Firstly, I have to express my gratitude for such an amazing response to my last post. Given I almost didn't publish it I was completely overwhelmed by the comments and emails. Thank you all. When I shared my parent's bathroom refresh last month many of you asked to...
So, I know it's basically December and publishing a post without any hint of pine needles or flocked snow is seemingly akin to impudence, though let's be rebels! Over the past few weeks I've been chipping away at Riley's bedroom re-do, with the most recently completed...
Have you ever come across a really lovely (and super affordable) old bed only to pass it up because it was missing its rails and slats? That's almost what I did when I was hunting for Riley's "big boy bed". You may have heard this story before... I stumbled upon an...
