I’m finally in what I consider the most fun part of my office renovation and that is DECORATING! Chad has been working on my desk makeover, which just needed a (major planing and sanding) and paint refresh, but he gave it a really cool distressed top I can’t wait to show you and in the …
The laundry room was one of the first rooms we finished in the house (second to the girls’ room) and that’s mostly because it’s so small and it didn’t take much to finish. I’m not sure why it’s taken me so long to share but probably because it seemed too simple, but since it is …
I’ve been dying DIY lately, and even have a few fun ideas… but it’s time I’m lacking. Trying to balance my time lately has been a bit of a challenge and sometimes it takes everything being completely chaotic to get to a point where you can look at all the things and say OKAY, I …
Inspired by the beautiful Zac Posen summer floral bottle for Ecco Domani‘s Pinot Grigio, I created these fabulously stylish yet also whimsical coasters to complement it. They’re surprisingly easy to make and finished in just a few steps. I tested the paint pen with condensation and water overnight, and both the leather and the silver …
Our Master Bedroom in this house is quite large, making it a bit difficult to decorate, and seemingly taking forever. When we moved in, I knew what pieces from our old house/living & dining room, would be repurposed for the space, giving it a glam feel, and painted the walls a medium gray. One of …

From lamps to mirrors to simple home decor accents and mostly wall art, made famous by Curtis Jere (and Jerry Fels) a.k.a. C. Jere, these exciting designs are iconic of the 1960s decor. For so long, …
I was astounded when I first learned how easy it was to etch glass a few years ago and quickly bought a small bottle of etching cream to monogram everything I owned. And then it sat there amongst my DIY craft supplies for years unused. It wasn’t until I recently partnered with Ecco Domani and …
Today’s DIY is by Michele Redmon ~ And I love it! Can’t wait to try it! It’s ironic that I should be the one to do this project, since I was always so eager to leave my home state. But as Dorothy said, “There’s no place like home.” You can hate it, leave it, but …
I LOVE this project from Holly at In the Fun Lane for so many reasons but mostly because these large matchboxes that are so handy to have around are also so ugly to look at! And since they last forever, you have to look at the ugly box for the longest time {oh oh oh, …
I love a great nautical tabletop and rope napkin rings are so easy and inexpensive to make, you’d almost be a fool to buy them 😉 From rustic to nautical, Thanksgiving to the 4th of July, rope napkin rings work with nearly any color scheme or theme. I love them and use them year-round! Tip: …
