Week two of the FrogTape Paint Over Challenge is here! And it has been very busy over here this past week. Since last week, we have placed a lot of orders, made a lot of big decisions, injured myself (ugh) and may have chosen the absolute best color for the walls. More on that color in a minute. First things first, our main issue was the bed… As I mentioned last week, our canopy bed that was on order fell through. … Read More

So we have made do by incorporating garment rods into the bookcases we built about 4 years ago. And they have been perfect, until school uniforms came around.… Read More

With only 5 days left until the Kitchen Reveal (omg) I am trying to complete a few of our diy projects so the space will be ready! With our backsplash up (looks good, right?!) it was time to complete the transom detail above our windows. I decided to add these for two reasons… 1.)
