{link party} The Creative Circle: Week 2

I have to start today's post by thanking everyone who joined us to help Kathy and I kick off The Creative Circle last week! I had a wonderful time visiting every post that was linked up - they were all so inspiring and it was so hard to pick my favorites {but I had to...so keep reading to see my top three}! This past week was full of some frustrations because I discovered that nearly all of the comments I was leaving on others' blogs were not being received. On some sites, my comments were ...

{seasonal style} A Very Colorful Christmas Home Tour

Happy Holidays! If you are new here, welcome! I am thrilled to have you stop by today for my very colorful Christmas home tour. Our home is very colorful all year round, so you'll find just about every color of the rainbow in our holiday home tour. But rest assured that our red and teal living room and our orange and gray family room are in completely separate areas - different floors even. As I lead you around the house, if you find yourself wondering how all of these colorful spaces fit ... View the Post

Room Makeovers & Design Plans

Designing a Comfortable, Modern Guest Room

Remember a couple of months ago when I showed you the very colorful design plans I was working on for a client's hip rooftop deck? Well that same client also had two extra bedrooms that he wanted to transform into stylish and comfortable spaces for welcoming guests. Today, I want to show you what we're working on in the larger of the two guest rooms, where we're even managing to squeeze in a little work space as well. When I toured the home for the first time, the room was literally a ... View the Post

{diy with style} How to Paint a Simple Skyline

Some people love wide open spaces and dream of a home with no neighbors in sight. Me on the other hand, I dream of living in a New York City high rise surrounded by skyscraper views. When we moved from our condo in downtown Denver to our current home {which is only half way to the suburbs}, it took me a long time to adjust to the quiet - I missed the sounds of the city.  And while most people want to head for the beach or the mountains on vacation, I love traveling to big cities!

{five minute friday} A Burlap and Chalkboard Fabric Christmas Card Display

It's a safe bet that Christmas cards will start showing up in your mailbox as soon as next week, so I wanted to share another fun and fast project to get you ready! Last week, I showed you how I dress up and fill up my Christmas card display with scrapbook paper while waiting for cards to arrive in the mail, and today I'm sharing the adorable display my mom created in just five minutes using burlap and chalkboard fabric! {To learn more about my mom and her style, you can read my introduction ...

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

DIY Dollhouse Makeover: Make an Off-the-Shelf Dollhouse Look Like Your House

When we were little, my mom created several dollhouses for my sister and me. She bought them unfinished, and then meticulously decorated and furnished them, using real carpet, tile, and linoleum remnants on the floors, and using fabric to create wallpaper for the walls. Those dollhouses were our prized possessions and I always envisioned creating a similar dollhouse for my own daughter someday. Since I have two sons, I kind of assumed that there wouldn't be any dollhouses in my future, so how ... View the Post

The Best Craft Projects of 2017 from More Than 30 Bloggers

Yesterday I looked back at my Top 5 Decorating and DIY projects of 2017, and today I'm talking crafts! It should probably come as no surprise that my most popular crafty project of the year also involves organizing (you guys love organizing as much as I do). Or maybe it made the top of the list because it's an IKEA hack... everyone loves those, too! I turned a raw wood MOPPE mini-chest of drawers into a stylish cord and charger organizer for my kitchen counter with some paint, stain, and ... View the Post

Reasons I Love You Valentine’s Day Countdown Banner

This post is sponsored by Target and American Crafts, but all opinions are my own. Read my full disclosure. My boys LOVED the Countdown to Santa calendar that I drew on our chalkboard wall for Christmas, so I knew I wanted to create a fun Valentine's Day "advent" calendar for February. When Target offered to send me a box of Valentine's themed American Crafts craft supplies from their One Spot, I jumped at the chance. As soon as the box arrived on my doorstep I ripped it open and was ... View the Post

{organizing with style} Washi Tape Shelves

Last week I showed your our organized "baby elevator closet" (if you want to know why we call it that, you'll have to check out that post), and you may have noticed the colorful stripes on the front of each of the shelves.  Washi tape!  It's hard to believe that just a few months ago I had never used washi tape for anything, and now it makes its way in to nearly every project I do.   I love my label maker, and it's always been my go to when I've needed to label ...
