Confession, ever since I visited Cambria, I've been dreaming of a kitchen makeover. Not that there's really anything wrong with mine, but...Pinterest, am I right? Some gals want diamonds, others tropical beach vacations...me...I long for a beautiful stone waterfall kitchen island, new countertops, a killer backsplash, and cabin[...]
Meet the tiniest room in my house that has been my biggest design challenge to date. An update on our modern bathroom makeover has been long overdue. Like waaaaaaay long overdue. Here's a quick walk down memory lane. Remember when the basement flooded, and we decided since we were forced to renovate, why not gut the bathroom? Well, every[...]
At the end of December, I dropped a bomb post stating I was certifiably insane. Yup, I started another bathroom renovation, but it was necessary. That basement bathroom was so dingy and yucky; there was no excuse not to update it. As long as we're getting dusty and Gerry and his crew were at the house anyway, why not knock it all out, ri[...]
The other week you got to read the doozy of a story about how The Boy broke the basement. Many of you sent me sweet messages saying, I'm so sorry...oh that darn deductible. How much will that cost to fix? Can it be repaired? Chin up. This is just so awful. How on earth did a sink do this much damage? You guys, these are all the same wo[...]
It's Week 6 of the One Room Challenge which means ding, ding, ding, times up! Words can't even express how excited I am about the bathroom makeover. I mean wow! The transformation is crazy, and I honestly can't believe I live here. It's wacky and crazy and out there and pretty much describes exactly what happens in my brain. Like if you w[...]
With all the Cubs hoopla, my Week 5 One Room Challenge post got a bit lost in the shuffle. But don't you worry that pretty little head of yours; we are on schedule and feeling fly y'all. Potty Paradise is almost complete, and Gerry and I are snoopy dancing on the Clé Tiles...okay, Gerry's technically not dancing like this, but I'm all...[...]
Seriously, how are we halfway through this challenge already? I'm exhausted and not even doing the heavy lifting. My poor contractor is dealing with my, "let's customize everything in the smallest amount of time mind frame"...oh, and hey Gerry, I also need you to fix a basement and yet another bathroom makeover. Can we all take a pause an[...]
Yep, I've been hearing that a lot lately...lots of folks asking me about the sofa I chose for the DesignOff. Today I'm going to break it down and talk a bit about the Chicago-based furniture company Interior Define, and why I chose the Caitlin sofa. Photo by Emilia Jane Photography I first heard about Interior Define a couple of yea[...]
Ooof! How has a week passed? Can you riddle me that? When you're knee-deep in the One Room Challenge, time flies when your swinging sledgehammers. Gerry and his team are hard at work and so am I...finally picked a tile for the bathroom makeover, and lemme tell you, it wasn't an easy choice. Wanna get into it? Let's roll! First and for[...]
