It's Week 5 of the One Room Challenge, which means we have just one week left to finish the boys' shared bedroom. Less than that really, because I need time to photograph it in order to share it with you on reveal day next Thursday. You'd think that by now, I'd have this six week makeover thing down to a science... that I'd be planning and allocating my time so well that I could maybe finish a day or two early rather than working right down to the wire... but no. It never seems to work out that ... View the Post

Easy Bookshelf Style Upgrade
About a year ago, I added a bookshelf to our second floor hallway, but I've never really loved it. It was budget friendly, and it's perfectly functional, but it's not super stylish. I have big plans to transform this bookshelf though with some simple changes, and I'll be sharing each step. Today - in part one of the makeover - I've added a vinyl detail down the side of the bookshelf, and I'm excited to show you how easy it is to do! Thank you to Cricut for sponsoring this post, and thank ... View the Post
{diy with style} Curb Appeal Dreaming…
Our urban neighborhood has lots of perks, like being within walking distance of great restaurants, shops, and even the most charming little library. But one thing you don't get in the city is a big yard. I'm not complaining. I wouldn't trade our location for anything. But we really need to make the most of our limited outdoor space! Right now, our front landscaping leaves a bit to be desired. I'm determined to change that this year, and I'm partnering with Roundup® For Lawns to make that a ... View the Post
Sesame Street Birthday Party Ideas
I am relieved happy to report that our second attempt at Beckett's birthday party was a huge success! {If you missed all the drama, you can read the full story of why the first party had to be cancelled, leaving me in tears.} This past Saturday, we managed to entertain 30+ toddlers without too much chaos, and I heard more than one little boy declare it "the best party ever!" on his way out the door. Now I fully realize that this is one of those "you say that to all the girls" ... View the Post
DIY Photo Transfer Tray
With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I wanted to show you how easy it is to transfer one of your favorite photos to an acrylic serving tray! It makes a meaningful gift for your significant other, or even your best friend, and the possibilities are endless! For my tray, I chose a photo from our honeymoon in Santorini, Greece, and overlaid the quote, "It's not where you travel...It's who you travel with!" Thank you to Adobe for providing the supplies for this project! This post ... View the Post
{One Room Challenge} Week 2 – A Whole Lotta Painting Going On
For those who missed my announcement last week, I am a joining in the One Room Challenge as a link participant! That means that I have only 6 weeks to complete Beckett's big boy room... well, it's not six weeks anymore, because here we are already at week 2! Last week I shared all of my plans for the room, including the mood board and the long to do list, and this week I'm back to share a report on our progress. It's no exaggeration to say that the only thing I've been doing for the last week ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Garage Makeover Week 4: Let There Be Shelves
I swear that there is some kind of One Room Challenge time warp that occurs because Thursdays seem to come too quickly! It's already time for the week 4 progress update, which means only two weeks left to get the garage makeover completely finished. Getting the "stuff" back in shouldn't be a problem, but it's yet to be seen if I'll be able to get all of the fun and creative projects done. That's a problem for tomorrow though... today let's celebrate what got done this past week. Be ... View the Post
{entertaining with style} Tutorial for Creating the Party Hat Banner in Photoshop
Last week I posted about my son Beckett’s fun “One Year in a Flash” themed birthday party. Both at the party, and since sharing it on the blog, people have been asking questions about how I made the baby face/party hat banner, so I thought I would share the process... I started with the monthly photos of Beckett that I had saved on my computer. I opened each monthly photo in Photoshop, and used the Quick Selection tool to select just Beckett’s cute little face. Because of the ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Curtain Call
A couple of weeks ago I dubbed the status of my progress on the One Room Challenge "the storm before the calm"- and now that Week 5 has come and gone, I am finally starting to see some of the calm. In all of my design projects, it always gets worse before it gets better, and I am happy to report that I can now see a glimmer of the calm as the completed space starts to really take shape. To quickly catch you up, I am participating in the One Room Challenge for which I am ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 3 – The Rock & Roll Playroom Got a Dose of Not-So-Heavy Metal
Another week of the One Room Challenge has come and gone, and I'm definitely starting to feel the pressure, especially since I'll be out of town for five days next week traveling to and attending the SNAP blogging conference. I am so excited to be headed to SNAP for the first time and for the opportunity to catch up with some of by blogging girlfriends, and to make lots of new friends. But the timing of the conference - during week 4 of a 6 week design challenge - is, shall we say, less than ... View the Post
{style inspiration} The Farm to Table Concept Meets Interior Design
Last fall, I had the opportunity to attend the HGTV Blogger Block Party in NYC where one of the guest speakers was Genevieve Gorder. I used to rush home from law school to watch Genevieve on Trading Spaces every afternoon wishing that I was studying interior design rather than contracts and torts, so it was a total full circle moment for me to meet her in my role as a design blogger! Genevieve's presentation focused on her trend predictions for 2016 and 2017, and today I wanted to give you ... View the Post
