Did you miss any of my posts in January + February? Facebook can be so hit and miss showing my posts to people and everyone gets busy so I thought I might start doing these monthly recap posts again. They help me see what I accomplished that month too – sometimes it doesn’t feel like […]
New Blinds in the Master Bedroom
A Master Bedroom post – could it be??! I took off time from working on the bedroom during the holidays and a insanely busy December, then I got bronchitis for 2 weeks in January and the winter blues sort of hit. And the master bathroom has been an easier-to-accomplish and easier-to-see-the-finished-pretty-after so I have […]
Curtains in the Master Bathroom
The master bathroom is almost done and I am so excited to have it done and move on to finish the master bedroom and work in other areas of the house. So here’s where I started with for curtains back in December – outdated, hadn’t been touched in over 10 years, beige from floor to […]
Taking your TV to your tablet or smartphone
Disclosure: Post and giveaway sponsored by XFINITY, but all opinions are my own. Please see below for additional disclosure. I don’t know about you but I LOVE technology… I love finding a new app or feature or a even new product like a tablet/smartphone and figuring out the amazing things they can do. I mean […]
When sometimes trying to be frugal turns out to be a big fat FAIL
DIY, decorating, being a homeowner, and trying to be frugal isn’t always easy. And sometimes it just fails… I don’t want to give you this rosy picture that I buy Pottery Barn furniture at yard sale prices to furnish my home and it looks like a catalog and is always perfectly neat and tidy at […]
Installing IKEA EKBY shelves in the bathroom
One more project crossed off the list in the bathroom! Just 1-2 more to go and I can share the final reveal and before/after shots. And can I just tell you that both my husband and I are enjoying this room so much… It has changed so much in the last 6 weeks and honestly […]
How to frame out that builder basic bathroom mirror (for $20 or less!)
So this is the way our master bathroom looked at the beginning of December. Don’t stare too long or the beige from floor to ceiling may burn your eyeballs… Then I painted the entire bathroom in Magnet by Behr Marquee (same color as our master bedroom), changed out the light fixture with a freebie from […]
House tour: Molly from Pennies’nGrace
I love a good house tour, don’t you? And especially a house tour where I feel like I feel like the style and furnishings is attainable for me. While I love taking a peek at fancy, expensive homes – that just won’t ever be in our budget or lifestyle and isn’t even my style. So […]
Thrift store shopping spree in Charleston, SC
If you followed me on facebook or Instagram this weekend you know I did a massive thrift store shopping trip and you all begged to see my finds so I thought I would share them with you today. My husband and I went to visit some friends this weekend that live outside Charleston, SC – […]
The one thing I don’t think I could live without (and don’t know anyone that doesn’t have it)
Disclosure: Post and giveaway sponsored by XFINITY, but all opinions are my own. Please see below for additional disclosure. Internet… In the 21st century it has become pretty much essential like water and electricity. I honestly don’t think I know ANYONE that doesn’t have internet – even if they don’t pay for internet service at […]
