We are going strong here in renovation land, and I gotta say, install day is quickly becoming the Kyla's really happy day. It's when everything comes together, and the vision that's resided inside my head transforms into reality. AHHHHH! Last Monday, I shared the tile install in the basement bathroom, and today I'm sharing the Karndean v[...]

Beautiful Distractions is a quick list of my favorite things. Be it currently coveting, thinking of, reading, or shopping for, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do, and happy Friday the 13th! With the basement renovation underway, I've been shopping for a simple wood mirror. Oddly more difficult to find than I thought it woul[...]
It's the most wonderful time of the year, but how the hell are the holidays here already? Knowing full well I'm a procrastinator, and when it comes to holiday decor, well I kinda fail; I signed up for White Buffalo Styling Co.'s BSHT 2016 Christmas Home Tour last August. Plenty of time to prepare and plan...and plan I did...in my he[...]
While meandering around the flea market a couple of months ago, I visited one of my favorite vendors. Since it was the last outdoor market of the season, this booth was filled with vintage treasures galore...but their Dorothy Draper dresser is what caught my eye. I'd been coveting one for years, but the price tag was always out of reach.[...]
Two more weeks until the One Room Challenge final bathroom makeover reveal. This week's post is a DIY of how to turn an antique dresser into a vanity. I'm at that point where I'm so close I can almost taste it. The light is shining bright at the end of the tunnel with only a few minor bumps in the road...backorder sconces and sink, but n[...]
How crazy am I to sign up for a summer home tour on moving day? Ummmm, very; and I'm hoping this post doesn't turn out to be a dud because there is a lot of blank slate below compared to all the other home tours. The only pieces I've hauled over in Layla (the lifted vintage monster truck) are my favorite pieces. The pieces that are most[...]
Last spring, I bought one of my first pieces of rattan furniture. What I like to call my entry-level step into the world of bohemian decor. Pretty soon, one rattan chair turned into two. Shortly after a side table arrived, followed by another. And after perusing Craigslist, my two chairs turned into three; only to be given the, "enough w[...]
Well, that was a bit of radio silence, huh? So sorry. I gotta tell you guys, that One Room Challenge really wiped me out. That and all last week my in-laws were visiting from Germany, oh and I was playing reindeer games last Sunday too! Let me tell you about it! Susan and William of House Of Brinson were shooting in town, so Ni[...]
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[...]
