Two of the biggest decorating hang ups are choosing colors and picking patterns. We are so afraid to get it wrong. It feels like such a big decision every time. Think about all the hours you’ve spent staring at paint chips or wandering the fabric store aisles. It doesn’t have to be so hard. There […]
What to Do When You Make Something and Don’t Like It
When you buy decor and don’t like it when you get it home, you always have the option to return it. You might regret the purchase or resent the time it takes to take it back to the store or you might even call it a loss and throw it in a closet, but you […]
Build a Simple Open Vanity for an IKEA Sink
When it comes to bathroom makeover, it seems that most bathrooms have 2 main problems: size and a builder-grade vanity. Of course there’s also lighting, layout, and the fact that there’s, y’know, a toilet, in the middle of the room to mess with the design aesthetics of the room. But since you can’t do anything […]
Terrarium to Geometric Pendant Light
When it comes to DIYing, making your own light fixture might seem a little bit intimidating. And, obviously, anything that requires electrical work requires extra caution — or a call to a local electrician if you need. Our guest today kept it simple and used a plug-in light, proving that it can be pretty simple to […]
Playroom Makeover with Built-In Cabinets for Storage
As many of you will have noticed by now — we are BIG fans of built-ins! A nice built-in storage area can completely transform a room and, of course, it helps it both to feel and (hopefully) *be* more organized. Decluttering and hiding visual clutter is one of the best ways to help your home […]
Monogram Wall Shelf and Gorgeous Home Office
A common hurdle in decorating is considering the tastes and styles of your other half. It’s not always easy to balance what you love with what your spouse loves or cares about in terms of decorating. It’s important to keep the peace (because a healthy relationship and marriage will always be more important than a swoon-worthy […]
Build an Easy Rustic Bathroom Shelf
A simple shelf is a great way to change up a room, add some character, give a little storage space. Check out how Karen built this easy rustic wall shelf for her bathroom — and she used fencing wood for insta-character! If your style isn’t as rustic, you could build this with new wood and […]
Making an Organized Closet Office Craft Space
I love small, organized spaces. They are like their own little worlds, separate from everything else in the world that’s cluttered and bigger than it needs to be. If you follow over on Facebook, you’ve probably seen a few tiny houses, which I just love. I feel like working with a smaller space makes you focus on […]
Upcycled Vintage Desk into Kitchen Island with Storage
Adding a kitchen island is a great way to add some needed storage and counter space to a kitchen. If you’re a builder, you can build a good kitchen island from scratch — or if you’re not, then you can start with a sturdy piece of furniture and upcycle it into the island of your […]
DIY Corrugated Tin Wall Tutorial
Adding an accent wall is a great way to update a room without the commitment of updating every wall. And because it’s just one wall, you can do something a little more flashy than if you were doing all 4 walls, and use that one featured wall as a major talking point and style statement […]
DIY Custom Window Mullions (Grids)
Updating a cookie cutter house to a custom stylish home usually means combining large projects (like entry renovations and updating cabinets) with smaller details like choosing the right paint color and window treatments. Jill has put a lot of work into her home (remember her range hood and trimmed arched windows?) , and this latest project is simple […]
Reclaimed Wood Floating Vanity
Reclaimed wood is so versatile, and it’s the perfect way to add instant style and rustic charm to any space. And the bonus is that you can often come by old wood for *free* — which is very very hard to beat! Lindsey needed a small vanity with lots of style, so she and her […]
How to Add Woodwork Trim Above The Fireplace Mantel
Remember how we have a huuuge crush on all pretty fireplaces? Some (okay, a LOT) of fireplace makeovers require a lot of work, a moderate expense, or fancy tools. BUT you can get the look of today’s fireplace feature with just some basic lumber and cuts, caulk, and paint, for around $60! Read below to see […]
Stair Banister Renovation Using Existing Newel Post and Handrail
I really love seeing the tutorials and projects we share here used in your homes. We poured so much love and energy into our stair remodel — I am just beaming that Trish took inspiration from it when she wanted to redo her builder-grade basic stair railing. But, rather than remove the newel post like we did, […]
Upcycle a Vanity Light Strip to a Hanging Pendant Light
Next up in our holiday guest series is the very talented LZ, who took a basic “Hollywood style” light strip from her bathroom and turned it into a chic rustic chandelier pendant light!
