I've been pretty MIA on the blog lately due to a lot of other things that have required my attention this year {adulting is hard!}, but I have one more project that I really want to accomplish before the end of the year, so I'm giving myself a deadline. I just can't get enough of the One Room Challenge because it provides just the motivation I need to prioritize a project and get it to the finish line! This time around, the project I'm taking on is our basement bathroom. One Room ... View the Post

Squeeze Extra Storage Out of a Small Bathroom
It feels like too long since we've talked organizing around here. But that's about to change, starting today! You know by now that I'm all about balancing function and style. I love to make my spaces pretty, but they also need to be practical! This is why I've never been a big fan of pedestal sinks. They look pretty, but I find them to be so impractical. Where are you supposed to store anything? For years, this has been my dilemma in our basement bathroom. Where do I keep the extra toilet ... View the Post
Reasons I Love You Valentine’s Day Countdown Banner
This post is sponsored by Target and American Crafts, but all opinions are my own. Read my full disclosure. My boys LOVED the Countdown to Santa calendar that I drew on our chalkboard wall for Christmas, so I knew I wanted to create a fun Valentine's Day "advent" calendar for February. When Target offered to send me a box of Valentine's themed American Crafts craft supplies from their One Spot, I jumped at the chance. As soon as the box arrived on my doorstep I ripped it open and was ... View the Post
{decorating with style} Nursery Space Plan & Furniture Selections
In my first post about the nursery, I talked about my design inspiration and color selections. Once we had settled on the paint colors, I knew it was time to get serious about purchasing furniture for the room. Since the room we are using as the nursery is quite narrow - measuring 9’ x 14’, with an additional 4’ x 2.5’ nook next to the closet, I figured we'd better start with some space planning. First I made a list of the furniture pieces I felt were necessary in the ... View the Post
Floor Drama – One Room Challange: Week 3
So much drama in ORC... What would the One Room Challenge be without a few challenges and a little drama? The good news is that I now have the new home office flooring of my dreams. The bad news is that, due to some unexpected challenges, it cost a lot more than we'd planned, and we won't be continuing these beautiful new floors throughout the rest of the basement as I'd hoped. Let me explain. After completely cleaning out the office (in last week's ORC post I showed you how I tackled ... View the Post
{organizing with style} Turning a Laundry Closet Into a Laundry Room
UPDATE: This red laundry room was my FIRST ever blog post. Since that time, I've completely revamped this laundry closet to create a lighter and brighter space, with temporary wallpaper, a hanging light fixture, cabinets and lots more storage. I'd love for you to check out the upated laundry room makeover. When we moved into our house four years ago, the laundry space was the first project that I tackled, and so it seems fitting that it be the topic of my first official blog ... View the Post
{link party} The Creative Circle – Week 11
Welcome to The Creative Circle link party - a place to share and find inspiration for your home! Does it feel like winter or spring in your neck of the woods? It was in the 70's yesterday, but this morning I woke up to a dusting of snow on the ground. I can't complain, because we can definitely use the moisture, but I was really loving the warm weather and the spring decor I'm seeing all over blogland is so cheerful and happy! In fact, my featured picks from last weeks party all feature one ... View the Post
{seasonal style} A Little Halloween Spookiness
When I was a kid, my mom always decorated our house for every holiday, and it was so much fun! But as an adult, I found that the only holiday I really took the time to decorate for was Christmas - and even then I would only put out about half of my decorations. But now that I have kids, I am going to make a much more concerted effort to decorate for the major holidays to help them, and me, get into the spirit! I decided to start with one room of the house for Halloween - baby steps! ... View the Post
{style inspiration} Dare to Go Bold: Volume 1
Earlier this month, I joined a few of my Instagram friends in starting a new hashtag, #MyBoldHues. We put out the call for everyone to tag spaces, projects, and moments full of color, and Instagram did not disappoint!

Whether it's a vibrant paint or graphic wallpaper on your walls, a colorful rug or piece ... View the Post
The New and Improved Denver Union Station and the Crawford Hotel
Although I am not currently practicing law {since I am staying home with my boys for a couple of years}, one my favorite parts of my job representing metropolitan districts was getting an inside look at some of the major development and redevelopment projects happening around Denver and throughout Colorado. Last spring, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to take a hard hat tour of Denver's Union Station mid-renovation {and, of course, I blogged all about it}. Ever since that time, I ...

Last month, I joined a few of my Instagram friends in starting a new hashtag, #MyBoldHues.

Each month, I'll be rounding up some of my favorite photos from the #MyBoldHues feed. Whether it's a vibrant paint or graphic wallpaper, a colorful rug or piece of furniture, or just one vivid accent in an otherwise neutral space... I hope these photos inspire you to go ...
