$50 Mantle Makeover

I keep getting lots of requests to come to peoples homes and decorate for them. This week, I decided to bombard my sweet and amazing friend/neighbor Tori’s house. Ready or Not…here I come! Tori has an amazing house with so much potential and like most stories I hear she doesn’t have the time or vision to start the decorating process. Decorating the whole house is very overwhelming. I totally get that!

DIY Shiplap Wall – Quick, Easy & Cheap

As first time homeowners, I was so excited to get into this house and really make it my own. It had lots of potential but, required some much needed love!!!

We knew we wanted to be together when we launched the blog to all so what better reason to have our first ever “work trip” or as our husbands call them TDY’s. Off to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia we went because, well, we didn’t have a…

Creating Fall Curb Appeal

Are you getting ready for Fall? My house is in full Fall effect right now, or at least getting there one area at a time! After living in Hawaii for so long, the one thing I really missed from the Mainland was Fall!! I would dream of boots, sweaters, pumpkin patches and warm coffee. Adding some fall decor to your home really can make this time of season a little…
