BOYS ROOM SNEAK PEAK
I have been working so hard trying to finish each of our rooms. The boys room is close to being finished so I thought I would share a little sneak peak. They wanted a superhero room, I wanted a black and white room, so this is a compilation of the boy’s and my ideas. I…

HOMEWORK STATION/COMMAND CENTER MAKEOVER
We have this little area right off our kitchen that was probably meant as a butler’s pantry or something, but I saw it as the perfect little homework/command center area.

PAINTING AN OAK BAINSTER
Like me on Facebook – stay up to date with my latests crafts and giveaways! When we moved in we knew we wanted to finish the wood floors on the 1st floor (I’ll talk a little more about the floors in a later post), but the new floor color effected the banister color. I wanted…
