TODDLER GIRLS ROOM IDEA BOARD
Decorating a little girls room has to be my favorite thing ever. I love creating a whimsical space that is both girly and comfortable. Elly requested blue in her room-I think her brothers are rubbing off on her! So I chose a girly blue-more of a light turquoise. I also wanted to be able to…

LEAN FOR 2016
{pic 1.2.3}Hey guys so since it’s the new year, I’m starting a new series here on my blog. It’s called Lean For 2016. By “lean” I don’t mean I plan to share how to loose weight in 2016-rather “lean” means to trim out the excess in your life, to make your home, daily schedule and habits…

HOW TO PAINT YOUR KITCHEN CABINETS WHITE
I have always loved white kitchen cabinets. When we were looking for houses, I really wanted to find one that already had white cabinets. I just knew it would be a pain to paint them and then you always have to worry about chipping paint, etc. But we had no luck finding one with white…

FINDING THE PERFECT DARK HARDWOOD FLOORS
Before we moved in, I knew I wanted to refinish the hardwood floors. We sanded and stained our floors in our old house-you can see evidence here. We did it once, and that’s enough to know that we won’t do it again 🙂 I just didn’t like having our house in disarray for so long…
