Oh boy. This is a makeover to top all other makeovers that I’ve done. This tiny bathroom in our master bedroom has been hidden away because it was so ugly. Okay, it wasn’t terrible, but it just didn’t feel like me. Please enjoy this guide on how I completed a $100 bathroom remodel.
The real slim shady song has been STUCK in my head all day. I have no idea why. I also have a terrible headache because my coffee this morning was 20% coffee and 80% sugar & whipped cream. Oh well, It’s the weekend. I’m back to distract you with my $100 closet remodel (otherwise known as the February house project that is just now being written). If you like organization and terrible before photos but also really good after photos, stick around.
Sometimes the DIY bug will hit and I need a project to do. I love quick but big projects that give you instant gratification – I think that’s why I love building furniture. Most recently I was able to redo our master bedroom for less than $100! Today I’ll be showing you how to prep and install drop cloth curtains.
I can’t believe it’s already time for all things pumpkin! It’s still pretty hot outside here in OKC but hopefully a cool down will happen soon. I am getting excited to break out my scarves, sweaters and booties. More importantly, I ordered a bunch of new fall clothes for Isla and I can’t wait until its cool enough to put her in a cute little sweater. See what I bought her from H&M here. Thanks for stopping by to check out our Fall decor for your porch ideas! These easy to recreate ideas will have your porch looking cozy in no time!
Heidi-ho, Neighbor! (Anyone else watch old re-runs of Home Improvement and miss the 90s?).
I haven’t had time to build anything in a while to share with you guys. I’ve been helping my mom redo her kitchen, taking a little break from blogging, Isla had a health scare in April and I haven’t felt like writing anything, if i’m being honest. But I thought I’d tell you about Isla’s toy box that I built for her first birthday! This DIY Toy Box offers tons of storage, which makes cleaning her room a breeze!
She turned one in October and I really needed a practical way to store her toys and books. We were having to get creative and stuff toys all over the place to put them away.
I had been wanting to build her a toy box but I knew it would have to have a built in bookshelf as well as storage for bigger items. I have been following Ana White for years and I had seen these plans before.
For Christmas this year, my mom got me such a cool and unique gift!
I can’t wait to show you guys! This post will be short and sweet. I just want to show you guys that there is a little shop in Northern Illinois that will send you goodies for you and your home! Whoop! Whoop!
I got the January box from Urban Farmgirl. Urban Farmgirl is located in Rockford, Illinois and it’s a little shop that has just about everything farmhouse style. It’s completely wonderful and I’ve visited twice. I want one of everything that they sell and both times that I’ve been, I brought home timeless pieces of decor that I love and that will work in lots of different spaces.

Is anyone else super excited about being Santa this year? I am so looking forward to seeing Isla open presents and starting Christmas traditions with her. I’m also really pumped that so many of you have read my posts. It means so much. You have no idea. December is only a day away and I think I’m going to try and do blog-mas this year and publish a post for every day of December. I really want to document our lives while Isla Rose is little and Christmas is such a special time, so expect lots of new content if you are subscribed!
I’m writing today to let you know about a fun project I’ve been working on! I don’t get to build very often because our daughter goes to bed at 6:30 and power tools are loud but I was able to steal away for a little bit and throw this vintage looking sled together! I started building furniture in 2012 and almost everything in my house was built by myself and Evan. Carpentry can be very relaxing and my goal is to help those of you that might be intimidated by using power tools or saws. I hope you give it a try!
