Springtime Entryway

This homeowner still loved many of her entryway pieces, but just was tired of looking at them everyday. There is no better season than SPRING, to freshen things up!

I love setting my homeowners up for easy seasonal transitions with each design I complete. For this space all she has to do is replace the bouquet in the vase. Life Hack: Use a fuzzy pipe cleaner around your flowers & a cheap dollar store vase to keep your arrangement in place while they’re being stored from season to season. All you have to do is poke them back in the vase! I am all about working smarter, not harder!

(Yes I got too excited to snap a picture and hadn’t cut my tags off… again)

$68 Farmhouse Dining Room Makeover

My wonderful sister in law Catrina texted me to see what I could do to her dining room using a limited budget. She was about 39 weeks pregnant, so decorating wasn’t top priority, but if we could do something small she was open to a redo!

• Since we only spent $68 on this makeover I had to prioritize what would make the biggest impact. I decided that would be the wall when you first walk in the room!
  • I found the shutters at our local habitat for humanity, and I just painted them a creamy white.
  • Catrina already had that awesome old window laying outside, so I snatched that beauty up and gave it a fresh coat of paint!
  • The Wreath is a custom job from Ra-Ra Wreaths.
  • I fastened the “fresh” sign Catrina had picked up at the Magnolia Market (I know, lucky lil ducky!) to the wreath using floral wire.
• The next item of biggest impact was the chairs. These were hand-me-downs from our parents. It matched my mother’s dining room, but not my sister in laws. So we gave it a fresh coat of white paint and reupholstered them with some Hobby Lobby striped duck cloth!
• I moved the Hoosier cabinet to the opposite wall to give the room more lighting

This is a success story to the message I feel like I preach on a daily basis. You don’t have to spend a ton of money to make your house look amazing! Granted Catrina had invested in some great large pieces, that made the makeover very inexpensive. But she didn’t buy them all in one day. It’s a process!

Farmhouse Redesign

This room was a fun challenge. The client wanted a farmhouse living room, but needed a little help getting there. We had a limited budget, but that wasn’t a problem! We only spent $140 on the following before and after photos!

Now the room isn’t totally finished, but I have equipped the homeowner with a shopping list to continue the search and completion of the room on a budget.

After I finished styling the room my client walked in and said “Wow! It looks so different, but I already owned most of this!” That was the best compliment she could have given me on my work! I have said this countless times, use what you have first and then fill in the holes! You would be amazed of the transformation of the pieces you already own!

Farmhouse Bathroom Makeover

Today’s makeover has me SO SO GIDDY! This is a farmhouse styled bathroom I recently designed. The bathroom vanity was an antique dresser that we transformed into a sink! The light fixture was purchased from Home Depot.

Because the bathroom is small I kept the accessories to a minimum. Using even the window as space for “wall art.” The largest items were purchased at antique stores, this keeps the space fresh and original.

2017 Fall Color Trends

While I don’t want to say goodbye to Summer, it is that time to begin the discussion of Fall trends! The colors for this fall are…. (drum-roll please) GREEN, BLUSH PINK & NAVY!

My color loving heart could not be more excited. I love everything Joanna Gaines touches because she is amazing, but white is going out and we will begin to see color come back into our lives!

Take a look at this bedroom I styled. It perfectly encompasses all things trending this fall! (In a perfect world I would have included blush pink bed sheets, but ya know, budget cuts)

Are you inspired for Fall? Are you ready to bust out the Pumpkins yet? Comment your favorite season below!

| Easy Kitchen Wall Art |

Lately if I see a wood chopping block at the thrift store, I buy it. It may or may not becoming a problem for me. Seriously though, I have stacks on stacks of these bad boys. So this week I decided I needed to do something with them. I hope you find inspiration in my crafty-diy evening!

| B E F O R E|

Here are the little beauts! The one with the crazy chicken painting just got flipped around, as for the pepto bismol special, I had to give that a fresh new coat of paint!

I taped off the bottom edge of the wooden block and gave it a single coat of chalky finish black paint from Hobby Lobby. Then I gave the wood “Gather” cut out (also found at Hob-Lob) a coat of chalky finish mint paint, and hot glued it down. Presto-Chango! Easiest wall art EVER! I’m adoring them stacked up on my counter space as well. (See pictures below)

Will you be buying some wood blocks next time you’re at the thrift store? Or maybe you’ll bring new life to some you already own. Comment below!
