It's been a little quiet on the blog this week because I've been so busy behind the scenes to get ready for our next big project. The One Room Challenge kicks off again next week, and this time we'll be tackling our master bathroom. Putting together the mood board and design plans for the bathroom makeover reminded me that many readers have asked me to share a tutorial on how I create my mood boards, so today is the day! Whenever I begin designing a new space, whether for ... View the Post

DIY Dollhouse Makeover
There are those presents that the kids lose interest in right away (womp womp), and others that are still favorites years later (parenting WIN!). A few years ago, I did a last minute DIY dollhouse makeover for my boys, transforming an off-the-shelf dollhouse into a mini-me version of our own home, and years later, the boys (now 4.5 and almost 6) still play with it all the time and show it to everyone who comes over! When we were little, my mom created several dollhouses for my sister and me. ... View the Post

How Mood Boards Become Real Rooms
I really enjoy the design process - and a few weeks ago I showed you how easy it is to create your own mood board to kick start your next design project - but there is nothing more satisfying than seeing a design plan become reality. Right now, we are elbow deep in our master bathroom makeover - very much in the it get's worse before it gets better phase. Since we've still got a few more weeks of major mess ahead of us before the space will come together, I started thinking ... View the Post
{planning} 2015 List Making: Decorating and Organizing Plans for the New Year
Are you a list maker? I am! I use the Reminders app on my iPhone to make lists for everything in my life, from shopping lists and general to dos, to lists of future projects and plans for each room of our home. We spent last week enjoying lots of family time in the mountains, and on the way home we got stuck in traffic. Rather than being frustrated by the delay, Scott and I used the time {while the kids gloriously slept in the backseat} to review our project lists for each room of our house - ... View the Post
Basement Bathroom Reveal
It probably comes as no surprise that I'm running a bit behind schedule on the One Room Challenge makeover of our basement bathroom. We got a late start and worked right down to the wire. We are SO close to being done, but there are just a few more projects to finish before I take the final photos. But I do have one photo of the almost finished bathroom below. Here's a quick reminder of where we started... And this was the design plan that I came up with for our One Room Challenge ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 3: Paint, Tile, a Hole in the Wall, and a Givaway
How are we already nearing the half way point of the One Room Challenge?! If you're just tuning in, I'm making over my builder basic master bathroom and I've got big plans to give the space a new graphic glam look. Last week, I finally made a decision on which bold, black and white cement tile pattern to use in the space, and I loved hearing which one you liked best as well! This past week was a bit crazy, since I spent half of it in Salt Lake City attending SNAP, a ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 4: Tile, Mirrors, and Lighting Decisions
I swear that time speeds up as soon as the One Room Challenge begins. One week I'm feeling so on top of things, and the next I'm freaking out because there's only two weeks left and a list a mile long! But I'll keep pushing through, because were nearing the end of the construction phase, which means that I can finally start to see my the graphic glam plans for my formerly builder-basic master bathroom coming together. The wall of graphic cement tile ... View the Post
{one room challenge} Week 5: Ready to Add the Glam
We're in the home stretch of the One Room Challenge now! One week from today you will no doubt find me soaking in a hot bubble bath while watching TV reruns in my gorgeous new graphic glam master bathroom, but today the scene is much less relaxing. Paint shirts, dust, art leaning against the walls, and a mountain of shopping bags. In other words, the fun stuff! The past week has not been without a little drama and a few set backs, and I'm still waiting on the UPS man for a few key ... View the Post
15 Ways to Maximize Storage With Over the Door Organizers
I've heard a lot of people advise that you don't need more storage, you just need less stuff... and while we could all benefit from a good purging session, let's be honest, sometimes you really do need more storage! Not everyone has the luxury of a spacious pantry, coat closet, or laundry room, but that doesn't mean we don't need food, hats and scarves, and clean clothes. My biggest piece of advice for organizing when you're short on space is to take advantage of every available nook and ... View the Post
