Welcome friends! It’s my favorite time of year, the ORC! This will be my 5th time participating and I can’t wait to see what everyone is doing. Here’s a quick recap of a few rooms I’ve done in the past, one being our Sexy Master Bedroom and another favorite, our Sexy Master Bathroom. Now […]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
No, I’m not talking about fall, or pumpkin barf spice everything. I am talking about the One Room Challenge! For this challenge, we will be tackling the front/formal living room.

A new venture
Last summer, I had an idea for a business, a space where people could come together to create. We would have a variety of classes and my wonderfully creative friends who all share different passions and abilities in art would be able to share their passion with others.

ORC Week 6 – Reveal of the Outdoor Oasis
It’s reveal day! AH! Six short weeks ago I decided to start the ORC and use our deck for the “room.” We had to restain our deck this year so we figured it would be a good time to really make the deck somewhere that we wanted to hang out. With springtime in Minnesota […]
