Storage Closet Turned Office Nook

As I mentioned in last week’s blog post, our new house has an office for Jake and a designated playroom area for little man, but there wasn’t a clear space just for me. When Jake realized that I didn’t have my own designated space, he was concerned and wanted me to have a place toContinue reading “Storage Closet Turned Office Nook”

Thrifted & DIY Chair Upgrade

If you follow me on social media, you know that the past few months have been a total whirlwind. I’ve changed jobs, we bought a house, are DIY-ing our way through a fairly significant refresh or remodel of the house, and Jake proposed a couple weekends ago. It’s been BUSY over here, y’all. The houseContinue reading “Thrifted & DIY Chair Upgrade”

Simple At-Home Charcuterie Board

People say charcuterie boards are just grown-up lunchables… and as a true 90’s kid, I am 100% okay with that! Before I jump into how I make my at-home charcuterie boards, let’s get one thing straight – the pronunciation! In every conversation where these come up, people STRUGGLE to figure out how they’re supposed toContinue reading “Simple At-Home Charcuterie Board”

Cheese & Barbecue Smothered Chicken

I’ve recently pulled one of my old recipes back out to the forefront of my kitchen. My cheese + barbecue smothered chicken was a dish I made often when I moved into my first apartment and then was married to my first husband. I hit a rut recently, making a lot of the same dishesContinue reading “Cheese & Barbecue Smothered Chicken”

Hot Wheels Backyard Birthday Bash

Okay, fellow momma hens…! Who can relate? MY BABY IS GROWING UP TOO FAST! I am SO shocked at how BIG my little one is. He turns three today, and I canNOT believe that the gummy-bear-looking baby from my sonograms is now a small child. Where did my baby go? I didn’t believe my ownContinue reading “Hot Wheels Backyard Birthday Bash”

Pizza Crescent Rolls

We are a pizza roll family in my house. Maybe it’s because Jake and I are both 90’s kids and they’re nostalgic – or maybe it’s because we’re snack-lovin’ people… But no matter what the cause is, we’re a snacking crew when it comes to streaming shows or watching a game, and my easy crescentContinue reading “Pizza Crescent Rolls”

Front Porch Refresh

The new house is continually being worked on and improved, and I’m so so happy. It just feels like HOME. Pretend I’ve inserted a heart-eyed emoji here, y’all – that’s how in love this millennial is with her little brick basement ranch. We have little man’s birthday party coming up soon – like, in lessContinue reading “Front Porch Refresh”

DIY Faux Succulent Wreath

I love a good seasonal wreath – but I REALLY love love love a wreath that can be used in several seasons. Having décor pieces that can be kept up for more than a season – or even year round – makes housekeeping a little easier – and even better if it’s affordable! If youContinue reading “DIY Faux Succulent Wreath”

Entryway Décor

In our new home, our front door opens right into the living room. However, the previous owners (or, I guess, ONE of the previous owners) continued the kitchen flooring to, apparently, give it an entryway vibe. To help with the flow of the space, we’ve decided to continue to use the space in that way.Continue reading “Entryway Décor”
