Design Board Tutorial

Tuesday, September 29, 2020

I did something scary over the weekend, I hosted my first ever Design Board Tutorial!  It was scary to put myself out there with people that I don't even know. These are folks that I met in Facebook decorating groups.


My decorating loving friend Cierra wanted advice on what color to paint her shutters. Many of our decorating FB friends suggested black to tie into her black railings.

We finished installing the board and batten, and the NextWall wallpaper in our master bedroom this weekend. It's so good! Here's a sneak peek. 

Gallery Wall and Blue Buffet Cabinet

Saturday, September 12, 2020


We've had this huge empty spot in our foyer since we moved in almost a year ago.  Not anymore! We stumbled upon this beauty in HomeGoods. Although, I think it looks more masculine than feminine so I should probably describe it as handsome. 

Our Bedroom Makeover is Underway

Thursday, September 10, 2020

Our Master Bedroom Makeover is officially underway! This is the wallpaper choice that we decided on and one of the original design boards.


My handsome hubby stumbled across one of these dressers at our local HomeGoods. But there was only one.

Happy Fall Ya'll

Thursday, September 3, 2020

Now that it is officially September I am starting to get the Fall vibes. Our neighbors told us about a tradition that they have called "Forcing Fall."




 You essentially eat chili, apple crumble or any other hearty foods and get out your pumpkin decor. It's their version of dancing outside with your jammies on inside out to get snow aka no school. Although that won't work this year.

My front porch isn't done yet, but I got a good start on it today.


I want to add mums, cabbage and pumpkins but it was 100 degrees here today.

Does it still feel like Summer where you live? Please leave a comment with your location. I would love to hear from you!

DIY Ballard Bowen Stripe Curtain Panels

Wednesday, September 2, 2020

I'm getting a lot of questions about our new Great Room curtains so I figured I would post about them.


I fell in love with these Ballard Designs Bowen Curtain panels, which are on sale this weekend.   They were over my current budget though. I already had 2 pairs of Ritva Curtain Panels from Ikea, so we laid them out in the hallway and marked off every 8 inches. Then we used painter's tape to create very thin stripes. We eyeballed the thin stripes and just ensured they were straight.
