If you're a student, you don't need me to tell you that back-to-school is right around the corner, which means it's dorm prep season! In my college days, we did not have functional storage furniture, bed risers, or Command Strips. Freshman year, my college furniture consisted of an old couch from the Salvation Army, if I was lucky, old hand-me-down decor. It's come a long way, but decorating a college dorm room is still a challenge. So I thought to myself, if I we[...]

I was sorting through boxes and stumbled across a stack of vintage gold — my old Sassy Magazines circa 1988 through the early 1990s. These date back to my rebellious teen era — the junior high and high school years. During this time, I shaved my head, wore a black leather motorcycle jacket, listened to Morrissey, and suddenly shifted gears to hip hop and Kriss Kross jeans. Before we start flipping pages, I gotta give props to Erica Reitman for talking about Sassy Magazine in a brainstorming[...]

Brick Fireplace Makeover Before And After
Last weekend I posted the 80s brick fireplace makeover before and after on social media, and I realized I never properly shared the process on the blog. Shame on me. There was no DIYing for this renovation. We needed professional help with the installation. My neighbor who builds homes shared the name of a mantel company with me — Material Bespoke Stone and Tile, and they conveniently had a showroom located in Chicago near The Mart. What seemed like an overwhelming project turned out to b[...]
It's no secret that the living room in my home has been a challenge to decorate. This awkward living room layout has frustrated me between the wall of sliding glass doors leading out to the patio, the French doors, and the fireplace.
