DIY Blanket Ladder

DIY Blanket Ladder

    I bought these little hanging buckets from Michaels last year. I had this vision of them hanging on a ladder...not sure why...probably saw it on Pinterest 🙂 where 99% of my ridiculous ideas come from. I've wanted to update my blanket ladder, which was big and bulky, to something a little less so. [...]

China Hutch Upcycle

I didn't actually realize how long this project had been in the works until I sat down to write about it. For those who follow me on Instagram, you might remember the stories I posted about this hutch. I found it last year in May and HAD to have it. The problem, it is HUGE, [...]

DIY Toy Box

I think I officially have a toddler. I mean, when I spend the entire day either chasing the little munchkin or saying "No, Landon...no, no, no....Landon, that's not to play with" that equals toddler, right?!?! When he first learned what the word "no" meant, he would usually stop whatever behavior I was saying no to. [...]

Hi everyone!!! Wow, it feels like I've been gone for SO LONG! I mean, 2 months isn't forever but still, I missed posting for you and I'm glad to be back at it. Thank you for hanging in there while I took a little break. I was able to accomplish quite a few things around [...]

Nursery Side Table

Nursery Side Table

Landon is officially moved into the nursery! He has slept in his own room the last 3 nights. I'd like to say it's going well but...not so much. His first night was amazing, slept 8pm to almost 7am, only waking up twice for his pacifier. The last 2 nights and now today, however, have been [...]

DIY Floating Shelves

I am so excited to FINALLY share this project with you all! I have been working on it for what feels like forever. Wait...you mean...having a baby will drastically change the amount of time in the day you have to accomplish things?!?! Case in point, I've been trying to write this blog post for 3 [...]

Nursery Crib

Nursery Crib

Someone contacted me asking about some of the furniture details in Landon's nursery and I realized that I never shared the finished crib! No time like the present... I remember sharing a while back that I was having trouble finding a crib that I liked. I wanted white distressed wood. Everything I was finding in [...]

Changing Table Upcycle

Changing Table Upcycle

If you've learned anything from me over the last couple years, it's probably that I like white distressed furniture and it is extremely hard to find already finished. There is plenty of white furniture with no distressing and plenty of off white or cream with distressing and I even found a few bright white distressed [...]

Vintage Baby Cradle

Vintage Baby Cradle

If nothing else, at least Baby Blackwood has a place to sleep when he comes home for the first time. All of these projects have been so slow moving because 1) I procrastinate...my mom will attest to this and 2) I'm a perfectionist. However, I am absolutely IN LOVE with this little corner of our [...]

DIY Vintage Scoreboard

DIY Vintage Scoreboard

Nesting has officially set in...I'm feeling to pressure of the timeline and that this little munchkin is only 14 weeks away. Man...when I write it down like that, it seems even closer! I really haven't done much in the nursery yet other than getting the crib, a light fixture (which is currently sitting on the [...]

Room Makeover…Home Bar

Room Makeover…Home Bar

Last week when I was sick, I started re-watching the Gossip Girl series on DVD. It helped pass the 4 days I spent in bed. The problem...now I can't stop watching episodes...back-to-back-to-back. It is making me completely unproductive. All I've gotten accomplish today is eaten 2 meals, watched 4 episodes and styled the new little bar area [...]
