A few weeks ago I posted my kitchen plans, paint the top cabinets white and the bottom cabinets gray. I purchased two Rustoleum Cabinet Transformations Kits a few months ago and couldn’t wait to get started. This is not my first rodeo with painting cabinets or wood for that matter. You can read about how […]

Master Bedroom Update (again) Painted Nightstands
One day this room will be complete and the title will read Master Bedroom Complete! You won’t even know what to do with yourself because this room has been progressing since November. Really I’m so close to being done, I just need some artwork and to figure out a bedskirt. The last update from a […]
Guest Post: The Blooming Hubs Rants about "The Wood"
OK, it’s high-time that I took over Ange’s job of blogging for once. Yup, that’s right, the Blooming Hubs is doing a not-so-hostile takeover of a Blooming Hydrangea post. Don’t tell my most darling wife, whom we all have come to love (hey, I loved her first y’all, just sayin’)! While I have the podium and before […]
Master Bedroom Progress
Good Afternoon friends! I am really excited to show you what we did in the closet this past weekend. (Get your minds out of the gutter, people). This is our closet before my great idea.

Progress De-Oakifying My House
Good Morning Peeps! I am so happy that I have knocked out another room on my loooonnnnnggggg list of rooms that need trim paint. It started with the entryway and cloffice area and then the powder room. Now I’ve worked my way into the family room and kitchen. After looking through my photos trying to […]
Two lamps for less than $15? Score!
I rearranged our family room the other night with some help from my hubs and his muscles. Does anyone else pronounce it muskles because I was thinking that in my head as I was typing this. Anyways, I love how the family room is coming together with the console behind the couch. I knew it […]
Powder Room Gone Wild
I am so excited for another round of Roomspiration!!!! SJ at Homemaker on a Dime is featuring bathrooms today and I’m finally going to join even! It’s technically Saturday morning but I like to be fashionably late and the link party is open until Oct. 14th so I’m actually on time, right? The hubby just […]
How I Painted our Oak Trim White
UPDATE: It has been almost a year and half since I painted the trim on our main floor and banister, the rest of the house has been at least a year as well. It is holding up extremely well considering we have 4 kids and 2 dogs. I have also painted our kitchen cabinets […]
