A little addition to the big-girl room!

December 26, 2013 by Bethany Sy

Good morning friends! Did you have a wonderful Christmas? The girls weren’t really sure what was going on, but once they got to opening presents, they were definitely on-board with the whole Christmas thing. I think they’ll understand the magic of Christmas (and the true meaning) better next year. But we had a great day being home with our little family and making memories with the ... [ Read More ]

Herringbone Patchwork Accent Wall {REVEAL!}

November 15, 2013 by Bethany Sy

So sorry to leave you hanging yesterday. We had some last minute finishing touches to take care of before ‘after’ pictures were ready. But I was bound and determined to at least get a start on that blog post! So I’ll start right where we left off! A pattern within a pattern: We’ve used stencils from Royal Design Studio before (and love how durable their stencils are), so we were thrilled ... [ Read More ]

Herringbone Patchwork Accent Wall {Part 1}

November 14, 2013 by Bethany Sy

There’s been a lot of snot flying around over here... mostly from ME. Tis the season I guess, right? Last night I slathered Vick’s vapor rub on the bottom of my feet, turned on the vaporizer, chugged some Nyquil, and went to bed early. I hope the girls don’t get it as bad as I have it! Lucky for me, I can sit back and relax because we just finished a bunch of orders from our Etsy shop and a big ... [ Read More ]

DIY Toddler Bed / Fainting Couch {Part 2}

October 4, 2013 by Bethany Sy

We’ve been inching away at the toddler beds, and are SO excited about how they’re turning out! Many times, the picture in my head isn’t really something that’s logical... or structurally stable. But with Nick’s knowledge and arsenal of power tools, and my dream... SOMETIMES amazing things happen! Consider this Part 2 of a 3-part series... so don’t get ahead of yourself and skip to the end hoping ... [ Read More ]

Fainting Couch Toddler Bed Inspiration/Construction {Part 1}

September 24, 2013 by Bethany Sy

Some of my mommy-friends have small children who climb out of their crib before they’re even a year old. And other less-ambitious children don’t attempt to escape until well into their toddlerhood. My small children have made it to age two, and are still going strong (we’re thanking our lucky stars). But I know that dreaded day is coming, and I often think about that terrifying moment when I wake ... [ Read More ]
