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”
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”
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”
DIY Farmhouse Sign
I’ve been itching to do another simple, creative DIY project, and today I’m sharing the result! I started a new job at a local elementary school as the bookkeeper. I love the environment and the chance to serve kids and educators, and I’m loving the folks I work with so far, too! Having a newContinue reading “DIY Farmhouse Sign”
Terra Cotta Pot’o’Gold Craft
This week contains St Patrick’s Day! Since it’s a Wednesday night, I am planning some fun themed activities for my youth group. We’re going to learn about some traditional Irish prayers and faith-based sayings, and I wanted to make them a special treat – but one that is pandemic friendly, so it only contains individuallyContinue reading “Terra Cotta Pot’o’Gold Craft”
DIY & Upcycled Coasters
Y’all know I love to get a little crafty, and this week is no exception! I love having unique and handcrafted items in my home, and, while I do have some coasters, they don’t all match or add a ton to my spaces. (Well, my Rae Dunn ones are cute as pie, but since IContinue reading “DIY & Upcycled Coasters”
Easy DIY Kid’s Room Decor
When my little one was born, a wonderfully sweet lady at my church quilted him the most beautiful piece – a toddler-sized bedspread that matched our nursey theme of woodland animals. The original nursery, in my home when I was still married, was in soft pastel colors with woodland animals, and this blanket had brighterContinue reading “Easy DIY Kid’s Room Decor”
