Week 5 and I really don’t have much new to report on the bathroom from the last week. I did repaint the vanity Desert Twilight which is what I used on my lower kitchen cabinets. It seemed like a good match with the gray stripe on the shower curtain but now, I’m not so […]
Spring on the Front Door
The snow has melted, the temps were in the 60’s this week and I think we can safely say, Spring has arrived in Minnesota! So thankful for the sunshine and warmth the past few days! Now it’s time to bring some spring to the outside of our home. We live in a subdivision which […]
Kids Bathroom Week 2
It’s week two of the One Room Challenge and it’s fun to see the different stages the bloggers are in, some are in full demo mode, some still settling on a plan or picking out fabric and paint. You can see my week one post here. I am prettying up this orangestrosity of a bathroom. […]
Favorite Gray Paint Colors in Our Home
So in case you haven’t noticed, I have an obsession with gray walls in my home. I thought I’d share with you today what gray colors I use in my home. One of the reasons I love the gray is that it can be a barely there color on the wall and it goes […]
Black Interior Doors
The other day when I looked at my powder room door and so how gross, dirty and blah it looked, I grabbed my paint brush, some black ACE Cabinet, Door & Trim paint and decided I’d had enough. I already have a few black doors in our home, the french doors and also the insides […]
Chalkboard Subway Tile Backsplash & My Kitchen

Which reminded me of The Nester’s chalkboard fireplace that I have always loved. Then I did a quick […]
Black French Doors – Updating our Home
This past fall we decided to finally make our formal living room my hubby’s office and a library/music area. This room is large and we have some great plans for it but first we needed some french doors so my man could work without hearing all the household noises. Lowes was our go to […]
My Pretty Pantry
Fall is in there air and apparently it makes me want to nest. I have been finishing up projects and starting a few new ones the past week since the kids started school. On a whim the other day I decided to paint the pantry which led to also painting the mudroom. Don’t ask. I […]
The Kitchen Cabinets are Painted!
After my Rustoleum Cabinet Transformations Failure, I needed to finish up the kitchen cabinets before we left on vacation. Last night when we should have been going over the packing list and stuffing more goldfish into snack bags, we were instead putting cabinet drawer fronts and doors back on the frames in the kitchen. For […]
Painting the Kitchen Chairs
With only 12 days to go before we hit the road and tour some of the US of A, painting the bottom half of the kitchen cabinets seemed like a great idea to me. Too bad my husband didn’t agree with me and most of my friends. So I listened to reason for once and […]
