Happy Monday, friend! 😀 I thought I’d share some Spring decorating inspiration here today. Ya know, before it’s Summertime- ha! 😀 First up, a peek at our dining room… I don’t keep the table this decked out like that all the time, but it was fun to spruce it up for Easter and to […]
Christmas Decorating In The Living Room (Little By Little!)
Happy Monday, y’all! I’m sharing some preview pics today because I’m not *quite* finished decorating for Christmas yet, and there’s no way they’d all fit in one post anyway- ha! 😀 I decided to go cozy/wintry/woodsy this year and this snuggly pom-pom fringed blanket from HomeGoods was my jumping off point: And when I saw […]
Simple, Farmhouse Style Shelves For Our Built-In Cabinetry
Steevenson’s toys were *just* the motivation I needed to fiiiinally get some shelves inside our built-in cabinetry in the living room. It was a super simple project. First, we used some left over wood to make cleats: Then, we used some inexpensive plywood as the shelves. We tacked 1x2s to the front of each one […]
Lettered Cottage Living Room
Hello! Last week, we talked about some things that happened in 2016 that we wish we could’ve been better prepared for today. I mentioned that one of the things I wish I had gotten a jump on was really giving our house one good cleaning before Steevenson came home in August. I didn’t realize how much […]
Adoption Update and Sliding Reclaimed Wood Shutters
“Not all things on my to do list are big.

Reclaimed Wood Fireplace and Built-Ins (Stikwood)
The Stikwood has been stuck, y’all! What is Stikwood? It’s the world’s first peel-and-stick reclaimed and sustainable wood planking. Here’s a video that shows how easy it is to work with: We didn’t stick ours to a wall though. We used it to give our new cabinet and fireplace some character: We only needed a […]
Farmhouse Built-ins (And The Difference Between Shiplap and Tongue-And-Groove Planks)
Hi! Did you have a nice weekend? 😀 Our adoption caseworker, Meredith, emailed on Friday and said that we are only lacking one more signature on the paperwork that will legally make Sweet P our son, so we are excited to see what this month *hopefully* brings! Can’t help think about 2-26. (Read these posts if you’d […]
Farmhouse Fireplace and Built-Ins
Hi! Did you have a nice week? 😀 It’s been raining a LOT here lately, so our in-laws barn project keeps getting put on hold. Maybe next week we’ll have enough sunny days to get started? As for indoor projects, we’ve been working (little by little) on one of the (two) built-in units in our […]
The Perfect Paint Color For Our Farmhouse Fireplace
“Design is a never-ending journey of discovery — for which it helps to pack a healthy sense of humor.” -David Carson Ain’t that the truth? 😀 So, a few weeks ago I told you my gut had been saying “paint the fireplace white” from the time the Blue Yonder went up way back in September. […]
Farmhouse Fireplace Makeover
Happy New Year!! I’m ready to tackle some more home projects this month, and I’ve got a fireplace paint color question for you today. Right now, the backdrop of ours is a custom-mixed color I call “Blue Yonder“… (PS- the church window is a dark, natural wood on the flip side) But here’s the thing: we […]
Curtains and Rugs (Vlog)
“Life is a blank canvas, and you need to throw all the paint on it you can.” -Danny Kaye Happy Monday, y’all! Did you have a nice weekend? The weather was pretty close to perfect on Saturday here in Alabama. What a treat this extended summer has been. 80 degrees in November! SO wild! My brother […]
Living Room Plans
“Its always difficult to keep Fridays confined within themselves..they tend to spill over.” -Kai Sinclair Happy Fri-Sat-Sun, y’all! I had a few questions about the rug in our living room, so I snapped a couple of pics so the folks who asked could get a better look. It came via a partnership with the peeps […]
Living Room Update (Vlog)
Okay, y’all. I’m vlogging again today. 🙂 It was just too much fun chatting with/hearing from you about the living room on Monday, and I have some new things to show you in there today! Now, here’s what else you need to know: 1. Another reason I don’t want ceiling-height cabinetry on the sides of […]
A Look At Our Living Room
Hi! Did you have a nice weekend? Ours was pretty quiet…well, except during that quadruple overtime at the end of the Auburn/Arkansas game. There was lots of noise around here then. ? …and speaking of our living room: Can I run a few things by you from there today? I made a little video because I felt like it would […]
Fall Mantel Decorating
“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:12 One more sleep ’til we head to Louisiana to welcome little Samuel home!!
