I promised you all the easiest Christmas DIY ever, and I am pretty sure this is it.  I have been searching high and low for a reasonably priced advent calendar for C to count down the season… In years past we have done a small trinket or toy, or 24 days of books but these all ended up being a one off for the year and not a solution we can pull out year after year.  … Read More

It is the week of fireplace makeovers!  Unintentionally, but it works… thankfully Fall has finally showed up around here & I would love to have a fire going right now.  A few weeks ago I completed another project over at #ProjectFamJam.  This time we tackled their modern double sided fireplace.  And just in time too, because the entire home was shot for Atlanta Magazine Home!!  … Read More

Today I am revealing the housewarming party I created with SunTrust Mortgage.  Not only through pictures, but through a video as well.  It is so nice to see the backstory of the couple, how important making a home is to them and the added bonus that I was able to help them introduce their new home to their friends and family was such an honor.… Read More

Chloe’s new room and loft bed are complete and we are all in love.  As I mentioned before, we transitioned her into my stepson’s old room as he has left for college.  My daughter, who is seven now, choose the initial design for her room from one of my design books and was adamant that her bed be identical to the inspiration.  … Read More

I hope you all had fun watching the eclipse yesterday!!  It was a little cloudy here, but we were still able to see it and celebrate the event with friends (& cocktails!).

With the loft bed built in C’s room we painted over the black walls (insert tear here) and added some panel moulding.  I wanted to share that you ever need to paint over a dark color with a light one, I highly recommend Kilz High Hide!!  … Read More

I have just tackled a long and overdue project in our home that had my husband and I looking at each other asking “Why didn’t we do this sooner?!”  We replaced all of our interior door hardware using Schlage products and not only do they function so much better, but it also gave the doors a completely new look.  Now I will start by prefacing, I loved the look of our original hardware.  … Read More
