I’d been eyeing these macrame hanging planters on the Magnolia Market’s website for months. One cost about $25 and the other $18 and I needed (wanted) two.

The time was approaching…my baby girl was getting bigger and we would no longer need the crib anymore….NOOOOOOO! 😩 I wasn’t reeeaaaddyyyy! I also wasn’t ready to shove out big bucks for a new big girl bed either. We didn’t do the toddler bed progression with my oldest daughter. She went from the crib to… Continue reading DIY Reclaimed Wood Inspired Queen Bed
It was Thursday afternoon of Teacher’s Appreciation Week, and I realized I’d procrastinated a little too long for our first grade teacher’s gift.

I was inspired one day to refresh my girls’ playroom. They were spending the weekend at memaw and papas’ house (my parents), so it was the perfect time to do it uninterrupted. And let’s face it, I was kinda bored without them home anyway. (See the full refresh with before and after pictures here). A… Continue reading DIY Wood Wall Art
I decided to refresh the playroom because the toys and things were taking over every room in the house. It was driving me insane! And plus, it was just time for an update. This is what it looked for a few years. It doubled as another sitting room and a playroom. This phase worked for… Continue reading Playroom Refresh
It’s almost the end of October and I’m still (slowly) decorating the house for fall. I figured we’re only a few weeks into fall, so I have at least another month and a half, right? I’m sure I’ll have all of my decor out and displayed by the time Thanksgiving is upon us. Not too… Continue reading Fall Vibes
