Over the past couple of months I have been sharing photos of my home. Today I am sharing photos of our upstairs bathroom. The pros: Two words- beautiful claw foot tub! Also, the room is supre bright. The cons: Totally bland. Where does one hang a mirror? Right now I have a cheap one [...]

After a long hiatus, I’m back!! Things are good here, I’ve just have not been in the mood to blog. It was nice to take a few weeks off and not think about the blog. I’ve been knitting, going to the gym, cooking without taking pictures, and chilling in front of the tv. We have [...]

Over the past couple of weeks I have shared pictures of our office and our living room. Today I thought I would keep the trend going and share pictures of our living room. When we first moved in our living room looked something like this. The before picture looks awful. The big dark Ikea shelf [...]

Although we moved into our house two years ago, I have nto done any work in the kitchen. Our kitchen is awful. It is a dark, black hole dark and I have been dreaming of renovating it since we moved in. Since we have not done a thing to our kitchen, I have never featured [...]

Last week I found a DIY from Martha Stewart with on making oversized paper pompoms. Martha sells kits to make these pompoms. I am telling you, these are so easy that you don’t need a kit. Being too cheap to buy the kit, I made these pompoms on my own for a brunch I hosted last Sunday. Below [...]
