DIY, Decor
Ikea never disappoints. I haven’t been to the actual store (which is approximately 7 minutes from my house. I know) in quite some time, but I need to get there for a few things, so I thought I would do some on-line browsing of their new products to get warmed up. There is some really …
Ok, I’m still in the One Room Challenge. I know it’s only the second week, but congrats to me for not giving up! My first item to check off my list of to do’s was to paint the bedroom. Technically, I can’t actually check it off the list yet because it’s not completely done yet, …
I’ve gotten exactly no where once again in the process of snazzifying my bedroom. One of the first things on the list is to paint the room and I just CAN’T get myself to do it. Can. Not. I noticed today that the One Room Challenge is about to start up for April and I …
I’m going to paint my bedroom. Honestly, I am at some point. I always get a little overwhelmed before a painting project because there seem to be so many steps to the process. I’ve painted many, many rooms in my time, but I still find myself starting and stopping because I’ve forgotten some important step …
I have a small problem with follow through. I went out of my way last year to declare that it was going to be the year of the Bedroom. I cozied up one little corner and I literally did nothing else. In fact, I’ve since borrowed the items I cozied up the corner with and …

Some polymer clay and minimal artistic talents and you could totally make these. Need a polymer clay dish tutorial? …
Okay, my title is a little misleading. This post is more about how to make a *cozy* bed, which for me, means it’s sort of not made. The perfectly made bed for me looks a little rumpled and completely unfussy. I am a lover of function over form first, so you will not see frilly …
A while back I posted a House Tour with before and after pics and a check list for what we want to do for all of the rooms on the first floor and the exterior of the house. I thought it would be fun to revisit the list and see what kind of progress I’ve …
I have a confession to make. Fall is my favorite. Not glorious summer or precious spring. It’s fall. I know it’s the precursor to winter. I know it means less daylight. I know it means chilly mornings and leaves to be raked. I love it anyway. I love the coziness of fall and apple picking …
I have had this little mid century chest that I bought at a yard sale for several years. It was a bit beat up, but I loved the shape of it and it has a good amount of storage. I’m a huge fan of any mid century modern decor. My husband, on the other hand, …
