Alright are you ready to see the other bedroom makeover we did this week?? I have to say this it is a HUGE transformation. This is Rachel and Jeff's master bedroom that Kevin and I gifted to them. We recently made over their oldest sons (Lukes) bedroom after Rachel had emailed me when I asked for submissions for a room makeover. And we just couldn't help but do ALL their bedrooms. They are a very loving, kind deserving family. Their youngest son, Patrick has special needs and is the cutest boy. We really felt they all deserved a cozy spot to lay their heads at night after working so hard. This ... Read More
Creating Design Boards and Our Current Projects
We have a lot of projects in the works right now! I thought it would be fun to share all the design plans we have going. Because honestly they take up a lot of my tome to create! Also wanted to (again) show important it is for any room transformation to do a design board or mood board or design plan. Whatever you call it. It is all the same. A plan to get you going towards your vision. You might think "what if you don't have a vision?" Well you have to start somewhere! Find an inspiration piece then go from there. It could be a room you found on Pinterest or Instagram. It could be wallpaper ... Read More
Master Bedroom Makeover with Home Office
Master Bedroom Makeover coming at you today! This bedroom has been a long time in the making! I made over this then clients home (now friend) when we moved to Connecticut about 3 years ago. I looked at doing her entire home and knew we would do it in stages, with the master bedroom being last on the list. Isn't that always the case? I do agree that you want to do your main living areas first, then tackle the bedrooms. But how nice would it be to have a sanctuary to relax in first? You might remember this home, everything is was thrifted! And this master bedroom is no exception, besides a ... Read More
Bedroom Makeover- Dark Furniture to Bright White with Wallpaper Accent Wall
I am so, so, soooooo very excited to show you this bedroom makeover! This room belongs to neighbors and good friends of mine. We took their room from being dark and cramped to light and bright! Best part- we kept ALL the same furniture! We painted the dark wood bedroom set all white, did a little DIY to the headboard and wallpapered the main focal point wall with temporary wallpaper. It did NOT happen overnight. It took many hours to paint the furniture and I will share the details. And many hours on my part installing the wallpaper. But, the wallpaper really makes the room feel complete ... Read More
Winter Master Bedroom and Christmas Kids Room
Today we are going to look into two bedrooms in our little cape! Our master bedroom- turned into a Winter Master Bedroom. And Finn's bedroom all decked out for a fun Kids Christmas Bedroom! I shouldn't say "all decked out" I added a couple little things. But he does have a really cute tree so it feels decked out and super festive. We spend a lot of time in both of these room's, so I love to add some twinkle lights and a little Christmas decor. Actually in a small, 1200 square foot home you spend a lot of time in EVERY ROOM! I am also joining 15 other bloggers to share their Christmas ... Read More
How to Make your Bedding Fluffy and our new Bedding
We were overdue for some new bedding. I had a white linen duvet on our bed that Kevin had given to me as a Birthday gift 8 years ago! He knew I really wanted it and that I was nervous about spending a lot of money on bedding. He surprised me with it along with a little scavenger hunt he set up because he was out of town for work. I learned a good lesson from that bedding...and that Kevin is a keeper:)! If you spend the money on quality and timeless bedding you will love it for years and it will last for years. Linen bedding is actually TWICE as durable as cotton bedding! I have had a ... Read More

See what she has to say about the rest of her bedroom and bathroom and how she ... Read More
Dark Bedroom Walls
I was thinking the other day if we move from this house if I would paint our bedroom walls dark again? I think that I would! I like feeling like a bear in a cave in our 10'x13' bedroom. I am drawn to bedrooms with dark walls. Especially with light bedding for a nice contrast and to keep it from feeling dreary. I rounded up my favorite dark painted bedrooms for some of my favorite bloggers for some inspiration! We painted our bedroom in a flat finish from Benjamin Moore called Gray. Yes it is just called Gray, easy to remember! My friend Melanie from Sweet Savannah painted her ... Read More
