One Room Challenge

Basement Bathroom Makeover: Weeks 4, 5 & 6 {One Room Challenge}

Well, this is a first. It's week 6 of the One Room Challenge and we are JUST. GETTING. STARTED. I didn't post an update during weeks 4 or 5, because there were no updates. We dealt with a lot in October, including a death in the family, and the bathroom makeover just fell to the bottom of our to do list. Considering we're six weeks behind, I thought about just throwing in the towel. But I also really want this project done before the holidays {the new vanity has been sitting in a box in ...

How to Add Legs to an Ikea Bookshelf

It seems like just about everyone I know has an Ikea Expedit bookshelf {or it's new replacement the Kallax} somewhere in their home. These bookshelves are very basic, which makes them very versatile! The price is low, but the possibilities are endless! I've seen them used {very stylishly} as dining room banquet seating, entertainment stands, room dividers, office storage, playroom storage benches, changing tables, laundry room storage, and bar/buffet storage, just to name a few. We bought ... View the Post

{five minute friday} A Pretty & Easy Way to Hang Wreaths on Front Doors

Fall is just around the corner, and I'm excited to start swapping out some of my summer colors for fall decor in the next week or two. Last year, I found some gorgeous peacock feather wreaths and I can't wait to hang them on our front doors again this year! Our front doors are quite tall and have frosted glass panels, and as a result, a lot of standard wreath hanging methods don't work well for us. I don't want to put any nail holes in the front of the doors, and those over door metal wreath ... View the Post

{style inspiration} Want the Look for Less? Knock it Off!

You know the saying "you're eyes are bigger than your stomach"? Well, when it comes to my decorating wish list, often my eyes are bigger than my budget. And I know I'm not the only one! It's so easy to walk through a store or flip through a catalog and fall in love with an item that you just can't afford! A good shopper knows that with a little patience and perseverance, you can often find a similar item for a much better price. I've always been proud of my skills when it comes to bargain ...

{featured} I’m Sharing Tips for Organizing Toiletries

It's that time of month again when I share some of my favorite organizing projects over at Pretty Well Organized, and today the topic is toiletries. Scott and I are fortunate to have a large bank of six drawers in our master bathroom, which provides us plenty of space for organizing all of our smaller toiletries. I first organized these drawers when we moved into our home, and more than five years later the organizing system is still working well for us. That hardly ever happens! Normally ... View the Post

I Spy… My Work in Print

Oh my goodness! I am over the moon to finally share a little secret with you... my work is in print for the very first time! Last fall, the Editor of 5280 Home reached out to me asking if they could photograph my boys' rock-and-roll "studio" under our basement stairs to be featured in the inaugural "Best of Denver Design" issue as the "Best Playroom in Denver." Um, yes please! 5280 Home is the quarterly shelter publication of 5280 Magazine - a staple of life in Denver. For those who ... View the Post

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
