As I mentioned yesterday- it’s time to redo my bathroom! It’s full of 1950’s retro tile that I’m keeping. But the rest needs modernizing. First up- the bathroom cabinet! It was laminate, not original to the space, and just kind of sad looking. So I decided to do a fluted bathroom cabinet refacing DIY. I think you’ll love this transformation!
How Do You Change a 3 Hole Faucet to 1 hole?
Today is an exciting day! It marks the start of my bathroom renovation. As I mentioned before, I’m going to keep the vintage tile and do some fun DIYs to modernize the space and make it feel more like me. First step, new faucet! Only one problem- I want to go from a center set faucet (with 3 holes) to a single faucet. But how do you change a 3 hole faucet to 1 hole?
Here’s my bathroom vanity before we started working on it- 
Contact Paper for Countertops
Last week I gave my kitchen a refresh with painting the cabinets and putting up a contact paper backsplash. I’m not quite ready for a remodel, so I’m doing budget friendly fixes that’ll make it more pretty for now. The biggest issue was my dark brown granite counters. Since I wanted a lighter look, I went for grey marble contact paper for countertops. Want to see the DIY?!
Upcycled Planter DIY
Want to hear my favorite thing? Taking old stuff and finding a new and fun way to use it! So, a few weeks ago my husband alerted me that our neighbor had thrown away two nightstands. Since there’s a thrift shop sized hole in my heart, I raced outside and saw some beat up pieces of furniture I had to have. I scooped them to make this upcycled planter diy!

So this is what I saw from my back yard- two nightstands in the alley (where the trash is collected).
They looked a little rough- both were missing the drawer. They were dirty and beat up. But then I remembered something I’d seen on Pinterest- a planter made from old furniture! Maybe I could use these to make the same?! They sat on my patio for a bit, but yesterday I started on this SUPER easy DIY project!
Little Free Library Plans
I love the idea of a Little Free Library! They give access to books to kids and adults all day, every day. It’s a great way to get to know your neighbors and embrace your love of reading. I thought I’d share my Little Free Library Plans so you can build one too! This tutorial has been used by hundreds of people and I hope it’s helpful to you too.
At my last house, I had the cutest Little Free Library that I LOVED. It was built from an up-cycled cabinet. This project will build the library from scratch.
If you haven’t heard of little free libraries- they are book share boxes made by normal people and put outside their homes or shops that are filled with books that anyone can borrow or add to. Plus, they’re a great way to creatively make something that will benefit your neighbors while building community connections. Plus they look cute outside your house!

Where Do You Get Your Dresses?
I’ve been getting the same question over and over the past few days- where do you get your dresses? To be honest, talking about clothes isn’t super comfortable for me. I’m used to discussing home decor and DIY! But I definitely have a “uniform” so I thought I’d share where I shop and what I look for.
Earlier this week I talked about developing your own style in interiors. I mentioned how the style of what I wear strongly correlates with my decorating taste. They work together and they both tell the story of who I am.
Kitchen Floor Plan Options
Last week I did my one day kitchen makeover and I love how it’s looking now! But, since my brain just can’t stop improving things, I started thinking about the layout. Right now, it’s pretty bad. Too small and not enough countertop space especially since one little counter is for dish drying. So I asked my Instagram friends for advice and did they deliver! Here’s some new kitchen floor plan options!
Chalk Paint Nightstand Makeover
Well, in February I bought a set of furniture for Don’s room (it was $35 for the dresser and nightstand!!!) and I finally am getting around to painting the nightstand. There were some days this February where I bought WAY too much thrifting and I was overwhelmed with project. And boy, am I glad I did now! Especially since I can do this chalk paint nightstand makeover!
What is My Decor Style?
One of the questions I’m asked a lot is “what is my decor style? How do I find it and implement it? I want to love my house and have it feel like me.” This is a hard question to answer in a comment on social media. It’s involved and might take years to hone in. I thought I’d tell you step by step how I found mine and how it’s helped me in the hope that it’ll provide you a guide. [Read more…]
