Bathroom Makeover – ORC Week 1

written by Lauren

Tween bathroom in sage green

Today is an exciting day - it’s the first day of the One Room Challenge (ORC). It's also the day I share my plans for a bathroom makeover in my home. This year marks the first time I am joining this challenge. I've thought about jumping in a few times, but was hesitant to join because the challenge involves a lot of work in a little bit of time!   In the challenge, 20 design bloggers and hundreds of guest participants (like me) work to transform a room or space in the span of six weeks. The challenge, which takes place in April and September, was conceived and is hosted by Linda of Continue reading...

written by Lauren

how to glue and frame a jigsaw puzzle

This post contains Amazon affiliate links. Welcome to the March Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop. The purpose of this Pinterest Challenge is to motivate all the participants of this hop (and you too) to not just pin, but to make it happen! This month, I chose to Mod Podge and frame a 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzle that my daughters completed together. The puzzle sat on our big farmhouse kitchen table for a while. I had to figure out how to glue and frame the puzzle, and I also fought off an awful cold virus!  Once I was healthy again, it was time to tackle that puzzle!
