Around here, our dogs are considered members of our family. We have a dog bed for Derek in the kitchen, but in the living room, where Lucy usually sleeps, we didn’t have a designated space for her. So I did what any other crafty dog mom would, I made her one! And it was incredibly easy! [Read more…]
How to Paint a Claw Foot Tub
I love our 1905 house, I really do, but there have some major issues with it. I like to think I’m a positive person so I’ve been focusing on the best aspects that the house offers. Like, say, the claw foot tub! [Read more…]
Bathroom Plans- Fairview Cottage
As I’ve shared about my new house, I’ve had one room that people are SO excited for- the bathroom! And me too! That claw foot tub is literally all of my dreams come true. To be honest though, the room needs some work to get it to the gorgeous room I know it can be!
Here’s the mood board with the new pieces I’m planning on adding: [Read more…]
Our First Month at Fairview Cottage
It’s officially been 30 days since we’ve moved into our house- Fairview Cottage as I named it. Things have been crazy busy around here getting unpacked and all set-up. I thought I’d take this chance to look how far we’ve come, what’s coming up around the house, the biggest mistake we’ve made so far, and a little about why we chose the cute town we did. [Read more…]
Don’s Room Progress Nightstand
Don’s room is slowly coming along. If you remember, the plans and before photos are here. I spent a week working on the floors, but decided to stop until the walls were painted (so I don’t damage the floors with paint). This week I continued in Don’s room- I painted the ceiling and closet white and installed a new fan! [Read more…]

A New Living Room Layout and an Edesign Review
When I first moved into my house, I knew I had two layout options that would work for our living room. I quickly set-up one and lived with it. The room felt choppy and closed off, but we were busy with other things so I didn’t put much thought into it. Here’s a picture for reference:

Office Progress and How to Stay Motivated when Unpacking
When we moved into our house, right away, I started working to make this house a home. I’ll be honest, I’ve probably worked TOO hard on unpacking, but I was just so excited to see my vision become a reality! I’ve waited so long to own this place!
As I’ve shared the progress, I started to get questions about how I was able to stay motivated while unpacking. I thought I’d pass on what I’ve learned as well as share some photos of my office. [Read more…]
Don’s Room Progress- How to remove paint from wood floors
This is our second week working on Don’s room (here’s the demo that happened on the first week)! His room was, of course, in the worst shape (which is ironic since we really want him to have his own space and feel like he’s at home). This week was full of dry walling and removing paint from the floors! [Read more…]
How To Paint A Fridge (without the paint scratching off)
We moved into our house 12 days ago. Since then, we’ve been unpacking and doing little projects to make the home feel like ours. I have a full kitchen painting job on the horizon (here’s the plan), but let’s be real, I’m scared to tackle it. So to pull the Band-aid off on our kitchen updates, I started by painting the fridge.
