Juliet's Girls Bedroom Design
Juliet had been begging for a bigger bed for months (she’s had twins since she was 18 months old)...but she had a habit of sneaking out of her room a few nights a week! So this girl killed a challenge chart by going to bed without a fight and staying in it for two months to earn this upgrade! Daddy took her to City Furniture on one of their daddy/daughter dates and she picked this one out! She was so excited and grateful for her “new room” and hasn’t missed a day of staying in and even making her bed since. She’s had each of us over for a “sleepover” in her room too.
Hallway Update
We have a small hallway that goes from our garage to our kitchen with doors to a utility closet and the laundry room. It ends up being a place where purses and backpacks line the floor. I had a small shelf with hooks but it was always overloaded and junked up. I decided this space needed some updating!
To be honest… I had can of black paint in the garage from when I painted my laundry room with Dalmatian spots and figured, hey, one less trip to Home Depot, I’ll just use this up!
Home Edit Inspired Pantry Organization
I recently came across The Home Edit on Instagram and I know, have I been living under a rock? Let’s just say HELLO INSPIRATION. I instantly felt the need to organize something. The worst area of our house was definitely our pantry. I couldn’t even walk in the little room. When I look at the before pic I’m more overwhelmed than I was when I was doing it. So much stufffffff.
Playroom Design Update - Big Kids Playroom
Ahh the playroom. It was one of the things I was most excited about when we renovated this house over five years ago. A room, for all the toys to live, where you could just shut the door and forget about the mess haha. During COVID quarantine this room got a little out of control, mostly because there wasn’t enough room to put stuff away… or was it the fact that we had too much STUFF?
Master Bedroom Refresh
There’s nothing like a quarantine to make you look around and want to redo every single space in your house, am I right? I have been wanting to get a new rug in our bedroom room for awhile. I never intended to use the dark grey shag rug in there but it worked for the time being when we got a new living room rug that went better with our sectional.
Holiday Decor: Partnership with Bealls Outlet
Needless to say, I was pretty excited when Bealls Outlet reached out and wanted to collaborate on a holiday decor project! Most everything you’re going to see was purchased at Bealls Outlet… it’s honestly the first place I go to look for holiday decor so this partnership was perfection.
DIY Hanging Daybed
I went back and forth on what I wanted on our covered porch area once the pool was completed. I thought about a bar and barstools, I thought about just a dining table and finally decided on a place to relax in the shade. After some Pinteresting I found an easy-to-follow plan to build a hanging daybed.
New Pool and Outdoor Living Project
I am so excited! Our pool is finished! We have been dreaming of this since we moved into this house four years ago. We are on a large piece of property so the project felt a little overwhelming… it was basically like we had a blank slate! About six months ago Steve finally said, “Let’s just do it, the kids are at a great age to enjoy it, there’s no better time.” So we got a couple quotes and selected our contractor, Matt Miller from Indian River Pools.
Neutral Dining Room
This summer I decided to take on a project… photographing the rooms in my house I haven’t shared yet! If you didn’t know, we renovated this house a few years back. It was a pretty big undertaking but I love our location - right around the corner from where I grew up and where my parents still live, our property - wood acreage that is rare to find in town, and our house - designed by myself and renovated by my Dad’s company.
Guest Bathroom Refresh: Palm Leaf Wallpaper Bathroom
I’m so excited about this project! Like legit in love. I go in this palm leaf wallpaper bathroom, turn on the lights and smile from ear to ear. Awhile back I partnered with Walls Republic on my office project and I instantly knew I wanted to wallpaper this bathroom one day.
Guest Bathroom Refresh: Wallpaper Options
I decided it’s time for a Guest Bathroom Refresh! I happened to use the girls’ bathroom the other day and realized how much they touch the walls to get on and off the potty. I have magic eraser-ed them before, but they just look dingy!
White Kitchen Renovation
My kitchen. I’m in love with it. I’m STILL in love with it after living here for three and a half years. In our old house we had a really small kitchen with black granite countertops. I loved the look of black when I picked it out building our first house, but it made the kitchen so DARK.
Home Office Design
My office! Well I guess I can say “our office” since Steve does use the secretary as his desk. This was a catch-all space for awhile before Steve’s recording studio was finished. We had our desks, random furniture, musical instruments and more in here. As soon as he was able to move all of his stuff out I got to work on the room!
Neutral Master Bedroom
Well one by one I’m getting these rooms photographed for the “afters.” Here are a few of our bedroom! I must say I’m pretty addicted to surrounding myself with neutrals, love these greys and creams together with a little black and gold. I’m still undecided whether or not I’m going to add draperies to the windows behind the nightstands. I bought the rods and panels but I really like how “clean” it looks right now… so I’m letting it simmer. What do you think? (After seeing the first pic, all I can think is that I need a new bedskirt!)
