It's hard to believe this room could get even better after building those arched mudroom lockers, but it's about to! We have this blank space to the left of the lockers that we desperately need for storage. Think off-season items, and a place to put things that need to be returned to the store. It would also be nice to have a location to put things that need to be taken to donation. Let's see what ... [ Read More ]

Mudroom Cubbies ~ Storage for hats & mittens
Hey buddies! Long time no talkie! I wasn’t planning on taking a full-on blogging vacay, but it turned out that way when I was stricken with bronchitis and strep just in time for Christmas. Miraculously, Nick and the girls didn’t get sick at all, and they did a great job of taking care of me. The girls love to play Dr, so they were covering me in a million blankets, taking my temperature, and ... [ Read More ]

How to Age Unlacquered Brass
When we think of brass, we think of shiny gold, right? But do you know what unlacquered brass is? Unlacquered brass is simply brass that doesn't have a protective coating. This means that, over time, unlacquered brass will naturally patina and tarnish to be beautifully aged. We love that!

Kids Closet Storage Ideas
When the twins moved into what used to be the guest bedroom, I knew I had to deal with the closet situation. Even if it wasn't filled with random photography equipment, old prom dresses from 20 years ago, and boxes of memories, this closet still isn't suitable to be a kids closet with all the storage needs that they have. Cringey, right? Se started out by removing all the shelves on the ... [ Read More ]
