Y’all, it’s been an amazing summer! We’ve gotten really good at protecting our schedule and family time (especially in the summers), and have learned to say NO to almost everything. One of my favorite Jen Hatmaker quotes is ‘if it’s not a Hell Yes, it’s a solid NO’. Words to live by. Things that we DID say ‘Hell Yes’ to this summer, included our annual family camping trip (you can read about ... [ Read More ]

Halloween Sugar Skull for Trick or Treaters!
I chatted with you guys last week about how we’ve been challenged to create some wooden Harvest or Halloween themed yard décor in collaboration with The Home Depot and their DIH Workshop (that you can totally sign up for here!). I loved the concept, but knew I wanted change it up. Lots of different ideas were swirling through my head, and finally I landed on a skull for Halloween! But not a creepy ... [ Read More ]
Kids Craft: Salt Dough Suncatcher
It’s no secret that kids crafts are not my forte. I genuinely believe that creativity is NOT all-encompassing. For example, you might be great at painting, but terrible at sewing. Just because I’m ‘creative’ doesn’t mean that organizing a fun craft for my first graders is something that I’m good at, let alone enjoy. Don’t get me wrong, I let them paint scraps of wood, or sand a piece of old ... [ Read More ]
Repair Scratches on Furniture
We’ve had this wall in our kitchen where there’s a window AND a register on the floor. Plus it’s a walkway, so I had given up any hope that this area could be functional and have any organizational. But on a trip to IKEA, I happened upon the PERFECT piece to put here! It’s this cabinet (also comes in black/brown, and gray stain)that’s meant for putting shoes inside… but we use it for school books, ... [ Read More ]
A start on the attic…
Howdy friends! For those of you that follow along on our Facebook page, you know we’ve been working on making a sheet of wood veneer into a lampshade, as evidenced by this awkward Facebook LIVE of me staining flowers onto the wood veneer (I put on makeup for you. And a bra), as well as this Facebook LIVE when Nick hijacked my Facebook page and did a live broadcast of himself demonstrating how ... [ Read More ]

Patio Refresh + Video!
I’ve shared the story how we found / purchased our house, and 8 years later, it’s hard to believe it used to look like this: After a couple years of living here, Nick and I started talking about how nice it would be to have a nice outdoor space for entertaining and just hanging out. We dreamed up a rounded patio with a corresponding rounded pergola, because we like to be complicated and ... [ Read More ]

Because of the browned butter it totally tastes like caramel too! It’s got everything you've ever needed in a cookie and its the perfect blend of salty and sweet. So let get making our ...

The Painting of the Potting Bench
I think we can all agree that color is good in moderation, tastefully balanced with neutrals and textures. Of course if your taste is ‘farmhouse’ you might gravitate toward neutrals more. Or if you love boho décor, you might be brave with vibrant color and patterns. There’s no right or wrong! So when it came time to make a choice about what color to paint our potting bench, I was ...

Howdy friends What’s hangin? Sometimes, we have a piece of furniture that seems like it needs an update, but we’re not sure what? TELL ME YOU’VE BEEN THERE. This little secretary desk was given to me by my sister-in-law’s parents, and I LOVED IT. But after living with it for awhile, I decided it needed something.
