A Small Bedroom Update
Just a few pictures of our bedroom – these are already semi-outdated considering we have changed our comforter to a plain white one we found on black Friday (for $20!). I also have some pillows on the bed now… but the artwork over our bed hasn’t changed, and that’s the focus of this post! The … Read more
The Kitchen Finale… Finally!
This Christmas break has given us a bunch of extra time to work on projects around the house. It felt great to get moving on the house again since it’s been a while since we’ve done anything big! We decided to tackle the kitchen and finish it up… if you remember, we left off after … Read more
Dining Room Progress
So far I’ve shared progress reports on the living room (but it’s outdated – look for an update soon), guest bedroom, the outside, and the kitchen. But there’s a very important room in between those that I haven’t shared at all – the dining room. As you saw in my recent post, we’ve made a … Read more
Free Lampshade Re-do

A Short Sneak Peak
Here’s a look at what’s been going on around our house lately… Extremely exciting progress is being made!!! But it’s not quite finished… of course there will be pictures to come when it is
A Presentable Bedroom
Yet another clean room – still without much in the way of decorations, but at least it’s clean and free of boxes! And below is a sweet little nightstand a friend gave to us after rescuing it from the trash (thank you!). It’s in need a makeover (I’m thinking paint…), but it’s working great … Read more
Now That’s Some Progress
Finally – “current” pictures that actually looks presentable! And the other side… It’s amazing the motivation that having company over brings!
