Let's get a closet makeover progress report, shall we? A flooring decision has been made! We chose luxury vinyl flooring from NovaFloor and narrowed it down to the Dansbee French Oak Pearl, French Oak Pebble, and White Ash Sand Dune. And since we like to keep it sporty, we asked TikTok and Instagram to weigh in and help make a decision. I[...]
Remember that walk-in closet renovation? Well, after publishing the before closet makeover tour, I came down with a case of covid. Everything came to a screeching halt for a week while I was quarantined in the bedroom. But as soon as my time was up, all systems were a go. We hauled out all the clothes, the old closet system including that[...]
When we first looked at this house, I remember walking up the stairs and my realtor said, "Wow, this house just keeps going...", followed by an audible gasp. She had found the primary closet. The addition that the previous owners built included one heck of a closet with his and hers sections, built-ins, and a washer and dryer. Ya, it's a[...]
Back in the day, I used to publish a home to-do list. No matter how big or small the project, it was written down on the list to hopefully be checked off.

When I gave the primary bedroom a makeover, the ivory headboard didn't pop as I wanted it. And that's sad because it's a damn good headboard that should shine. How did I want to proceed with the bedroom makeover? Yes, I could do paint, but I wanted something more luxurious. Limewash? Venetian plaster? How about some black textured wallpap[...]
Welcome to the crunch time portion of the One Room Challenge. Thus far, I've been feeling pretty confident, but that doesn't mean Imma let my foot off the gas pedal. There are still so many tiny details to wrap up, but first, let's review what's completed, shall we? The wallpaper was installed a couple of weeks ago by a wizard...li[...]
Oh boy, the halfway point is where the One Room Challenge can get sketchy. You think damn son, I'm rockin' this ORC! All I have to do is zhush it up, right? Wrong! This is when time starts to slip outta your hands because you get cocky. Case in point, instead of painting the French doors last weekend, I decided to sit in the driveway and[...]
