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 a[...]
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 o[...]
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[...]
Oh, One Room Challenge...you are the mistress I love to hate. Your pull is strong, my dear. When I don't participate, I feel left out...but when I do, I question my sanity. For those unfamiliar with the One Room Challenge...or The ORC as my fellow bloggers refer to it as...it's a challenge to makeover a room in only 6 weeks and document[...]
Can you feel the excitement in the air today? Today is the modern boho living room makeover final reveal day for the Design Off between myself and Jojotastic. All the hard work has finally come to fruition. In case you're new to this neck of the interwebs woods, Joanna and I got a little crazy and decided to lose all control of our[...]
You wanna know who's dripping with talent? Ashley Redmond from Decorist, that's who. This interior design superhero crushed the 3D renderings of the living room project. Jojotastic, you're going down girl. BTDubs, check out my review on this 3D home design software. It's pretty cool, and you don't have to be a professional interior desig[...]
Moving day officially arrived last Friday. It feels like it took forever, but it finally happened, and it only took 1 semi-truck plus 1 large package truck and 8 burly men to get us out of one space and into another. Oy! It was a crazy hot day without air conditioning on the hottest day of the year (that's a whole nuther story)...but we[...]
Do you remember my seriously sad patio? Bare, cold, and blah about sums it up. If you've been watching my Instagram, then you've already seen sneak peeks and some smack-talking to my Design Off challenger Jojotastic (aka Joanna). She and I are in this knockdown drag-out fight...errr, ya no, it's really more like a friendly little be[...]
