Monday’s are made for new beginnings! I’m work

Monday’s are made for new beginnings! I’m working on a few things around here that will be revealed soon but in the meantime I’m nearing the finish line on a neat little project.

What you see here is a vintage cabinet (read not an antique) in the in-between phase. Swipe to see the before.

The “before” picture doesn’t quite do justice the very rough condition this piece was in. The paint aged terribly, areas were missing paint- one of the poor cranes was missing their beak. That’s all in the past now.

I’m so excited to show you this lovely cabinet in her full glory. The $100 room challenge reveals are this week! Thank you Erin @lemonslavenderlaundry for dreaming up this event - it’s amazing how far 100 bucks can go.

I have an update on week 3 of this $100 room challenge on the blog. Come on by and while you are there- catch up with all the super creative participants.

When we purchased our house many years ago, the po

When we purchased our house many years ago, the popular idea was to create spice storage by making narrow shelves on each side of the stovetop.

It seemed like a fine idea if you have perfectly pretty spice jars and you do not have a window above your stove that receives excruciatingly strong sunlight.

To solve this little dilemma, I grabbed my pencil and notepad.

I drew out the space showing the doors as panels for above the stove and one of my friends who builds cabinetry went to work!

Matching the existing cabinet door details kept the new addition feeling seamless.

The kitchen suddenly became more tailored and custom. My spices were saved and the clutter gone!

How can I help you? Do you have a kitchen that has seen better days? A laundry room that’s just not cutting it? An old paint palette that no longer works?

Let’s talk! You can find my design services linked in the bio or email me - joy@theaspiringhome.com for your complimentary discovery call.

Have a fantastic weekend my friends!

Life is all about the little moments that add up to a life well lived.

You could say that design is all about the little details that add up to make a house a home.

Attention to detail took these stairs from the ordinary to extraordinary.

I gave this little foyer much needed wow factor by adding @myoverlays Greek key detail.

This project can be easily completed in a weekend and requires just a few simple tools.

Happy Friday my friends, may it be filled with sweet happy moments.

Ever find yourself in need of more storage? Ha! Wh

Ever find yourself in need of more storage? Ha! What a silly question – right?!?

How sleek do these look?!? The before was awful. Reusable bags, lunch boxes, boxes of paper goods, and utensils were stacked underneath. It was a fine place to store such items except they never seemed to stay in place. Oh no, they would somehow creep into the middle of the pantry room floor… all by themselves.

They would not be tamed.

So what to do?

Corral the aggravation!

Undershelf storage bins had to be the answer.

Who has time to put everything neatly under the shelves 12 times a day? Contrary to popular belief… not me.

With the help of a sheet of MDF board, a few wheels, hardware, and a bit of paint – I now have a solution that makes us all very happy.

Happy Saturday my friends! May you find peace in the chaos -whether it is in life or unruly pantry items.
