Monster Toss Yard Game

June 13, 2016 by Bethany Sy

Nick and I love to entertain, especially in the summer. We’re pretty casual about it though… no twinkle lights and fancy mixed drinks with beautiful tablescapes. Just us and some wide open space and good conversation. Playing corn hole, ladder golf, or throwing a frisbee are always good outdoor entertainment when we’re barbequing with friends. And we’re always on the lookout for fun ideas that ... [ Read More ]

Rounded Wooden Doormat Tutorial

June 9, 2016 by Bethany Sy

My tutorial for our Half Circle Wooden Doormat has been very popular since I posted it almost 2 years ago. I love it when people email us their versions of our project… makes my DIY-lovin’ heart happy. I even noticed that one of my blogging friends from Shades of Blue Interiors knocked one out recently. So awesome! Since making my first version, I’ve learned a few things about this project and ... [ Read More ]

Stenciled Cinder Block Planter

April 28, 2016 by Bethany Sy

We're honored to collaborate with EcoScraps on this post, and were compensated for our time. All opinions and project ideas belong to us! I love the idea of using Cinder Blocks as planters, and have seen some really cute ones out there. As you know I’ve been making an effort to ‘freshen up’ our front porch (that we never use, but is very visible from the road), so I thought it would be fun to add ... [ Read More ]

Vertical Garden Hanging Gutter Planter

April 11, 2016 by Bethany Sy

It seems like this spring there’s a fun trend of MAKING EVERYTHING A PLANTER. And frankly, I love it. Rusty tool box? Why not marigolds! Old retainer box? Pop a succulent in! Grungy toilet you found in the ditch on the wrong side of the tracks? PEONIES! But seriously. I do really love the idea of repurposing things, so today’s project is right up our alley! When Home Depot invited us ... [ Read More ]

Mudroom Cubbies ~ Storage for hats & mittens

January 5, 2015 by Bethany Sy

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 ]

Patio Installation {Part 2}

July 3, 2014 by Bethany Sy

This has been ONE OF THOSE PROJECTS. The kind where on multiple occasions, we look wearily at each other and telepathically say ‘what were we thinking?’ …because we don’t have the energy to actually say it out loud. We left you last time at this point: Nick is such a hard worker… and actually ENJOYS this kind of stuff (to a degree), so I lucked out there for sure. Since we already had ... [ Read More ]

Affixing a mailbox planter #seriouslystrong

May 9, 2014 by Bethany Sy

Who knew that creating our Native American House Number Art for our entrance would create such a snowball effect and become a ‘porch transformation’! We recently shared how we made our Planter Boxes… and several of you have been asking about the mailbox planter that we have under the house numbers. I’m so glad you asked… because I’ve been excited to share this super simple project! I ... [ Read More ]

Build your own Planter Boxes!

May 2, 2014 by Bethany Sy

With the weather finally warming up enough to step outside, we’ve been hankerin’ to whip up some outdoor projects to give our sad exterior a pick-me-up and just generally make it feel more like home. Having built the pergola last year, we knew that come spring we would jump into it again. Evennnnnntually we need to put patio paver stones under the pergola (and extend it out even further), but that ... [ Read More ]

‘Drip Tray’ for Muddy or Wet Shoes

January 9, 2014 by Bethany Sy

Y’all. We have an epic problem. And I don’t use the word epic flippantly and without consequence like most of the universe. Do you see that? Melty, muddy snow. *hold me* We don’t have the good fortune of having a mudroom. Apparently 114 years ago, architects weren’t concerning themselves with mudrooms. (or linen closets, coat closets, or pantry’s... just sayin’) This is where we ... [ Read More ]

Building a Round Pergola

June 30, 2013 by Bethany Sy

Hi Friends! We finished a MAJOR project today… and do you really think we’re going to wait until Monday to share it? NO! So welcome to this random Sunday edition of Reality Daydream. Nick and I have ALL KINDS of lofty plans for our home and land… most of which are just dreams. But I like to dream with my rendering markers, so I drew up a little ‘someday’ aerial image of our property (this is ... [ Read More ]
