You can check last week’s update here, design plan and project list here. It’s going to be a jam packed few weeks as we’re over half way and some of our larger projects took more time than we anticipated. […]

We made massive headway this week for the One Room Challenge sponsored by Better Homes and Gardens on our exterior refresh. I’m so excited about our progress, this transformation is already huge, and we aren’t even close to done. Love when a vision really starts coming together. Check out last week’s post here to see the design plan and […]
Last week I announced on IG I decided to join in on the One Room Challenge a week late. Last spring, we did our patio for the ORC and it was the best experience! The ORC is a design challenge for bloggers, designers, and DIYers to tackle a space over the course of several weeks hosted by Better Homes […]
Back when we did our living room refresh I was obsessed with this gorgeous reclaimed wood West Elm console table, just not the price tag it carries. Like usual we sought out to DIY a major dupe!

The larger they are of course the pricier and more challenging they are to come by. Like most projects I knew we could make this style coffee table ourselves, […]

I’ve felt an overwhelming push to share my thoughts on creating our own haven. I’ve always been passionate about home, helping you create a home you love. Now, I really hope I’m able to encourage you to […]
After making a few switches, moving some furniture pieces around I needed a new entry table. I wanted a simpler console table with clean lines. We came up with this table for $40 only using two boards, a really easy build. Using two 2x12x10 boards we constructed this table for about $40. It could easily […]
