Home School Tips and First Day of School

Wednesday, August 5, 2020

Mason and Lucas started school today and it looks a whole lot different than it has in the past. 


Lucas's desk is setup in the breakfast room. This makes it easier for us to assist him with assignments and helps to keep him focused. 

Coastal Master Bedroom

I woke up this weekend with a vision for updating our Master Bedroom. Nick and I are divided on the wallpaper and we would love for you to weigh in.  What option gets your vote?

Porch Fireplace DIY

Monday, June 29, 2020

I think this weekend might be the first time that I have experienced a DIY fail :(  Lucas and I spent almost 3 hours (not to mention the cost) to create this succulent wall insert. 


I don't hate it, but I don't love it either. Something is just off.  I'm debating on turning it into a wall hanging.  Or adding some sort of tile around the firebox to make it look bigger. Do you have any suggestions for me?

Porch Updates

Friday, June 19, 2020

One of the top appeals of our new house was the fabulous screen porch.  We had a great screen porch on Everstone (our last house) as well, but this one is even bigger. We had one little issue though, it didn't have a wall for Nick's TV but now it does.



As you can see, we had our contractor install a shiplap wall to add privacy and to give us a wall in which to hang a TV. 

Great Room Updates - Phase 2

Tuesday, May 19, 2020

My hubby was checking out my new blog posts today and was shocked and appalled perturbed that I had not yet featured our fireplace wall and DIY curtains.  How dare I!  He did most of the wallpapering and helped with painting the curtains. He's my partner in crime.

Navy and Gold Bathroom

I don't know about you, but being quarantined has gotten my creative juices flowing again.  We want to add board and batten to our downstairs bathroom as well as some wallpaper.  Here's what I have in mind.


Great Room Updates-Phase 1

There were two things that really drew me to this house. The first was the white kitchen with marble countertops. The second was all the windows, especially in the Great Room.

These are pictures from the listing on MLS. As you can see the previous owner had excellent tastes. We haven't changed very much besides the lighting and the wallpaper in the niches next to the fireplace.
