Sheepskin stools

I spend a lot "down time" on Pinterest and blogs. What I mean by down time is, anytime I can get to myself! Most of the time thats a whopping 5 minutes but I will take it! And every now and again, I will see a photo that just speaks to me...this one spoke to me!(sorry about the bluuurrr)Those sheepskin stools....OMG! I mean, I was loving them! This is funny to me because some time ago I read...

Planked White Walls

I love everything white. True statement. Everything and anything white. This is nothing new to those of you that know me or have been in my house. I firmly believe that when in doubt just paint it white. Its always a win. The only thing is though, sometimes white walls can seem unfinished if they have no visual appeal. Thats where trim work comes in. It adds the depth that a all white...

Pillow's

I must confess....I have a slight pillow obsession! I love to change them up all the time because new pillow's can bring life in to a room and make it feel completely different. The only thing that I don't like is that they can be kind of expensive..ugh! I mean, I find one that I love and it's $108! And that's usually just for the cover! I just love that, don't you? (insert sarcasm) You...

$5 Napkin's

Sometime's I get lucky enough to stumble upon a really good find. A quick trip out last night found me these adorable napkins. I wasn't looking for cloth napkins at all, but at $5 for 6. I couldn't pass them up!Although, I love the thought of using these for a lovely dinner party or ladies brunch one day. The truth is, they will probably go in to the drawer with my other cloth napkin's....see you...

Anniversary Bouquet

Today is our eleven year wedding anniversary and my sweet husband sent me this gorgeous bouquet of roses!I'm a lucky girl, I know.The thing is... I love them so much and I can only enjoy them in one room like this. Solution: make another small arrangement out of this one!First thing I needed to do was prepare the vase with some tape to section it off. This keeps the flowers upright and you...

Navy Blue Dining Table

This story is a perfect example of how my brain works.....Two day's ago I was browsing Craigslist looking for a table for our kitchen, because a few months ago I did some rearranging...yes again! You might remember when the front room turned in to a dining room again, okay so anyway, I was browsing Craigslist and I came across a pedestal table for $40. I wasn't wow'd by it but thought, hmm this...

Built In Locker's

Our built in lockers....sigh...how did I ever live without you?Aren't they pretty!This was one of those must have's on my list of things for this house and even though it was a little extra,  I have to say I don't regret it at all! They are perfectly located right next to the garage door to catch all the crap that used to be thrown in a pile on the floor every time the hub's and kiddos came...

The Loft

When I started this blog a short time ago, I promised myself that I wouldn't allow perfect to ruin the good. I am very happy with the progress we have made in the house thus far but that doesn't mean I don't get caught up with what isn't done yet or what I want to do with the house! That kind of thinking is what makes me not want to post pictures of the house because I think to myself....oh,...
