEAP way to update your windows and make them look larger and prettier without breaking the bank...
