I know that seasonal and holiday decorating is essentially the inherent duty of any home blogger, though as I've admitted several times in the past, it's just not my thing - even when it comes to the mighty crescendo that is Christmas. It's not that I don't adore the...
I never thought I'd be able to create another kid's space I'd love quite so much as my daughter's bedroom...but I may have done just that. In fact, I might even love it more! From the start I was excited about the rustic-earthy-vintage-collected-lodgey feel I was...
You know that old saying, "Too much of a good thing is never a good thing." Well, aside from the fact they forgot to exclude wine...and pistachios...and Friday nights, it's pretty sound advice, and perfectly apt in the case of this cute little desk. As good as its...
I'd walked through my brother's front door dozens of times before though for some reason, one day a few weeks back, it made me pause... ...and kind of burned my eyes. I know he's not alone in having an ugly dated facade along with no real budget and limited aptitude...

When I mentioned to my son that I was planning on painting just the tops and bases of these chairs, I described it to him as giving them all hats and socks. I thought that was kind of cute until he went on to add that "the hats will eat the socks and then the chairs...
I've found stuff! This pendant light on eBay for $72... I knew I wanted something modern and gold and somewhat impactful and this seemed to fit the bill. Let's hope it also fits the space! On Gumtree I came across a set of four Windsor style chairs for $40 (listing...
The furniture is sold! The dining setting fetched $180 and the light went for $20. This gives me a grand total of $200 (I know, don't be too impressed by my amazing math) to overhaul the space. What a nice round figure. In all honestly, I was hoping for a tad more...
