Every year we head out to our local Christmas Tree Farm and choose a tree. In the beginning we would get one that was too big, or had really sharp needles or ones with gaping holes. I kind of think I am little bit of an expert now…and I want to share tips with you! …

If you follow me on Instagram, you would have seen that I recently created a headboard on my daughters bed. You can see how I did it in my Instagram Highlights. I wanted to add something a little different and a little more personalized to her headboard, and I immediately thought of putting her name …
Newsflash. Some projects just don’t go the way you want them to. I am no exception. If you follow me on Instagram, you would have seen my plan to remove the backsplash in my kitchen. It’s the same tile as our countertops as well as the old tile that was on the floor, and I …
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut. The opinions and text are all mine. I have been wanting a Cricut forever. Each time I would make something or think of how to make something I would usually think, it would be so easy with a Cricut. Well the day has …
I have to admit, I’m pretty good on my free furniture game. I tend to find the free items on Facebook Marketplace first and scoop them up. This nightstand didn’t have a chance. I saw it and had to have it. I thought it would be the perfect addition to Molly’s room. When Country Chic …
The closets in our home have been the bane of my exisistance since we moved in. Basically what was there was a rod to hang the clothes. And, as a former Professional Organizer all I could see was wasted space! So to get us through the baby years until we knew what our needs were, …
Since I finished this work station wall in my office, every time I walk past my office door I have to stop and just stare at it. I love the way it turned out. It all started when I scored two new base kitchen cabinets on the Facebook Marketplace for $50. They were brand new …
This summer was the year we were going to start tackling our yard and landscaping. Since being here for 6 years we have mostly worked inside the house but it was time to get the outside in shape too. One project at a time. One of the areas that just bothers me is a set …
This project was not planned at all. But I’m so glad I did it. I was cleaning out our guest room and the cabinet that used to be in our living room was shoved in there after I replaced it with another. I always sell pieces that we are not using, but I love this …
I was sitting on the floor in my daughter’s room playing and she wanted to get something out of her closet. The problem was her sliding doors were too heavy for her to slide, the toy she wanted was on the other side, and she had to close the door to her room to get …
We had a bunch of trees cut down and our yard looked like a mess and we have been slowly trying to clean it up. But there was one space I always wanted to add a garden bed with tons of flowers and bushes near the road. There were two trees in that spot but …
After I painted the upstairs of our Raised Ranch, I wanted a new look in our dining room. I loved our shelves before, but I wanted a new look…but still with shelves. Before we had long shelves, and to tell you the truth they were just annoying to style. I need everything to kind of …
When we moved into our home 6 years ago, and were purchasing our tools for the yard, I always thought to get the big, gas powered ones because we have almost 3 acres and we need the heavy duty stuff. Well about 2 years ago I had a change of heart. When STIHL invited me …
After I painted the living room it was time for a little refresh on the wall decor. I loved my windows with pictures of my wedding day and honeymoon in them, as well as everyone on Pinterest, but it was time for a change. I still wanted something rustic and large but also still wanted …
I noticed the color of our electric baseboard heaters when we moved into our home 6 years ago and I wanted to paint them then. But after we painted the walls “Perfect Greige” by Sherwin Williams they tended to blend in more so I left them. But now, after we just repainted our whole upstairs …
Back on my 39th Birthday in February I wrote a post telling you about how I wanted to live out my last year in my 30’s. Well now it’s time for accountably and tell you what I have been doing differently…plus giving you an opportunity ride along with me. In my post I wrote about …
I put together a list of my summer essentials that I actually have or have used! Sometimes they make summer a little easier or maybe just a little more fun! Here are my summer essentials for your kids, home and yourself! Kids: Sprinkler – Doesn’t have to be fancy! As long as it sprays water …
Our front door got a paint makeover a few years ago, because it was an inexpensive way to update a door I wasn’t in love with. The glass in the door still wasn’t really my style or really my home’s style either. It didn’t let a ton of light in and I didn’t like that …
I first saw this piece on the Facebook Marketplace and I thought it looked really interesting. It was $50 but I didn’t know where I would put it so I didn’t want to pay that much. After a few weeks it went down to $40 then a few weeks it was still there so I …
It’s done!! I have been wanting to paint my living room/dining room/hallway and entry for almost two years now, but it just seemed like such a big project I didn’t want to do it. I think the main reason was because this whole space was the last space for me to take down the chair …
