{decorating with style} Honeymoon Inspired Guest Bath
Last week I relived a little of our honeymoon by sharing photos from the breathtaking Greek islands of Mykonos and Santorini, and telling you about one of the amazing hotels we stayed at - Mykonos Grace. We were so inspired by our travels in Greece that we decided to infuse some Mykonos Grace style into our guest room and guest bath. {Click here to see the guest room} Reminiscent of the whitewashed architecture of the Greek islands, Mykonos Grace was a ...

{decorating with style} Greek Island Honeymoon Inspired Guest Room
It's honeymoon week on the blog! Six years ago this week Scott and I were basking in the sun of the Greek Isles on our honeymoon. On Tuesday I shared some of our photos from the islands of Mykonos and Santorini, and I told you all about the amazing Mykonos Grace Hotel. Today I'm really excited to show you our guest room, and to give you the details on how our honeymoon, and that hotel in specific, inspired the design of the room. If you took a look at ...

Playroom Refresh Progress
It's Week 3 of the New Year New Room Refresh Challenge, which means just one more week until I get to share the final photos of the boys' new playroom. As I mentioned at the outset of the challenge, we actually completed this playroom refresh early because it was a Christmas gift to our boys, but I always like to walk you through each step in the process. During week 1, I showed you the before photos of the room, which was originally Beckett's bedroom before he and Cooper began sharing ... View the Post
Glam IKEA Lack Hack with a Magazine Sling
Thank you to Rust-Oleum for sponsoring this post. As always all opinions are my own. You can read my full disclosure statement here. If you've ever shopped at IKEA {or even if you haven't} you've probably seen the simple little side table they sell called the LACK. It costs a whopping $7.99, but it has SO much potential. A couple of months ago a neighbor offered up a LACK side table that she didn't need any longer, and I knew it would be a perfect addition to the Drab ... View the Post
Dollar Store Storage with an Anthropologie Inspired Gold Basket
As you may recall, a few months ago I turned an old printer stand into a rolling bar cart - it was one of four furniture flips I did for my Drab to Fab feature at the Denver Home Show. I installed several wine glass racks below the painted "counter top," but still had space to fill on the shallow shelf next to the glasses. The goal was to complete my furniture makeovers on a tight budget, so I wanted to accessorize on the cheap as well. I immediately envisioned a gold wire ... View the Post
The No-Sew Way to Reupholster Outdoor Cushions
'Out of sight, out of mind' is a real thing! Last fall, I had good intentions to get our outdoor cushions reupholstered so they'd be ready for this spring. But then we packed everything away, covered the furniture for the winter. I totally forgot about the cushions right up to the moment we uncovered them last month and I remembered that we couldn't use them in their current condition. I made a few phone calls and quickly learned that getting the cushions professionally reupholstered would ... View the Post
An Easy Trick to Hide Lamp Cords
Yesterday I came across a photo slide show of the gorgeous DC home that the Obama's will be renting when the leave the White House. I was just sitting down to write this post when I got sidetracked looking at the photos of the stunning mansion in its glorious shades of white and gray, and I had to laugh when I got to the photo of the home's basement family room. For all its high-end style, my eye was immediately drawn to a bunch of cords under one of the tables. It truly is a universal ... View the Post
{decorating with style} Designing a Gender Neutral Nursery
Long before I was ever pregnant with our son, Beckett, I started imagining how I would someday want to decorate a nursery. Scott and I had already made the decision that we would want the baby’s sex to be a surprise, so that meant a gender neutral nursery would be in order. Many family and friends acquainted with my Type A personality seemed surprised that I wouldn’t want to know the whether we were having a boy or a girl so that I could plan accordingly. I had a different ... View the Post
{shopping for style} CB2: Live and In Person
I just love receiving a mailbox full of catalogs to peruse - and while I don't have any problem shopping from catalogs or online, there is still nothing like the tactile experience of being in an actual store where you can touch and feel and sit on. In recent years, more and more of the stores that I had previously known only through catalogs have made their way to Denver, including Ikea, West Elm, and most recently Flor. One of my favorite catalogs, however, remains CB2, and there ... View the Post
Turning a Printer Stand into a Rolling Bar Cart
Thank you to Rust-Oleum for sponsoring this post. As always all opinions are my own. You can read my full disclosure statement here. The saying goes that "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," so I took the work out of a boring printer stand, and turned it into a stylish, rolling bar cart perfect for play and entertaining. This is the final makeover in my Drab to Fab makeover series for the Denver Home Show {you can find the other three here: 1920's ... View the Post
