I haven’t worked on the outside of our house since we built the wood pallet fence around our ugly air conditioning unit a few years ago. We’ve been in our house about 17 years and I really wanted to change the color scheme up a bit. After the HOA okayed my plans I got to […]

A BEAUTIFUL NEW DESK FROM THE RUBBLE
Do you remember when I told you about the LOMLs desk that we were going to move into Son #4’s bedroom when we were building the cozy reading nook? How it fell apart in our hands as we were transporting it. We didn’t make it ten steps before all the joints broke apart! We ended […]
SAYING GOODBYE TO THE TREE MURAL!
Hey Everybody! How’s everyone’s week going? The LOML is in China this week and I’m not used to it. He travels about once every decade. While he’s gone, I’m getting some stuff done. I’m trying to take advantage of the warm weather (minus the pollen…it’s killing me!) so I got outside and did some […]
THE READING NOOK ~ The final reveal!!
I’m so excited to show y’all our new cozy reading nook in our master bedroom! But before I do, a little recap of how we got here. We had a small alcove in our bedroom that housed the LOMLs computer desk. I’ve wanted to revamp our master bedroom for awhile and when I saw this […]
THE READING NOOK ~ Wood plank wall
The cozy reading nook in our master bedroom is coming along so nicely. I’m so proud of all the planning and work that we’ve put into this small but fun space. When we started this blog, we were definitely what you would call “novices”. We knew nothing about building bookcases, laying wood floors, pulling up […]

I wrote a post about all the Master Bedroom Plans that are running through my head. You can go visit then come […]
MASTER CLOSET REVEAL ~ Organized, Clean, & Beautiful!
I’m so excited to show you our new master closet. But before I do, a little reminiscing. Here’s the before. Very disorganized and cluttered. I hated walking into it every day. After we emptied out all the stuff and took down the wire shelving, we filled in all the holes with spackling, sanded forever, scrubbed […]
CLOSET RENOVATION ~ Take Two ~ Storage bins
Our house is in full swing now that everyone is in school. I love summer break where we spend family time but I also love getting back into a regular schedule and working on our to-do list. To recap, we’ve been working on our master bedroom closet. It was just a wire shelving mess […]
CLOSET RENOVATION ~ pipe shelving
We’re slowly but surely progressing with our master bedroom closet. If you remember from my last closet post, we decluttered and organized all the crap important items in the closet. We’ve also painted the walls a cheery yellow, and laid engineered wood floors just like our upstairs hallway. After we finished this part of the project, […]
