I love a chronological list so let's start at the beginning shall we? 1. Lincoln's room- L's room was not only the first room reveal that happened in 2021, it was also my first room reveal ever. Before After 2. Primary Bedroom- Our bedroom had been partially complete going into 2021, but this was the year I put all of the finishing touches on the space. Before After 3. Pantry- The pantry ended up being a very fun weekend challenge that I did with a few Instagram friends and I

Last January, I wrote this post about all of the projects that were on deck for the upcoming year. I thought it would be fun to unpack this old post and see- how did I do? What projects did I tackle and which ones didn't even make it onto my radar. 1. The Kitchen- What I said in January: We don't have the budget for a big kitchen renovation this year and our current kitchen isn't super problematic (this is a photo from the house listing, but other than what's in the cabinets

So far this year you've seen the porch, the playroom, and our primary bedroom. But today I'm sharing the rest of our Christmas decorations around the house! First up is our kitchen, which is decorated pretty similarly to last year, but now that the kitchen makeover is finished it shines about 1000% more. I still love the DIY gold wreaths that I made last year. I hang those with a tiny finishing nail at the very top of the inside of the cabinets. The nail stays there all year

Last week I shared the office in our old apartment so I thought it only fair if I shared the living room from that apartment as well. It's fun to see how my style has evolved and changed so much in the last five years... as well as our surroundings. We hosted many birthday gatherings and parties here and it was a very special apartment. Phoenix's first big boy room was there- we celebrated his second, third, and fourth birthday parties here. And also not pictured, but we had

It's been a long time since we discussed the front room, but now that I've made a few tweaks in the dining room (I'm still dreaming of finding some different chairs for in there), I think it's time to start dissecting this space. Here's how it's been looking... A real unintentional hodge podge of random left over furniture in interesting colors. If you follow me on Instagram you know I've been hunting down the perfect sofa to use in this space for awhile. I fell in love with

Fourth grade was the year I realized that Santa and my mom happened to have the same handwriting. It was weird, but I didn't think much of it... it wasn't until I was in fifth grade that my best friend finally put the nail in the coffin and Santa Clause officially died for me. It was sure fun while it lasted though and I love having a few extra things on hand to make Santa Clause real and Christmas extra magical for my kids. These Santa bags are a must! Plus they can be reuse

If you've been here from the beginning you know I used to be a wedding planner. In my last year as a wedding planner I moved into a beautiful office space at the Creative Cheateau, (a renovated home to house wedding creatives in Houston, Texas), but before that I had a small home office in our old apartment that was really special. I had a lot of fun decorating it and even had my good friend Paige come and photograph it for me. It was featured on The Everygirl back in the day

I don't know about you, but I continue shopping for holiday decor well into December. It's always the perfect time to assess what else I need after all of my holiday decor is out. This year I grabbed a few things from Wayfair, like those ivory bottle brush trees, and I wanted to share a few other of my favorite holiday finds with you! Everything is linked below, happy shopping! Want to read more? DIY Christmas tree flocking all my favorite holiday decor from Target the perfec

Have I mentioned that we added another Christmas tree to our growing collection over here? Last year our total was nine and this year we decided to add one in the dining room bringing our Christmas tree count up to ten. We're all mad here, come join us won't you? Did we need another Christmas tree? No. But does it mean that the exterior of our home now has a tree in every downstairs window? Yes, yes it does. Can you spot them? Nighttime photos will be coming soon because that
