{one room challenge} Graphic Glam Master Bathroom Plans

It's the start of another One Room Challenge ... that wonderful {stressful} twice annual event that brings together a talented {completely crazy} group of design bloggers who challenge themselves to completely makeover one room in their house in just six weeks {err, it's really just five weeks}.  I work best under a deadline, so the One Room Challenge is just the kick in the rear I need to take on a big project and finish it! That's why I'm diving into the ORC for a fifth time ... View the Post

Creating an Organized Baking Drawer

Happy Friday, friends! I am so excited to bring you the first official installment of Five Minute Friday!! If you missed last week's introduction to Five Minute Friday, you can read all about it here {and see a collection of 16 awesome five minute projects}. I've told you before about my case of Organizing A.D.D. - where I start one organizing project and then suddenly find myself clearing out a drawer that I didn't even know need reorganizing. We'll it happened again! I started ... View the Post

Tiled Kitchen Island Ideas

It's week 4 of the One Room Challenge, and it's island time over here. That's not to say that we are taking a leisurely stroll through this kitchen makeover... there is no such thing as leisurely when you're redesigning a space in under six week. Instead, we're planning to take our kitchen island from boring to bold, but it's going to be a race to the finish line to get this project done! When we started planning the redesign of our kitchen dining area, I knew I wanted to make the space ... View the Post

Update Laminate Countertops With Paint Using Rustoleum Countertop Transformations

I have received a few questions from readers lately asking for DIY kitchen update ideas that provide a high end look without a renovation budget. Painting kitchen cabinets is always a good option (and I've got a tutorial to help you get a professional, even finish), but another of my favorite tips is to update kitchen counters on a budget with paint to create the look of high end stone. A while back I wrote a post about how to use a Rust-Oleum Countertop Transformations Kit to DIY granite look ... View the Post

Snowflake Tic Tac Toe

With Christmas just a week away, I am excited about today's Five Minute Friday tip, because it's one that we'll be able to enjoy throughout the winter season. As you may have noticed in past posts, we have a large tic tac toe board on our living room coffee table - a favorite of my boys - that is filled with the standard Xs and Os throughout much of the year. But I also enjoy switching things up for the holidays... I bought this tic tac toe board at Z Gallerie a number of years ago... ... View the Post

Home Office Ideas for Small Spaces

I dream of turning our basement bedroom into a dedicated office, but for now it's just a gathering spot for all the stuff cast out of other spaces in our home - in other words, it's a mess! Eventually I'll make time to tackle that major project and create my dream office space, but in the meantime, I've been doing most of my work sitting at the kitchen table or on the couch, which isn't the best for my productivity. I needed a better place to focus on my work, so I recently decided to claim ... View the Post

{shopping for style} Adorable Gift Sets For Only $4

I can't walk into Target without stopping to scope out the latest offerings in the Dollar Spot. I always manage to find something I "need," but this weekend I hit the jackpot, and I had to share my Dollar Spot find with you! It seems like I'm helping to host a lot of wedding and baby showers these days, and one of the biggest challenges for me is finding prizes to give the winners of the games without spending a lot of money.  I like to give gifts that are practical and useful, but also ...

Kate Spade Inspired Bar Cart Accessories

Last month I turned an old printer stand into a trendy bar cart as part of the Drab to Fab furniture makeover series that I worked on in partnership with Rust-Oleum to be displayed at the Denver Home Show. But I quickly realized the bar cart just didn't look as cool as I envisioned when it was empty - it really needed to be staged with bottles are bar accessories at the Home Show in order for people to get the full picture. That meant I needed to come up with a few quick items to stage the cart ... View the Post

Stylish Home Gym Ideas for Small Spaces

This post is sponsored by Cost Plus World Market, which you know is one of my favorite places to shop! This post also contains affiliate links.   Before having kids, we used one of the bedrooms in our house as a home gym. It wasn't very stylish, but it was certainly spacious. Fast forward a few years, and that exercise room became a kid's bedroom and we pared down our workout equipment and shoved it {quite literally} into the corner of the guest room. It's taken me nearly four years to finally ... View the Post

Stylish & Chic Thanksgiving Place Cards

With Thanksgiving just a few weeks away, I thought it would be fun to round up some quick and easy ways to create place cards to help you set your table in style! In keeping with the theme of Five Minute Friday, each of these place card ideas should only take you about five minutes! Peacock feathers are one of my favorite ways to add some unexpected color to a fall table, so last year I created these hand stamped peacock feather place cards. I love the modern simplicity of these quick ... View the Post

{decorating with style} Greek Island Inspiration

As Scott and I celebrated our 6th anniversary this past week, I shared three wedding inspired decorating projects here on the blog.  Then on Saturday, we had our first night out since Cooper was born!  We braved a torrential downpour in order to enjoy a fantastic anniversary dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Izakaya Den.  Seriously people, if you live in Denver and haven't eaten here - you are totally missing out!  And if you don't live ...
