Planning a Kitchen Remodel

written by Lauren

oak kitchen cabinets painted white with General Finishes Antique White milk paint

If you've been following this blog, you probably know that I've taken steps to update the look of my home's kitchen. I've repainted most of the oak cabinets white. (I just have a few more to paint.) I've purchased some new cabinet hardware to install. I've made small changes like organizing drawers and installing inexpensive tile under the kitchen sink. I'd love to change out the flooring and the counter, too. A good blogging friend of mine is doing a complete kitchen remodel -- I have to admit I'm a bit jealous! If you are considering a DIY kitchen remodel or if you are thinking of having Continue reading...

Living Room Gallery Wall — Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop

written by Lauren

A living room gallery wall with many homemade items

  Welcome to the March Pinterest Challenge Blog Hop, hosted by My Pinterventures. 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! So this month,  I chose to update my living room gallery wall. A few years ago I created a simple living room gallery wall. I used Command strips and hooks to hang the items on my gallery wall. The Command products are easy to hang and also make it easy to swap out the items on my living room gallery wall as inspiration hits. I've pinned many living Continue reading...

Puppy gallery wall in an upstairs hallway

Thanks to Photowall.com and VELCRO® Brand HANGables™ for sponsoring this post. I received free product in exchange for my honest review. If you've visited this blog before, you might know that my family has adopted a puppy! Our pup, whom we've named Mochi, is an adorable approximately 4-month-old male Shih Tzu. He has become part of the family! I've been wanting to create a family gallery wall for some time now. I thought that now that there is a new family member in our house, now would be a good time to start that gallery wall. I decided a good space for the gallery wall was Continue reading...

Chalk Painted Jewelry Chest

written by Lauren

gray chalk painted jewelry armoire

I am a Decorart blogger and received free product for the completion of this project. All opinions expressed in this post are 100% my own. As I plan out my projects for 2018, I thought I'd take the time to share one of my favorite past projects -- my chalk painted jewelry armoire. The jewelry chest belonged to my grandmother, and now that it has been repainted, it holds a place of honor in my home's upstairs hallway. Updating Furniture with Chalk Paint I never thought I'd refinish furniture -- I am more of an artsy craftsy person. But after using Americana Decor® Chalky Continue reading...

Concrete Block Raised Garden Bed

written by Lauren

cinder block raised garden bed filled with mums

  Over a year ago, I created an outdoor seating area in my yard with a few concrete/cinder blocks and some wood. Sadly the top of the bench didn't last long. Just before this summer, the wood warped, and the adhesive that held the wood to the concrete block base of the bench dried up. I debated whether to fix the bench or find another use for the concrete blocks. My family and I never used the bench much, so I nixed the idea of rebuilding it. (Even though the bench was pretty!) I thought about building a fire pit with the blocks, but my daughters didn't think we'd use it much. Continue reading...

DIY Fall Gallery Wall

written by Lauren

DIY fall gallery wall

I love decorating my home for the seasons. My decor isn't always planned -- sometimes I go where my whims take me. Recently, a trip to my local Target store spurred a new DIY fall gallery wall in my home's living room! For me, my home is one big craft/art project! Luckily my hubby doesn't complain about it much. When I shop at Target, I love stopping at my local store's dollar spot area. On one recent trip, I was lucky enough to snag an inexpensive blank pallet-style wooden sign, a wooden "Family" cutout, some silver and gold fall-themed transfer stickers, and some wooden autumn leaves. I Continue reading...
