In case you couldn't tell from my last post about brass lighting, I want to move sooooo badly. My brain has been on home decor overload (presently dining room interior design ideas have been top of mind), and I have the storage room to show for it...insert monkey covering its eyes emoji. The closing for the new house can't come soon[...]

Times up! Sound the alarm, the One Room Challenge final reveal deadline bell is ringing. Hands up. Put the decor down. Well kinda. It's the night before this post goes live, and I'm typing as fast as my little fingers can hit keys. I take that back, it's after midnight. But for all intents and purposes, this room is dunzo! Like many o[...]
It's Week 5 of the One Room Challenge, and right now, I feel like my entire life revolves around this project. Nothing else matters. I'm okay with being seven blog posts behind and staying up until midnight. It's crunch time, and next week is the final reveal. If you're new here and wondering what on Earth is this One Room Challenge[...]
Patience is not a virtue of mine. Albeit convenient, online shopping lacks immediate gratification. And when you're in a time crunch like the One Room Challenge where you pick one room to transform from hot mess to hallelujah and only have 6 weeks to do so, well, waiting a week for deliveries was probably not my smartest move. I'm now th[...]
Confidence is building with the home office design project as I push through Week 3 of the One Room Challenge. In case you don't remember, last week, I was styling the window sill behind the vintage Chesterfield and finishing the build on my new workspace. A last-minute decision was made, throwing me off my game plan, and I chose not to[...]
Phew! Man, the past week has flown by. Radio silence has ensued (sorry about that...it's not you, it's me), but I swear I'm not sitting on the sofa eating bon-bons watching Days Of Our Lives. (Is that show even on anymore? In college was addicted to it.) Anyhoo, I've been moving around furniture, styling vignettes, giving the UPS man hug[...]
Late last Spring I gave both my primary bedroom and guest room a major makeover. I was on design project overload, and oddly, it seemed like every other blogger on the planet was doing the same. What a strange coincidence. Everyone I knew was suddenly tearing their homes apart and documenting the process. Why are you guys stealing my thu[...]
It's been a little while since we've checked in on my Decorist makeover. No, no I didn't forget. Pinky swear. I've actually been working on it like a madwoman. The final board arrived in my inbox the day before I left for Germany. Since I was out of the country for 2 weeks, I couldn't order anything until after I returned. Bob, my neighb[...]
There's been some chatter of a super-secret, amazingly stupendous, Mid-Century Modern bedroom makeover project. Yep, I was on track for a very cool feature in a very cool magazine, but, weird shit happens sometimes and whomp, whomp. I think that game is over. It's okay though, I'm over it...not really. Insert laughing so hard I'm crying[...]
