The floor drama that I told you about last week took some extra time and slowed us down a bit, but we quickly got back on track and checked two more big items off of the home office to-do list. As a reminder- here's where we left off last week... When we first moved into our house, the home office (which is actually just a basement bedroom) had bypass / sliding closet doors. Here's a picture from move-in day back in 2008 when the room was still empty. In the fall of 2019, when I was ... View the Post

Game Room Makeover: Week 2 {One Room Challenge}
The One Room Challenge is off to a good start, starting with some progress on the "home theater" end of the basement. We still have a long way to go in order to turn this space into the Ultimate Game Room over the next six weeks, but we've already enjoyed a couple of new and improved family movie nights in this space thanks to the updates we've completed so far. Our Plans for the Ultimate Game Room Be sure to check out all the before photos and design plans for this basement family room ... View the Post
{organizing with style} Floor Plans That Make You Go Hmmm…
I'm flashing back to the early '90's with that C+C Music Factory reference, but it's the best way I can describe today's topic. I think we've all experienced those moments - when house hunting or living in our own homes - where you ask yourself what the architect and builder were thinking when they planned the space. We certainly wondered that quite a few times when we toured our {now} home for the first time and were considering making an offer. Why do those linen closet doors open into ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 5 – Come Together…Right Now!
Week 5 of the One Room Challenge is when things finally start to come together! All the little details that I've been working on for the past five weeks are falling into place, and the big picture is taking shape! Week 5 is definitely the most exciting in each One Room Challenge, but also the most stressful. The countdown is on but the to do list is still too long. Here's a little reminder of where we started... the before picture and the design concept: One of the main things ... View the Post
{decorating with style} A Temporary Exercise Room
Five years ago when we moved out of our downtown loft and into a bigger house, we had more rooms than we knew what to do with. One bedroom became an office, one a guest room, I set up my easel for painting in one room, and still another bedroom we set up as an exercise room. But we knew that sooner or later we'd start a family and that some of these rooms would become bedrooms for our children. The room where I used to paint was the first to be converted - it ...

Linen Closet Organizing Hack
We've been spending a lot of time in Breckenridge this summer, and it's a beautiful place to be! We are very fortunate that my parent's have a house there, and it provides a great place to escape to cooler weather and relaxed days. But even when were are in Breckenridge on semi-vacation {both working remotely much of the time}, the day to day stuff still has to get done. Meals cooked, dishes cleaned, laundry washed. The other day, when I opened the linen closet to grab out the broom to ... View the Post

{five minute friday} The Fastest Way to Refresh Wood Furniture, Trim and Floors
If you are following along with my One Room Challenge progress, then you know that I am redesigning our master bedroom and that one of my goals was to create a comfortable reading nook in the corner of the room. I picked a cozy new chair as well as an ottoman so that I could kick back and put my feet up. Since my budget is tight, I did a lot of online shopping to find an inexpensive ottoman - but sometimes when you go cheap, you get what you pay for. When the ottoman arrived, it was quite ...

Sophisticated Superhero Framed Art
Thank you guys for all of the love and sweet comments on our recent makeover of the boys' bathroom! I am super passionate about finding ways to balance my love of modern style with mom-life, and I'm always striving to create kid spaces that can grow with them and won't need to be completely redecorated again next year. All of these factors were at play when the boys asked for a superhero themed bathroom. I loved the challenge of giving them exactly what they wanted while also making it fit in ... View the Post
{seasonal style} My Modern Glam Christmas Decor Wish List
I usually wait until Thanksgiving to decorate for Christmas, but I start planning, scheming, and dreaming long before that!

Christmas Book Countdown & Reusable Gift Tags Made with Cricut
Last week, I shared a post with some of our favorite family Christmas traditions, and at the top of the list is our Christmas Book Countdown. Each year, we create a calendar on the chalkboard wall in our kitchen, and the boys cross out a number each night to see how many days are left until Christmas. Then they rush to the big pile of wrapped books in the living room to find the one with the matching number. This year the tradition got a major style upgrade, which will also be a huge time saver ... View the Post
