Our master bathroom renovation is trucking along. In fact, almost everything is already ordered! So I think it’s about time I shared the design with all of you!

I’ve mentioned in the past that I have a bad habit of overcomplicating things. Well, not this time! I created these sweet little cardboard house luminaries in just a couple of hours (including time for the paint to dry). Let me show you how!

Painting your stairs can be an inexpensive way to give them a completely new look, but do they actually hold up? No one wants to take the time to do a home improvement project that doesn't last. Lucky for you, in this post, I'm sharing the pros and cons of how my painted stairs are standing the test of time after 1 year so you can decide if this type of project is right for you!

I'm going to share with you some of the images that have inspired me to paint my own kitchen cabinets GREEN! But not just that, we'll also cover the other elements that visually pull a kitchen together - hardware, counters, and wall color. Let's get to it!

Well, we've gone and changed our floor plan again - we're moving our laundry room upstairs! And that means I get to design another room! So I've been doing some research and finding inspiration about how to create a functional (and stylish!) laundry room.

We're getting SO CLOSE to being done with the bedroom renovation I can taste it (or maybe that's just the drywall dust floating in the air….). So while Lucius is mudding and sanding, and mudding and sanding some more, I'm planning the next stage of our master bedroom - PAINT, DÉCOR, AND FURNISHINGS!

Now that Halloween is over, it was time to switch up my décor to something less spooky and more fitting for the autumnal season. BUT, of course, I didn't want to spend a bunch of money buying all new décor. So in this post, I'm sharing how to transition your Halloween decorations to general fall decor in 4 steps.

We've been in the midst of our master suite renovation for several months now and I'm sure you're not surprised to hear that it takes its toll on a person. This is our biggest renovation to date and it has certainly had its ups and downs. But although we’ve had our “off” days, overall I'd say Lucius and I have done a pretty darn good job staying positive and motivated along the way (bonus points for not killing each other!). But exactly how DO you stay positive and motivated during a renovation?

I obviously LOVE home design, but when it comes to seasonal decor, with the exception of Christmas, it’s always felt a little pointless to me. I mean, who am I decorating for anyway?

Well, let me tell you… now that my older daughter is almost 5, I need to get my ish together because there’s no way she’s letting me get away without any fall decor up in here! I couldn’t say no to her incessant pleas for decorations (kids, amirite?), so we’ve been spending a lot of time lately finding ways to create some festive decorations together, including the topic for today’s post: how to make an easy, no-sew bunting.

Let me tell you, I have had a helluva time decorating my mantel for Halloween and putting this post together… because I’m cheap.

Let me explain…

The thought of hanging a gallery wall can be intimidating. So many pictures. So many nails. So many potential mess-ups and unnecessary nail holes! Where does the madness end!?

Have no fear! I’ve got you covered with a step-by-step tutorial on how to hang a gallery wall that eliminates the probable accidental nail hole (or two, or three).
