Today I’m sharing how we installed wall moulding in the nursery. It’s added the perfect amount of character to the bare walls, really bringing this room to the next level.  We’ve been hard at work getting ready for baby girl! It’s been a real team effort, but her room is looking so good and things…

Today I’m sharing how we customized our Ikea Pax dining room cabinet. It’s the perfect way to add character to Ikea cabinets while staying on budget.  Our kitchen is small. We don’t have a ton of storage, and that’s something our entire house lacks as well. Getting creative and adding places to store our items…

This DIY Towel Hook Rack is the perfect addition to our master bathroom and a great way to store towels! We’ve been busy working in our master bathroom and I was hoping to be able to share the full reveal with you at the end of the month, but since I haven’t had the easiest…

Are you ready for a big transformation? Our DIY staircase makeover has made a huge difference for our home! If there’s been one project that’s been glaringly obvious that we need to finish, it’s our stairs. When we were knee deep in demo’ing the house, we went through and removed all the old, super gross…

We’ve been doing some work in our master bathroom and it’s coming along beautifully. When coming up with the design plan for this bathroom, I really wanted to add some extra character, especially with the bathroom being such a small space. Wall moulding was an essential part of my plan, and we just recently installed…

Let’s just take a minute to celebrate the accomplishment of installing and painting our interior doors! It’s been a long road getting here, but it’s such a sweet victory in having every single interior door installed! Let me just tell you, you’ll never fully appreciate the function and beauty of a door until you’ve lived…

There are a few existing things in our house that we’re temporarily keeping until the time comes to upgrade and replace them… our front door and the stair hand rail being two of them. In order to stay and blend in, they both desperately needed painted. I’ll share more about the handrail later, but when…

Picking out flooring for the new house was one of the very first things Todd and I started doing once we bought the house. Even though there was so much demo and other things we had to start in on, I wanted to make sure we had plenty of time to source flooring we liked….

When we were looking at vanity options for the hall bathroom, I kept going back to the idea of having a floating vanity. I liked the subtle, modern vibe it would add to the bathroom with some of the more traditional items we’d be incorporating as well. I also wanted a vanity that had a…

When we initially bought the Willow house, it was really stinky. It wasn’t really a smell you could identify as just one thing, but rather layers of odd smells combining into this gross odor. As soon as you walked in the door it hit you, and everyone who walked through it in the beginning would…

Well, I think it’s safe to say you all like the DIY framed tree print in the dining room as much as I do! I’ve been getting a bunch of questions on how I made it, where I got the print, what size it is, and more! It was incredibly easy, and the longest part…

The guest bedroom is moving along, which is so nice to see since the room sat as a complete danger (aka, junk) zone for months… When I decided to give this room a much needed refresh, one of the elements I knew I wanted to keep, was the headboard. I originally made it 10 plus…

A few weeks ago, I shared how we updated our hallway with board and batten… talk about a transformation to the space. One day it was a plain and basic hallway, the next it was bright and full of character. But shortly before we added the board and batten, we decided it was time to…

Our house really only has one hallway. I guess that’s what you get when you have such a big, open floorplan… all the rooms seem to flow right into each other. And other than adding a new rug, I haven’t done a single thing to this hallway since we built the house. What?! So today,…

Cabinet hardware is always such a huge way of transforming a piece of furniture, or an entire space. Thing is though, cabinet hardware can be down right expensive. Lately, I’ve been loving all things leather, so when it came down to finalizing the cabinet hardware for the new office desk and filing cabinet, I couldn’t stop…

All week I’ve been sharing our tutorial on how we’ve built our new office desk, and today I’m sharing the last part, which is all about the finishing details. I couldn’t be happier with how the office desk has turned out. It solves so many of our past office issues just by providing a bigger…

Since the tutorial for our office desk is pretty lengthy, I decided to break it up into a few different parts. On Monday, I shared how we built the base, making a riser for the filing cabinet and determining the overall height of the desk. Today, we’re talking about how we chose, and attached the…

When we began the design process for the office, I wanted to make sure I’d have plenty of work space, as well as storage. The best way to do that, was to maximize the room by having the desk run along two of the walls, giving me plenty of work space. Because this is a…

When I was designing the space for the office, one of my major focuses, was making sure we had plenty of storage space. Our current office lacks in that area, and it seemed papers, projects, tools and office supplies were stacking up in every corner. I tried so hard to manage the chaos, but without…

More details on our breakfast nook today! After we added the new stainless steel table to the room, I knew our old lantern style light had to go. It didn’t fit the shape and style of the table, and it felt too small since the new table was much longer in size. And to be…

I’m pretty excited about today’s post! I mentioned last week that I felt the house was feeling stale, and that I had some fresh ideas for a few different areas in the house. One of those rooms was the dining room. I’ve always loved our dining room. The shelves, the layout, all of it… but…

I’m back today with another update on our home office… the closet doors! When we started converting the guest bedroom into our home office, I knew the closet doors would need some help. When we built the house a few years ago, we didn’t want to spend any extra money on fancy closet doors. We…

When we first started talking about moving the office into the guest bedroom, one of the first projects I wanted to tackle, was trimming out the two windows. When we built the house a few years ago, we didn’t have extra money in the budget to trim out each and every window, so we opted…

Our new office space is coming together beautifully, but when we started with the blank and bare guest room (read more about the room switch here), I knew I wanted something to help transform the space. I wanted something different. I wanted a place where I would feel inspired to work everyday. I wanted to…
