Home Tour Part 13: The Dining Room/Foyer

How is it already part 13 of my home tour? Sadly, it's only taken me close to two years to get almost the whole house featured on this home tour, but already sharing part 13, just seems crazy! I'll Admit: My husband and I have been considering putting this house up for sale, and building on another lot that we own. (For no other reason than... it's just what we do. We have moved 5 times in the last 3 years, living in this house for 2 of those... and that's the longest we've ever lived in one. So we are starting...

Home Tour Part 12: The NEW Nursery

No... I'm not pregnant. I just called this post the "New," Nursery Home Tour because I finally, finally, finally... redecorated my son's nursery. If you're new here, and you want to see the home tour from the beginning: START HERE! If you saw the first tour of his nursery, I admitted that I just reused his older brothers nursery decor. And not that it's not ok... I was kind of getting sick of the old decor, and wanted to mix it up a little. When I was shopping at Hobby Lobby one day, I came across a section that had this "wilderness, native,...

Home Tour – Part 11, Big Boy Bedroom

Yeah, I'm a bit embarrassed to say this, but I'm finally adding another room to our home tour, after about a year of no home tour updates at all. I'm one of those, "perfectionist's," you know... that never feels like something is ready to reveal, because there's always something else I could add? So I wait & wait, until I think it's ok to finally take photos, only to realize that it will NEVER be "done." When we moved in to our new home, I was due to have baby #2 in 2 weeks. {Yes, we are crazy people.} I had struggled...

Spring Chalkboard Art Ideas

It may seem a tad crazy, but I am always so excited when a new holiday comes rolling around, so I can re-do my chalkboard art. When it was time to erase my Easter Chalkboard Art, I had a hard time deciding which holiday to do next. Spring Chalkboard Art So.... I just decided to wing it. Or "Spring," it. {Hee.} I left up the boarder that I had on the Easter design, because I loved it's simplicity. Ok ok... I didn't change it because I was too lazy. When you walk in our front door, the message of the season is always...

IKEA Wall Gallery Layout

My IKEA Wall Gallery has been quite the conversation piece in my home, ever since I FINALLY got it up in my living area. If you went through my home tour , you may notice that I haven't featured my living area just yet. Well... that's because I was waiting to get the wall gallery up, and the mantle decorated. "How do you even start a gallery wall layout?"---yep, heard that one. "Ok, now I need gallery wall ideas for my house."---uh huh, few people have mentioned that too. "Are those IKEA frames?"--Seems like I know some others that share the same love...

Monster Bathroom Printables for Boys-Free Download

I think it's safe to say that I've become addicted to creating printables. The options are endless, and it really serves as a creative outlet for me at the end of the day. Today... my 3 year old was "Mommy's Helper," and gave me input on what he liked. He loves sitting with me at the computer, picking out little characters, and watching it all come to life on "paper." His little project turned in to a bathroom printable, that I wanted to share with you all today, in case you're needing a little décor, and A-HEM... "reminders," for...

Home Tour Part 9 – Baby Nursery

I'm SO excited that I'm finally getting around to continuing the home tour. Life kinda happened, and I took a short pause in decorating the rooms. The nursery however, REALLY didn't take up too much of my time. I kept it very simple, (some may say "bare,") but that's ok with me. Less is more, right? Let's get started... I sinned. Yep. Go ahead, roll your eyes at me... tell me I'm a horrible mommy... What did I do? I re-used the nursery décor from my first baby to decorate my new baby's room. Eeeeek! Well heck, let me tell you why.
