We shape our buildings. Thereafter they shape us. Give them roots & wings.

Happy Friday! It’s faux beam time for our @onero

Happy Friday! It’s faux beam time for our @oneroomchallenge project!

We are moving in many directions here - good thing we have a list laid out and an extra set of hands!

The sun is shining - perfect day to do a little painting- did I mention I changed my mind on the wall panels? Yep, after seeing the gorgeous Indigo blue color on the wall, I’m going with a grid pattern! I think it will be perfect with the faux beams.

Better get off here-the table saw is calling, the paint brush is whispering and the sewing machine is yelling. Lol- we have had some long days... can you tell? 😂

Mid-week! Hump day! It’s Wednesday! I know it

Mid-week! Hump day! It’s Wednesday!

I know it might feel a little early to have a Christmas present show up in your feed but there is a good reason.

Today I’m joining several bloggers in an annual event, Festive Christmas Ideas Tour.

Every Monday and Wednesday thru November 19th, find Holiday inspiration to make all things merry and bright!

We are all about games. I took a favorite group game we have played with neighbors and friends at Christmas parties over the years and gave it a little twist!

I included a couple of printables for easy download too!

Wrapping up the final details of this Calm Coastal

Wrapping up the final details of this Calm Coastal Retreat Bedroom.

Walls will be going a beautiful neutral. Bringing in the deeper blues for a quick avenue to restful sleep.

Working within a budget and a existing recliner- I think we have a gorgeous room!

Looking forward to seeing this room become a reality for my dear clients!

Please tell me I’m not the only one who thinks n

Please tell me I’m not the only one who thinks next year feels so far away and Christmas can’t be this close.

Christmas is 60 days away. Have you started to think about gift giving? To be honest I’m not really there yet.

However...

I do want to be a little more creative this year. Give from the heart creative. This beautiful monogrammed tray is actually semi-handmade!

Cause, I bought the tray kit. I did mix the custom green paint and hand painted the monogram. It wouldn’t be hard to build if you so desired.

I posted the tutorial on the website, so easy to create.

If you have a Dremel Stylo tool - carve the monogram- this takes a bit more care and patience but so worth it.

Make Monday inspiring by reading all the creative ways to give gifts with heart. This monogram tray is just one of several ideas on the #festivechristmasideas event taking place now through November 19th!

My @oneroomchallenge with media sponsor @betterhomesandgardens week 3 post is live!

This gorgeous inky color is making a real impact in the room.

I had high hopes for this
@sherwinwilliams Indigo Batik and it is not disappointing. Now, imagine panel moulding drenched in this color! So good, y’all.

It’s hard to believe we are at the mid-point of the challenge but we are! Excited to share the progress with you. *link in the bio.

May you have a beautiful Sunday, friends.

I’ve got a little Saturday morning reading for you all!

It’s that time of year- time for the Festive Christmas Ideas Event! For the next several weeks on Mondays and Wednesdays you will find wonderful inspiration from some very talented ladies.

This week, we kicked the event off with helpful gift guides.

On the website I have 11 “pawfect” ideas for dog lovers & their fur babies. and a seriously detailed list of goodies for the triathlete in your life- curated by my favorite triathlete, my daughter!

Find the links to all the gift guides on my post. Find my post linked in the bio.

Hope your weekend is great! The temps have dropped here and we are so happy. Now it feels like there should be blankets on the chairs.😂

Hooray for Friday! It’s been a long but wonderfu

Hooray for Friday! It’s been a long but wonderful week here.

I had the best time at High Point market. I was able to connect and visit with so many vendors and gained great inspiration.

Because of this “impromptu” trip my ORC update is a little late. It will be live tomorrow!

Excited to show you all the good things going on with the Gentleman’s Quarters bedroom. In the meantime, I thought I would share a kitchen makeover. My previous kitchen makeover.

Swipe through to see the before photos. This kitchen operated well but became kinda dated with its builder special granite and cabinetry stain color.

To update the space we tackled a few areas.

We painted the main cabinetry in @sherwinwilliams Egret white. The kitchen island received a dose of color using Benjamin Moore’s Cheating Heart.

I added the “X” paneling to the builder cabinetry island to make the island feel custom without spending a fortune.

I also replaced the can light above the island with a pendant light (such an easy way to update a kitchen!).

The large slippery tiles were removed and a little old world charm was brought in via the brick pavers.

To create a cleaner look, I had the idea of adding secret panels to the spice racks above the oven! All these little changes gave the kitchen a classic more timeless feel.

This was phase 1 of the remodel. In phase 2, backsplash and countertops would be replaced.

Now phase 2 ideas belong to the home’s new sweet owners. That’s the beauty- it will keep evolving with each new dweller.

I’m working on a few ideas for our current kitchen that I can’t wait to implement and share with you.

Have a fantastic Friday my friends! Happy to have the weekend around the corner. 😊
