This week I don’t have much progress so let’s talk about bathroom hardware and lighting. I’ve been searching the internet for weeks trying to find cheap hardware that was also brass and didn’t look like it was from my grandma’s kitchen. I had my heart set on this one from myknobs.com and also I think it’s […]
ORC Week 3 Tile Inspiration Pics
Week 3, halfway through the challenge and I think we’re doing well so far. You can catch up here on week 1 and week 2. I’ve been without a toilet for over 2 weeks now and thankfully, I can pee in my own bathroom again. I know, first word problem but seriously, marching down the hall trying not […]
ORC – Week 2 Master Bathroom Makeover
Welcome to week 2 of the ORC! It’s been a productive week here, including ripping out the tile and scraping off the popcorn ceiling. And on a side note, thank goodness for Minnesota winters and neighbors who let us use their ice scraper driveway thingy so that the hubby could get up the wire/thinset cement stuff off […]
ORC Linkup Master Bathroom week 1
It’s that time again, it only happens twice a year, The One Room Challenge or (ORC) as we like to call it. I’ll be linking up again every Thursday for the next 6 weeks. It’s not too late for you to join in as well, it’s a great way to meet other bloggers, see awesome […]
Our Home Then & Now
I was looking for some photos the other day and came across the pics from when our home was for sale by the previous owners. So the furniture pictured in the before photos does not belong to us but it’s fun to see how the home was staged when we looked at it. Scroll down […]
Master Bathroom in need of a makeover
So last fall the Master bedroom got a sexy makeover which we still love and are so glad we did! Beyond the bedroom, the master bathroom didn’t get anything done to it, all I have accomplished in this bathroom is painting the walls and vanity. Apparently I am a slacker because back in 2012 I posted about doing […]
Navy blue is in the house….again
Oh navy blue, I love you and can’t stay away for long. Our first encounter was in my master bedroom, daring, I know! And I loved you then, all bold and blue but after a while you were too much for me and I needed a change. I tried other blues in another room instead but they just weren’t […]
Living Room Dilemmas
Hey friends, so if you follow me on instagram or my facebook page, you know last week I may have painted my front living room. I went wild and crazy, choosing a color without sampling it first and as you know, that’s probably a bad idea. I’m just going to be blunt and blame it […]
Updating the Hallway
It’s been a slow process but we are almost done with the hallway, stairway and entryway trim project. Back on Superbowl weekend (the very beginning of February) we decided to add picture frame moulding to the entryway and stairway. At the last minute we added on the upstairs hallway to our plans. Let me take […]
Living Room & Kitchen Updates
Spring is coming and I’ve been fluffing my nest. After painting a few rooms in my home the next change for me was some furniture. I have rearranged this living room more than a few times lately and now I think I’ve finally figured out how I like it. A few weeks ago at Target […]
