Double-Duty Homeschool Playroom
What You Need for A Homeschool Room Yes! You can have a room pull double-duty as a homeschool room and playroom with just a few organizational ideas and zones with purpose! I love helping homeowners find solutions to their home problems, whether it’s a repair type of problem or a design dilemma! For the homeowners we worked with on this project (for an episode of Today’s Homeowner which you can watch online here!), they didn’t know how to incorporate all of the functionality they needed out of this room. So it just kind of sat there. Repurpose What Doesn’t Work My favorite part about this project is that Emily and…

Pink and Neutral Baby Girl Nursery
Simple Updates to Create Girl Nursery A few changes we made to turn our former hand-me-down, boy nursery into a fresh, pink nursery fit for a tiny princess! Paint Is Great When we found out we were having a boy in late 2016, we didn’t bother painting our then guest room because it was already blue! In fact, most of Mister Gus’s first room was thrown together with what we had around because I felt like I had just finished his big sister’s nursery. So this time around when we found out we were having a girl, the first and only thing I KNEW I wanted to do was paint…

Colorful Kitchen Island Update
How to Make Your Kitchen Stand Out Did you know you can move your kitchen island? That’s exactly what Dad and I did in an episode of Today’s Homeowner to give the homeowners a little more space in front of the fridge. Open It Up Tight refrigerator access wasn’t the only thing closing in this open floor plan home. The first thing guests saw when they walked in was a long half wall that made it super awkward to open the door and let guests in.

Bathroom Planning: Design and Layout
Putting Together All the Elements of a Bathroom The design, style, and layout of our small, master bathroom addition. Traditional meets modern while balancing budget and splurge! Finalize Floor Plans After all of my thoughts and musings on bathroom vanities, showers, toilet rooms, and closets, I had a pretty good idea of the layout and measurements of our bathroom addition. But in order to get a permit for building, you need more official floor plans than a sketch on a piece of scrap paper.?

How Not to Hang Wallpaper
Lessons I Learned While Hanging Wallpaper I made a few mistakes hanging wallpaper for the first time. And I’m sharing them with you so you don’t have to make the same ones! Have Plenty to Go Around I purchased my wallpaper many years ago at a local Goodwill store for around $5. I bought it to use in the back of bookshelves or some other small space as an accent. When it came time to update our 3rd bedroom as a girl nursery, I thought it’d be a sweet, subtle accent on the side of the room with the closets. But since it was old, I’m not even sure it was…

Closet for Dress-Up Clothes
DIY Dresser Makeover to Store Dress-Up Clothes I’ve been doing a lot of taping with Today’s Homeowner lately before I go on maternity leave (in just a few short weeks!). So not many projects have gotten done around my house. BUT I was able to help a friend update/makeover/upcycle, her grandmother’s old chest of drawers into a fun and cute ‘closet’ of sorts for her daughters’ princess dresses!

Fireplace Mantel Printable Plans
Free Printable Plans for Fireplace Mantel 3 years ago on this day, I published an episode on building a beautiful fireplace mantel. Unfortunately, it was a rather large project, despite its appearance, which left a lot of information unshared. BUT today I’m remedying that situation with FREE PRINTABLE PLANS!

Simple Dining Room Improvements
How to Update Dining Room on a Budget A little paint and some molding goes a long way in updating a small-looking dining room! One of my goals for 2019 is to invite people over to our house for dinner. I love cooking. I love feeding people, especially people I don’t have to beg and bribe into eating like 2 certain toddlers who are frequent diners at my house…And I love having friendships we can nurture. And where do meals and dining take place? The dining room, of course! But since I’ve already shared several updates we’ve made to our dining room over the years (like adding trim to a…
