How to Create an Inviting Guest Room that Appeals to All 5 Senses
The countdown to the holidays is officially on, and for many people that means hosting out-of-town guests! To help you prepare, I thought I'd share some tips for creating a truly welcoming guest room by appealing to all five senses. Making family and friends feel comfortable in your home is about more than simply creating a pretty room. A room that looks nice is certainly a good start - but the real question is, how does the space make guests feel? When visitors stay in our guest room, I want ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Laundry List: Week 2 Update
The first week of the One Room Challenge has already come and gone, so it's time to check in on the laundry and linen closet makeover. Last week I showed you the concept and design plans, and this week I want to talk about the specifics, including what was working and what wasn't in the former space, and what's on the to do list. But first, you probably want a progress update. Let's see...I caught up on about 6 loads of laundry. {Nothing like having to disconnect the washer ... View the Post
{style inspiration} Interior Design Inspiration from the 2016 IKEA Catalog
Every year I eagerly sit down with my hot off the presses IKEA catalog and begin marking the pages all the items on my wish list with colorful sticky flags. But this year I got impatient waiting for the 2016 catalog to hit my mailbox, so I decide to start my browsing with the digital version instead. And even now that my paper catalog has arrived, I'm pretty hooked on the online version! When I watch tv and movies, I sometimes have a hard time focusing on the show because I'm so ... View the Post
How to Organize a Nursery Closet
Babies may be little, but their stuff sure can take up a lot of space! That's why I knew that the small closet in our nursery was going to need some upgrading in order to be functional both now, and in the future. The closet is narrower than a typical reach in closet, and it originally had sliding doors which only allowed half of the closet to be accessed at one time. Each sliding closet door was only 17.5 inches wide, making it very difficult to access the ... View the Post
Modern Rooftop Deck Makeover
Denver weather is unpredictable in the spring, so I knew it was risky to take on an outdoor project for the One Room Challenge. We've had snow no less than 3 times during the five weeks of this challenge, and rain and thunderstorms everyday this week leading up to reveal day. On Monday, I had resigned myself to the fact that I likely wouldn't be able to take photos of our new rooftop deck in time to meet the end ORC deadline. Fortunately, a brief break in the rain gave me the hour I needed ... View the Post
Tiled Kitchen Island Ideas
It's week 4 of the One Room Challenge, and it's island time over here. That's not to say that we are taking a leisurely stroll through this kitchen makeover... there is no such thing as leisurely when you're redesigning a space in under six week. Instead, we're planning to take our kitchen island from boring to bold, but it's going to be a race to the finish line to get this project done! When we started planning the redesign of our kitchen dining area, I knew I wanted to make the space ... View the Post
An Easy Way to Hide Laundry Room Faucets & Hoses
Your laundry room is a hard working space, but it doesn't have to be all business and no pleasure. I find the chore of doing laundry much more bearable in a pretty space, which is why I worked hard to strike a balance between beauty and function when designing the plans for my recent laundry closet makeover. When I drew up the initial design for the space, I envisioned hanging four framed paintings above the washer and dryer, but below the cabinets. However, I quickly realized a kink in ... View the Post
{five minute friday} Extra! Extra! Greeting Cards
Before I had kids, when a friend had a birthday or a baby, I would stop and pick up a card on my way home from work, or I'd quickly run into the store for a card on my way to a birthday party or wedding. But after kids - well, there is no such thing as a quick stop at a store, nor is there any extra time on the way to an event... so now I have to plan ahead. Planning ahead means that I've started to stock up on greeting cards, picking up a few cute ones here and there when I'm at Target, or ... View the Post

{decorating with style} Tutorial for Painting Perfect Ombre Wall Stripes
As I told you in my first nursery blog post, I decided to go bold and paint our nursery with ombre inspired stripes that graduate in color - from dark at the floor, to light at the ceiling - so that in the end, the effect would be similar to that of a paint sample strip. Click here to read about our color selection process. These were the five Benjamin Moore colors we ended up selecting (which may appear different depending on your screen settings).
